Wonder if the hills are steep or long. Heard the air is a bit thin so probably quite high but also heard that the locals don't like the tour going through

That's so low-tech. Curiosity's landing was way cooler. BTW, a Mars orbiter caught a photot or two of Curiosity with its parachute deployed. Absolutely amazing.

It looks a lot like the Mojave Desert. Are you sure this wasn't filmed in Arizona and Nevada. Some of the aliens from Area 51 look just like that. Most are greenish though....
