Looks like a hoax, if you ask me. Sure, sure.  The "clear" photos of other worlds from space (and on other worlds such as this) that you're used to seeing are almost always many multiple photos that are stitched seamlessly together like a puzzle to show such intricate detail. A single uncalibrated landing photo such as this just isn't going to show much detail. | | | | Corey |

But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

I was hoping that when NASA announced that the first picture was coming online, they would mess with all the scientists in mission control by inserting some alien creature staring into the lens. |
