Man on Mars?

Post by fyffer »

I can't believe no one has posted this yet, and odder still is the hype and 'credible' press this photo is garnering.

This image clearly shows a Martian pensively enjoying a nice day on the Red Planet.

The cropped portion is from the very leftmost portion of the hi-res panorama in the link above.

Of course, it's obviously a geomorphic anomaly .... or is it?
Note the only editting I did to this pic off the NASA site is to crop it, and put the little red circle in.

Intriguing, no?

It's so amusing that that picture is chock full of martians, and all you humans can see is a rock that looks like a human. :P

I knew he was a Martian all along... or rather... she was.

Perhaps there is a subconsciously embedded, universally human, deeply spiritual urge to find Sasquatch on Mars.

I'm glad you agree. You're obviously on your way to enlightenment.

Or could it be that it's not Sasquatch at all, but just a statue of Sasquatch......carved millenia ago by aliens...........from Earth?

Could be. We could eventually do a manned Mars mission, approach the statue of Sasquatch, and have our ears hurt by the piercing radio signal it would send to its makers signaling that our species has progressed to the point of being able to send men to Mars and to create aerosol cheese food products.

Tell us something.: Well, just trying to update my avatar after a decade. Hope this counts! Ok, so apparently I must babble on longer.

Me, too. I'm saddened that I didn't see this thread early enough to have posted such a fine comparison photo myself.

Does it look like she's riding an ATV (one with invisible handles) to anyone other than me?

Or is she riding a horse, like the Monty Python crew used to do?
