I have not seen that picture, and it is not in my downloads. I downloaded all the pictures as they were made available. There is a very similar picture, but it hasn't got that 'frame' on the left side.
So the guy who made that video has either added that 'anomaly' on the left by himself, or he has got images that aren't available to the public.
Guess what option I think has happened?edit on 10-8-2012 by AmatuerSkyWatcher because: (no reason given)
Joking about what? That the pictures are tampered with and that when corrected they look different? That NASA lies? Please get real.

Why and how can people like this even exist? And believe stuff like that? I'm speechless. Nope, sorry- I'm a SHEEP! That's what I was about to get called, right?

The only thing that made me think it could possibly be faked was that they didn't perform a live sky crane test on earth?
They can't do a complete test of the skycrane on Earth because it was designed to operate on Mars, with its thinner atmosphere and lower gravity.

Just curious and I have to be honest in saying that I have only done a cursory look/search but has there been any explanation on the greyish areas that appear in the Curiosity photographs yet?
Do we have to wait for them to blast it with the laser and spectral test the areas? Are they going to test those areas?
So many questions...

I think you are refering to the area where the lander exhaust plumes blew the dust/gravel.
And yes, they look cool and juicy!
I'm sure they are going to examine those areas carefully

Detail Observed from 10 Feet away with Curiosity's ChemCam
This image displays the type of detail discernable with the telescopic camera of the Chemistry and Camera (ChemCam) instrument on the Mars Science Laboratory mission's Curiosity rover. The instrument uses a telescope for spectroscopic analysis of chemical elements in targets such as rocks or soil. The same telescope serves the instrument's camera, called the remote microimager. For this image, the remote microimager photographed a dollar bill from 10 feet (3 meters) away.
Where did you get that nonsense?
They did attempt to use a jet engine powered trainer but it proved too near-lethal to really use.
All prime and backup commanders of Lunar Landing missions practiced lunar module-like landings in the LLTV at Ellington AFB. Astronaut pilots include Neil Armstrong, Charles Conrad, James Lovell, Alan Shepard, David Scott, John Young, Eugene Cernan, Richard Gordon and Fred Haise.
The LLRV was flown 83 times at Ellington AFB. A total of 439 flights were logged on the three LLTVs, with LLTV No. 3 (NASA 952), the only remaining vehicle, accounting for 254 of those flights.

Not impossible at all...My backyard looks a lot more like Mars than the pictures that have been uploaded.

Good grief where are the mods? If ever a thread needed it, it's this one. I'm trying to read about factual information on Curiosity and 80% of what's being posted is completely off topic. This is starting to get really annoying.
