Space/Science » in reply to re: Question re sources of MER images on the web

pretty much what I was looking for ..

yours and Michael Lyle's site are going to be great resources ..

I noticed the difference between your Burns Cliff Panorama coloring and that posted by JPL:

the JPL version:

your version:

.. I guess it's the old battle between blue and red again .. I am absolutely not qualified to comment on colorization algorithms .. however I did read somewhere that rocks which appear blue on Mars, are probably actually granite-grey in reality.

Anyway, thanks for that; I've bookmarked your page ..
