If it was a case of progressive JPEGs then the image would the best quality on the top part, the first to be received, and the worst on the lower part, that would still be receiving the data.
The advantage of progressive JPEG is that if an image is being viewed
on-the-fly as it is transmitted, one can see an approximation to the whole
image very quickly, with gradual improvement of quality as one waits longer; this is much nicer than a slow top-to-bottom display of the image.

I think this is a case of an image made with several strips, and some of those are not of the same quality as the others, just that.

If you wanna see an underground base, check this out.. also the anomaly like the one you posted Undo, is in the same area..
I think you will find it interesting, and the features are growing in numbers everytime google earth refreshes itself...
What is it?

Comparative analysis of why the highly defined area is so much more superior and leaves me wondering, if they spent all that money to send the thing there to take good pics, why this area came out clear as a bell, but the rest is all gooky

As I mentioned most of these photos have been retouched. Through some quirk of fate I not only received on that wasn't retouched but received the actual negative.

3. I’m not advertising, Zorgon blew my “cover” here. I would have preferred to remain anonymous.
Any more questions?

Do you refer to the different colors of the various segments pasted together in this area? That's perfectly normal in Google Earth, because GE uses images from many different satellites, using different color filters in their cameras. I know people who can actually tell which satellite imaged a certain GE area just by looking at the hue of the imagery !

When I read this I remembered something that I had never remembered before during our discussions about image, formats, etc.

Yeah, but it depends on the settings of your video card and monitor, and your IP company, whether or not you can see what I see in the images.

A LCD monitor may not show as many colours as a CRT monitor, many LCD monitors are limited to 6 bits per primary colour, giving a total of 262,144 colours instead of the 16,777,216 of a CRT monitor.
I have witnessed this some times in the company where I work. I am the only person who uses a CRT monitor, a 10 years old Nokia, but this is the only monitor that shows the colours as they really are. A co-worker was making our web site and the colours he had chosen (different shades of blue) looked good on his laptop but they looked reddish on my monitor.
I don't know if this is relevant for grey-scale images, if the same problem arises then those monitors will only show 64 shades of grey instead of 256.
