‘How-to’ Create a Martian Landscape for NASA/JPL
Objective: Create phony Martian landscape to send to major universities, scientific publications and to “wow” the general public.
Rationale: In order to ‘prove’ that the Bible is a ‘myth’, and that the Creation story in Genesis is not true and mankind evolved from primates, Martian landscapes come in handy to 1) show geologists that there are ‘volcanic’ rocks on Mars, and thus it’s “billions” of years old and 2) indicate that there was a massive amount of erosion on the Martian surface so NASA/JPL can say “look, there was once water on Mars, so there must have been life there too…”. Obviously, Earth was completely eroded by a massive flood of some kind while super volcanoes were billowing, so the chances of biological evolution occurring here on terra firma are nil (thus obliterating the current ape-to-neanderthal-to-man idea...). Hence, we must have come from Martians, and NASA/JPL is going to 'prove' it by-golly come hell or high water...
Vehicle: NASA will send a handful of "rovers" to the Red planet and ‘land’ them with parachutes. Never mind that Mars is moving through space along a spiral pattern at an incredible Mach #, NASA’s Special Effects team and a good old-fashioned ‘blast-off’ from the Cape will dupe 99.9% of folk into thinking that we’re actually there. And not to mention we have several Earthly deserts in which to chose from in order to create our Martian mirage…
Step 1: Find a volcanic boulder field, similar to the one below in the Sahara. Take picture.
Step 3: Fix the sky and make everything red, because the Red planet is indeed red, and even has a “red” sky…
Step 4: Compare your doctored-up desert photo to a “real” photo of Mars taken by one of the “rovers”, such as this one below by Mr. Pathfinder.
Step 5: If your Martian landscape looks pretty darn close to NASA’s (or at least good enough for gov'ment work...), then just add the "rover" parachute to the foreground, and vuala...
Step 6: Sell your “image” of Mars to NASA, and it should be worth a couple of mil at least because you've just saved them hundreds of millions of dollars on having to actually ‘land’ on the Red planet with parachutes in order to take such a picture via a remote-controlled buggy developed by Jet Phony Laboratory, or JPL...
And there you have it. Six easy steps to creating a Martian Landscape…
