The photo of a door on the surface of Mars was altered to make it seem cooler than it really is.
A photo from NASA's Mars rover went viral over the weekend because it depicted a doorway on Mount Sharp. Some true believers weren't convinced that it was a naturally-forming rock formation.
Mick West, a professional debunker, has posted the photos of Mount Sharp taken by the rover, and they don't look like much.
This isn't the first time that space photos have been misleading. The Chinese space program trumpeted an alleged cube found on the Moon. It was just a rock.
It's very unlikely that people like West will take the word of a professional skeptic and shoot down their theories. A study that could have huge implications for finding life on the fourth rock from the Sun was published a week after the Mars photo went viral.
Who doesn't want to believe at the end of the day?
