RE: Mars Anomalies: Part 1
Where did you get that information? I've already seen images from JPL Mars Rovers that were much bigger than 1024x1024. I have read they only use a 2 megapixel camera on Opportunity, but knowing there are better resolution images on other rovers makes this information seem bogus.
You can find the information about camera specs on nasa's own pages, also the information is easily accessible on wikipedia; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curiosity_(rover).
The next rover might have a better camera but considering its not that easy to transport the data from the rover all the way to the earth (limited bandwith speed). Better not get your hopes up.
The explanation of the rover's camera makes sense.![](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://mars.nasa.gov/system/resources/detail_files/8812_pia21717_MR_mcam08595-full2.jpg)

But, at the same time, knowing they piece together mosaics of 1.3 billion megapixels and seeing missing information in the image files is a red flag.
Besides, you arguing with a guy who calls his steemit page Fake Internet News? So, don't your hopes up if you think I will change my tune about NASA standing for Not A Straight Answer.

I'm obviously a critic myself. But piece together enough pictures and you get whatever amount of pixels you want. Even if they gave a straight answer which no one can know for sure, you would not believe it so its kinda a lose/lose situation ain't it? Can't beleive anything if one trusts nothing.
Thanks for the conversation. From this, I have researched more into how the large images are created as mosaics.
Suppose part of my enthusiasm for wanting to see something undeniably groundbreaking has a lot to do with all this.
And, I am updating my post to reflect the new information I garnered from this. Thanks!
