I dont know if any of you here are familiar with photo editing software/techniques but they have the ability to delete a part of an image and then guess, based off of the surrounding pixel content makeup, how to fill in the area that was selected, rather than just blurring something out.
This is NASA we are talking about, a HUGE cooperation with the means of advanced space travel and most likely more intelligence than we are not informed of.
They would not just smudge over a picture with a block of blur, because they can do better, and they know people like you out there will immediately speculate its validity. Mistakes like this dont happen

that's a rather old image (graphic programs were, i think, in their infancy). i'm assuming if there was an attempt to cover something up, old skool, they'd use some other method.
