I warn you, this is not a joke warning, I realise this forum has younger members and therefore, you scroll down by your own desire.[/align] From NineMSN Australia[align=justify]Quote: "A NASA photo taken on Mars has captured the imagination of stargazers worldwide, with some arguing the photo proves there is life on the red planet. The landscape picture, which was snapped by the Spirit rover in early November, caught the attention of eagle-eyed viewers who made out a man-like figure appearing behind a rock. Unnoticed by NASA and virtually invisible to the naked eye, the blurry image comes to life only when highly magnified. The shape resembles a man kneeling down with his right arm outstretched. But many online examiners have ridiculed the 'discovery', saying the shape is more likely a rock or a shadow. "A man?" asks one skeptic on BadAstronomy.com. "It's a tiny rock only a few inches high. It's only a few feet from the rover!"[/align]End quote. What, YCMers, if your opinion on the follow images? They are from NASA itself, and are totally unedited other than the magnifying done on the "man". Is there really life on Mars? [align=center] [/align] Credits to "NineMSN Australia" and "This is London" for the images. EDIT: As I said, I have finally found the image on NASA's website. It's a huge image and may lag some of you. Our little green friend is on the far left hand side, and about 4/5 of the way down the page (may vary depending on your monitor and/or resolution). http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/jpeg/PIA10214.jpg Also, some different images can be seen here: http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/targetFamily/Mars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poc Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 I do belive in inteligent life somewhere else in this universe, but none inside this solar system other than Earth , not any more anyways. It might just be a statue left on the surface from a far off civilization of aliens who were doing some exploring. Personally I cant see how a natural rock could ever form in that shape.

The Slime Lord Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 That's what I was thinking. It kinda looks like a statue of some sort. It's definitely not a natrual rock formation. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAG Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Aw...i thought you meant the little green men from toy story. Anyways, that just looks like a hunk of rock shaped like a kneeling guy to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are here, and there are many different animal spieces here, why is it impossible to be anywhere else? It's not 100% incomprehensible to believe that all life resides on Earth. There are millions upon billions upon trillions of "organisms" reportedly floating around idly, so there must be some signifigant life elsewhere. We cannot simply be the only science experiment that when right. A statue seems an odd choice to me. Typically, when you see statues of ancient Earth civilations, they are accompanied by other statues and often ruins (Ever heard of "Christmas Island"?") EDIT: TAG: How? With seemingly no major weather on Mars other than wind, how could it have been "shaped" like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abstract [Atrocity] Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Alien art? Gentlemen, when we take our showers, aliens watch us from someotherwordly sculpting class and carve our images into statues. But seriously, this is a little too weird.

Speed Dragon90 Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 That does look very much like a man or statue of one, but it could simply be like the "face" seen on Mars that was a odd shaped rock formation that just appeared to look like a face because of shadows and other things. This the face with and this is the face without so it could be something like that, but I kind of hope it's not because life outside of our planet is something that I find interesting and could be a huge discovery.

HORUS Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Its a NASA employee sneaking onto the set. and the moon landing never happened xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frunk Posted January 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Looks a bit like Han Solo whence frozen in "Carbonite". :lol: No good pics on the web. :( EDIT: NASA didn't find these though, they took them, and didn't notice the Green thing, then some "enthusiasts" at they call themselves, spotted it when the images was released. What I'd like to know is if the thing took more than one image of this general area. Has the thing moved, is it gone, etc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Static Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 The Image is fake. The zooms are edited. There is no hand in the original. Meh, I can't tell. I still do not believe that a human statue would be on our surface, unless there is knowledge that we are from mars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiffMaster Alex Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 very interesting Frunk. I am kinda neutral right now, but if they take another picture and it's not there I will be less skeptical. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
