I think NASA was pretty clear about what color filters were used for each of these images. Of course they will look different, but nothing is moving.

I've reopened this topic for a couple of reasons.

First, to Extrasense, please keep your new found photos in this thread only, with whatever comments you have about them. While we are happy to have one thread about this going, I would ask for your consideration by not starting a new thread each time.

One issue we will not bend on--keep any personal attacks off the site. This will be the last warning you get about that, if you keep up those kind of comments you will be permanantly banned.

Second, I have absolutely no idea what this picture is supposed to show. Would you please tell me what you think you see here?

Well, Vanderl seems to think she knows what ES's editing job is supposed to mean...
So, Vanderl, why don't you tell us (instead of gloat)?

Rock 'n' Roll!

Seriously, ES, what is your point with this picture? If NASA 'does not want us to know' (whatever the heck the picture is supposed to represent), why even release the picture?

If this topic is reopened perhaps it should be moved to Totally Off Topic? What you think? There certianly isn't any alternative theory expounded jsut stupid pictures with obviously nutty claims to them. if they were posted as a joke then fine. but to actually say that a couple of rocks on mars are having sex is .. well .. dumb.

Your bored, arn't you ES?

I would pass that as unclasified. Does anyone Find anything offensive about these rocks?

Extrasense,

Leave the rocks alone!

The rocks are cool.

You are pointing to the importent problem with NASA work, and the movies.

They would not make the same shot twice, unless it is with different filter.

I guess you might tell those geniuses, that they need make one more shot by the panoramic camera on a particular setting, to allow for dependable movement detection.

Nevertheless, working with what I have, I've found some cases where it is pretty hard to attribute changes to the filter change.

First, I am not in regular contact with anyone at NASA.
Second they don't make an assumption that anything is moving except when the MER actually moves it.
Third, the panoramic images are composed of individual shots, and you can see some objects at the edges in multiple shots from the same angle with the same filter when looking at these. Even then, the shadows will change a bit.

In the future, if you are making these blink movies, keep to the same filter setting, otherwise the color difference overwhelms anything you might be trying to point out in terms of some real movement.

No one on this forum except you believes that there is advanced [civilized] life on Mars. If you are planning to make a case for it, you can start by trying to make your evidence a little more standardized, so that effects that aren't what you are trying to show aren't more prominent than what you are pointing out.

Here is the movie of Desert Monsters Hiding In Sand.

Although it is affected by filter change, it does not seem likely that the angle pointed heads disappeared, and a depressions appeared just because of that:

Yeah. And besides, if it were a monster, which I doubt, it probably would have eaten the rover!

Here's an idea: let's send ES to Mars. Wooohoooo!

What is the change in these Photos? (the NASA Babies one)
Minutes, Hours or just light filter?

That big rock in the center towards the right side, looks like a corner is breaking or something?

Am I close?

The sand monsters, looks like ooze spilling over the craters edge, to the right?

Are these the names of this photos, Babies on Mars and sand monsters, if it is, the crew at NASA is even more bored than I claimed you were ES.
