I can not see the video (I hate videos, why people think videos are more important than text or static images? they are usually just a waste of time)
but if what is shown is the image from Hale crater that is used as an avatar by sean1david1ryan then it was the subject of a thread by Mikesingh, in
which I tried (and probably failed, given the posts from most people
) to show that this is not a photo, it's a 3D rendering made on a computer
using the height data from the stereo camera aboard Mars Express and mapping the real photo over the 3D model.
Doing it stretches the original image (that has less colours than is common) and the areas where the image was too stretched appear blocky.
And those images are from ESA, NASA had nothing to do with it.
How can I trust people's observation powers when they can not even read the title of the video they post?
