NASA is not altering Mars colours It's much less exciting than a conspiracy theory, admittedly.

who revisits old threads days later, unless they took part in the discussion? Anyway, I've never seen this info about RBG, and how it can't map the whole visible spectrum, which is very intresting.

I'll concede your point, delmoi, while pointing out that the previous post was only 18 hours old.

Ok, so they're not deliberately tweaking the pics in Photoshop, but doesn't the "explanation" still mean that the pictures may be quite different than what we would see there with the naked eye?

NASA isn't altering the pictures....... Idiots. As anyone can see, Mars is green.
