I think a planet could be somewhat more 'harsh' but I think there's only so much any 'being' could take. For example, if the temperature all around Mars is really between -143 to 27C then I find it hard to imagine a species being able to survive such different extremes.
An earth like atmosphere would raise the temperatures and so would dense forests. 81 degrees is hardly unlivable.
@Cthulhu, as I stated I'm aware that there are higher res photos and that numerous studies have been done on it. It still has a few distinct features and we have no idea how old this thing is. I'm not saying I believe it, just bored and wanted to strike up a conversation.
What about the tube like structures? What's you take on that?
