NASA caught Photoshopping an image of Saturn’s moons. What were they trying to hide?
A conspiracy theorist noticed that an image in NASA's Astronomy Picture Of The Day had noticeable Photoshop brushstrokes in it, when you turned up the contrast. Is there a mysterious object hiding near Saturn's moons?

Check out the official image of Dione and Titan, above. A YouTube user named DominatorPS3 turned up the contrast on the image, and discovered brush strokes. You can just about see a "rainbow aura" around the object that's been blacked out.



As quoted by Fox News, DominatorPS3 said: "More solid proof of NASA/ government cover-ups. And this is recent. You can do this yourself!!"

Dominator PS3's tell-all YouTube video has been taken down, allegedly because he received death threats. But he's put up a follow-up video, which you can watch below...

Nope its gone!

NASA's Emily Lakdawalla, who was responsible for the photoshopping, explained it over at Planetary.org:

Cassini takes color pictures by snapping three sequential photos through red, green, and blue filters. In the time that separated the three frames, Dione moved, so if I did a simple color composite I would be able to make Titan look right, but not Dione; or Dione look right, but not Titan. So I aligned Dione, cut it out, and then aligned Titan, and then had to account for the missing bits of shadow where the bits of Dione had been in two of the three channels.

She explains the process further here, showing how some other images of Saturn and its moons have been photoshopped — but she didn't post any raw images of the Dione/Titan image that caused the controversy. So at least some conspiracy theorists were not appeased, demanding to see the raw images. Update: She did actually include a link to the raw image feed, where you can grab it.

What do you think? Did NASA really try to hide evidence of extraterrestrial life by photoshopping a picture — and then making that picture is Astronomy Picture Of The Day, just to confuse us further? It's so crazy, it might just be true!

NASA are a NAZI Germany founded company started by NAZI Scientists so expect lies and cover ups from them.

Whatever they're doing and why they're doing it, they're not helping themselves by doing such stupid things without explaining the process and showing all the steps. People within the scientific community probably consider such accusations ridiculous and consider the process of what they do understandable and reasonably expected given the realities of the nature of space photography when things are moving.

However, to a laymen like me, these processes aren't known and therefore should be explained and well documented to reveal just how NASA gets such "beautiful" (man-made in a sense) pictures, since it would give them that much more value, or perhaps take away value given your thoughts on what they do. In any case, they're just shooting themselves in the foot time and time again, and they deserve any and all ridicule they get.
