New images from Mars have arrived. NASA’s Mars exploration vehicle sent new images to the world. The footage looks like it’s from the movie DUNE: Desert Planet. Mars in our solar system is among the planets that provide the most inspiration for sci-fi material.

The original images are actually black and white

Curiosity, the robot that takes the images in question and sends them to the world. The robot landed on Mars in August 2012 to find evidence of ancient microbial life. Curiosity spends some of its time photographing the environment while navigating and researching the planet. Some of the photos posted are in black and white, but Screen Rant has colored them for space enthusiasts. Even though the photos switch from black and white to a yellow tonal color, the images are quite beautiful.

If you’ve watched the movie DUNE: Desert Planet, you may notice that the images are very similar to the desert planet Arrakis. In fact, the first photos from Mars also featured the desert, but after the movie, it became more interesting to many people. When you look carefully at the images above, it is quite surprising that it looks like a movie scene. The images are also reminiscent of the deserts of our world.
