Okaaaay
What does the shade of the rocks and sky have to do with habitibility?

If NASA wanted to skew the pictures & data to fool the public, they would make Mars look more applealing, and maybe even make up evidence of life or signs of life. That would result in greater public support for goverment funding of more Mars probes and even manned missions.

My question for the woo-woos: Why would NASA cover up data about Mars as you allege when revealing everything would be benefical to NASA?
