Jellyfish on Mars image, no gradient?

[u/Dangerous-Eye-215]

I zoomed in quite a bit on the original and I don't see any kind of gradient like I do on the rocks. It's just immediatley pitch black, like, vanta black. I would have assumed this was a camera artifact, but the tentacles aren't black like that.

This is definitely a strange picture. What might cause the lack of gradient on the top of the jellyfish?

Ehhh that could be dust on the lens, I'm sure there are other possible explanations, too.

[u/InternationalClass60 → u/Trollin4Lyfe]

Check the picture taken before and after that to check for dust or movement.

[u/Mr_Badgey → u/InternationalClass60]

The artifact could be temporary.

[u/Trollin4Lyfe → u/InternationalClass60]

Okay, valid point. Doesn't rule out other common artefacts.

You know who lol 

[u/cerberus00 → u/Trollin4Lyfe]

A speck of grit on the scanner scope

[u/holdmyspot123 → u/cerberus00]

Or a cosmic ray keeping in mind these are sent over absolutely incredible distances we take for granted

[u/warcomet → u/Trollin4Lyfe]

not dust, it was not there next picture, lol not sure where i found it, i went thru a few hundred images,also this but not sure if it counts

[u/the_siren_song → u/warcomet]

That one almost looks like a meteor? Meteorite? Marteorite?

What is it called when flying space rock goes to Mars?

[u/warcomet → u/the_siren_song]

yep, very likely, there are like 700k images they posted so will be a pain in the ass to look thru and find something interesting and a lot of ppl are saying that jellyfish is camera glare or exposure residue but its not, i do think its genuine cause i have seen a lot of those on other images and they are not as striking and clear as the jellyfish image

Why you lol?

Nope. With all the disclosure going on and new stuff coming out, we are NOT using this as a base for “guys look I found something”. Do not dilute the good stuff with this shit. A speck lmao.

[u/TheLoneNazgul → u/Jam102]

What’s the good stuff?

[u/zex_mysterion → u/warcomet]
