Very interesting indeed. Thank you for explaining that.

Instead of Volcanos I would much rather think it is some old Alien UFO entereance that leads to a huge outpost, or even main group of beings. Hell bent on taking over Earth.....

Thanks again for all your input. I would like to watch a team explore that-live like- (as live as it could get).

Because that photo is from a different mission.

I suppose you didn't read what that page says.

The team in charge of the High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment, or HiRISE, is soliciting suggestions for pictures to be taken by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.

And I don't think that's a good photo either, there are more interesting geological features on Mars.

Ahh just found this again while looking at this pic again

The link I give doesn't even say this and it's not a HiRISE pic. Also when I google your external quote it only brings me to ATS.

I know t's not a HiRISE photo, that's what I was saying.

It's funny how frequently that happens, and it shows the importance of providing a link to the source (which I didn't, sorry

), but they are still accepting suggestions in their HiWish page.

How do you come about an image NASA has suppressed?
Fail.

Don't put words in my mouth. How is it suppressed when I linked to it....

Before you type, look.

Wow I just signed up and that site is awesome!

I forsee me suggesting many places

Also what would you suggest for someone like me who wants to learn how to figure out size of objects in pictures. I am not good with the photo imaging stuff but I'd like to learn so when I see these kinds of pics I can do what is necessary before posting them.

Considering that I have seen at least part of more than 18,000 photos, it's a little difficult to say.

Valleys, mountains, canals, holes, mesas, everything has its own special appeal. And yes, I do like rocks.

It depends, what photos are you talking about? There are great differences in resolution, but HiRISE photos usually have a 0.5 or 0.6 metres per pixel resolution.

I guess for any picture really... I am not versed in pixelations and such but willing to learn

Mostly the Spirit Rover pics.

Yea I just need a book on how to read all of this stuff...

Any suggestions?

I really want to learn since Im getting more comfortable with such topics on here even if not everyone agrees

Thanks for you replies!

For rover photos there's a program that takes the photos from the left and right camera and, based on the distance between the cameras and the angle they make relative to each other, shows at what distance the objects are or what size they are.

I don't remember the program's name, but I have it installed, so I will look for it.

Edit: the program is AlgorimancerPG.

sorry to go OT, but I didn't wanna make another thread. but if you guys in the states go out now you'll catch quite a nice view of venus and the moon in S/SW sky.
