They seem to be just dots. Single pixel.melts. Could be anything.

There is nothing wrong with investigation, but both sides only have speculation, and no proof. I feel that it is proof enough for me that if you go back to images before this year, these anomalies did not exist, yet this year they show up everywhere. I will not say it is not some new particle our sun has started producing or that the camera is messed up in some way, but if it were all NASA would have to do is say that. Instead, they change, photoshop, or just plain remove images.
On July 19, 2011, the software for generating the browse images was changed to not apply smoothing when making JPEG images that are larger in size than the original data. The smoothing, as seen in the left image above, was found to contribute to making the cosmic ray features look like artificial structures. The unsmoothed images, although not quite as pleasing looking, are more representative of the actual data.

I'm sorry, I thought I was on a conspiracy forum, not 'accept the official answer'.com
The simple yet effective motto of our membership is "deny ignorance", which signifies an effort to apply the principals of critical thought and peer review to the provocative topics covered within.

Out of curiosity has anybody got technical details on the actual sensor and pixel remapping (clean cycle) procedure for this satellite?

This is a list of links to in depth information about the on-board instruments, the teams that built and operate them and their scientific goals. See also the instrument resources pages for pointers about how to operate and analyse science data.

I'll accept an official line when I feel it has been thoroughly thought out in a logical order in my mind with some good fact checking. I just like to explore a topic fully. It does not mean I'll always come to the conspiratorial conclusion or the skeptical conclusion, but I enjoy the journey no matter the destination.
