haha Nice! I did pick it though

[Brendan]

yes very clever, how ever there is a give away as to which is which

[ving (David)]

I think it is the earth....ian atmosphere that gives it away. I dont thing mars has the blue

[frogman (Anthony Lord)]

gotta admit tho it is entirely possible that there is life on a rolling platform that stays in the dark side of mars.....

cool likeness

[Striker (Tony)]

hahaha...I picked earth as the one on the right......I was sure I had seen that rock somewhere in my travells...

[ving (David)]

maybe thru your telescope?

[rumples riot]

I picked the one on the left for two reasons. First was the sky, mars has a pinkish sky during the day with blue sunsets and the other was the mountain range in the background, seen a lot of mars shots and never seen any mountain ranges like that on mars.

[Vermin (Tom)]

The atmospheric haze in front of the distant hills made it too easy.

[MiG]

I looked at it yesterday and picked the correct one.
However, your link is pointing to the most recent apod which makes your challenge quite confusing.
