Great pictures tied in with the highest res. topography of the hills in that area we've ever had and obviously showing, yet again, the purely natural nature of what we see. Of course, the fact that this is a German instrument on a European spacecraft won't becalm the conspiratorial nuts, and the artifact nuts will still find something to talk about I'm sure....pity...because without the hoaglanderati going hysterical over this stuff it's actually a fascinating and beautiful vista.

Of course, the fact that this is a German instrument on a European spacecraft ... It would appear, though the text does not state this in any way, that the high-res image is merely the MOC image colorized by and overlain on HRSC stereo-derived topography. Else, why would they credit MSSS? -------------------- Disclaimer: This post is based on public information only. Any opinions are my own.
