NASA denies there are living 'insect- and reptile-like creatures' on Mars

But they’re changing the name to Barsoom anyway.

Why not go to NASA itself for the truth?

Revealing Mars' True Colors: Part One

"Getting the colors right is not an exact science," says Bell. "Giving an approximate view of what we'd see if we were there involves an artistic, visionary element as well – after all, no one's ever been there before." However, great pains are taken to be as accurate as possible, short of going there ourselves.
To give people a sense of being on Mars, scientists combine views through telescopes, data from past Mars missions, and new information from the current mission to create a color-balanced, uniform scene. Color-corrected mosaics simulate the view a person would see if all the images in the mosaic were taken on the same day, at the same moment.

The Youtubers have a valid point. NASA can make Mars any color they want.

That looks like a Road Cat....................

[rawcatslyentist]

That’s a rather straight answer from Never A Straight Answer.

Of course, it's an old subject for some...

"Revealing the True Colors of NASA …."

From the startlingly simple process of merely reinstating the original Viking surface color data (now available at certain official NASA websites), so the flag appears as "normal" (!) (like in this version, produced by Barry Arneson in 2001 – below), one gets the distinct impression that "certain individuals" in NASA – three decades ago – for some arcane reason, didn’t feel Americans were "ready" then … to see the real "Red Planet."

Well, it is THE ANGRY RED PLANET.

Everyone knows the surface of Mars is too hot to support life! And that’s why the monsters all live underground.

[philman_36]

Forget the dress - what colour is MARS? Some people say the planet looks a lot more like home than we think

The debate has raged since the 1970s when Nasa's Viking 1 lander became the first spacecraft to touch down on the red planet/ Its initial images revealed what appeared to be a blue sky (right), but in reality Nasa says the planet has a red/orange sky. On the left is a processed image of what Nasa believes Mars to look like

As I said...it's been an issue for some time.

That is real. Back when the first picture of the surface of mars were about to come in, the NASA techs color tuned the high end monitors in the room with all the press watching. When the color images came through, the sky was blue and the ground was covered in green patches. The person in charge of the project rushed up to the monitors and cranked the red component to max to show the ‘real’ color. Another case of facts not fitting the consensus view.

[PIF]

Image on right (with the blue sky) was on monitors color calibrated minutes earlier. Image on left is the consensus view of what the color SHOULD be.

We have enough problems right here on earth with Guam possibly tipping over with all those people on the island...it’s near time.

If Fox News puts up a story denying the existence of life on Mars, according to liberals the claims must be true.

If Trump tweeted that there was no life on Mars it would be an impeachable offense.

[Boogieman]

I would not be surprised if CNN is prepping a story about Trump’s collusion with Martian space insects.

Apropos of nothing, I had a teacher who, when punishing kids for surfing the web during class, would make them write the latest meme on the chalkboard, but they were only allowed to write it once. /rimshot!
