A little disappointing actually! I thought the pattern was a clever way to capture the status of the parachute in the event of failure, so if all they got was a garbled low-res image before the lander crashed to the surface they could deduce which section failed. Alas, it was just an easter-egg.. |

Not true, according to OP:
> Allen Chen revealed that there was a code hidden in the parachute, as well as the markings being useful for camera alignment.
