Investigation shows that there are several indications that NASA is tampering with the colours, and changes them from an Earth-like environment into a red inhospitable environment. But it seems that the young scientists at Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) are not convinced with this.

I'm going to have to reserve judgment on this, as I know embarrassingly little about image manipulation and the type of color adjustments you all are doing here. I have to say, though, there are some very compelling images here.
I have a question regarding the color adjustments. Forgive me if this is offensively elementary: If an image is taken of Mars and the dense redness you see is really there, can you later adjust the colors to cause, for instance, the sky to become blue? Or is this impossible? Would that type of color change be a different task than the one you all have performed?
