    I think it was more a case of "that's too obvious to post", Ron.

    If they did find a Martian you can bet if Gollum got the chance to ask one question it would be to ask him/her/it whether they were red and white or black and white.

    Considering that Perseverance was decelerating from 12000MPH to 0 in about 15 minutes, 127 million miles away, I think your expectations may have been a little high.

    To think that picture was from a minimum of over 34 million miles away ... its mind blowing it really is , I really hope that I am still around as and when the first men go back to the moon and especially mars , the whole world I imagine will be watching and the technology to watch it will be amazing

    The videos are coming out over the weekend , unlike still photos it takes some time to decompress and re order them accordingly to make it something that is understandable , after all its a 14 minute journey for every byte of footage to get back to earth

    I cant wait to see them personally

    obviously a fake photo , we all know the genuine ones from the rover are black and white right now until the systems all get booted up properly
