I believe Sleeper also wrote something of that ... search around. I think pregnant and sun were in the title, but no promises.
To the person wondering what a city on mars would be made of ... well, minerals and metals ... just like earth. You know, they mine for that stuff
There isn't a steel forest or anything
To the poster mentioning possible past life annihilating themselves with a destructive force ... the planet does almost look as though it is covered
in rust ... what would earth look like after 10-20,000 years from a mutually assured destruction event? Metal rusting away, organics decay into
dirt, concrete crumbled to dust ... that is, what was left after the life extinguishing event. Though there are other theories of what could have
happened to a past possible civilization.
Thing is, we don't know, and science cannot disprove most things 100% ... there are lots of scientific theories that are based more on faith than
fact ... more than most self-claimed logical thinkers would like to admit
The truth is out there, but we no nothing of the truths of existence, the universe, or even our own biology yet. Just scratching he surface
As far as op, stuff I have found around this site before pretty much, but don't let those with close eyes bother you ... if they don't read your
captions, then, they are not as on top of things as they try to sound.
Though I may agree the cities most likely come down to pixelization and compression ... I commend your effort.
Question, what format are you keeping it in? jpegs are horrible with artifacts, compression, and 'smoothing'. I use gimp, not PS, so I usually try
to keep things either in xcf, or if the native format is decent like tif.
If I get time I will try to do what you did in gimp and see if the results are similar ... and your latest page has me wanting to go back to that
image and see what 'it' is pointing at.
Be honest now, did you take the face and 'fudge' it to have more classic 'alien' facial look? Looking at the original and your 'enhanced'
version, I don't see how it changed so much.
I do accept the possibility someone is playing with the public ... or they are seeing just how closely we examine all of these photos.
I really need a 3D monitor setup or goggles ... I am sure checking out all the 3D panoramics from jpl would be great ... I have quite a few of the
left and rights saved. Just don't have time to take on a real project at the moment, just time for a bit of play
I know some people use the .gif
format and time the images to flip back and for to create the 3D effect without special equipment or crossing of the eyes ... I might check that out
later
Keep doing what makes you happy, in the end, you only answer to yourself, and those you love (even if you are religious, you love your deity) ... not
