Invisible alien hoverbike imho.
Hm, one of the NASA guys came over onto Mars and created a fake rock? That's interesting.
If it wasn't man-made, then it can't be a rock. If it was a rock, it'd look exactly like the other rocks around itself.
No my point is, if you didn't say "life on mars" I woulda never thought that was a alien. But anyway, where did you get this? I could put a alien looking thing on the ground in the dessert take a picture and do that too ;p
It's Bigfoot!
Just a natural formation of rocks or some such. It's simply the brain looking at it and making a common thing into something more, much like the rock they found that looks like a face.
Besides we've been studying Mars for all this years, if there was life on there, it's most definitely not Jawas, it'd be something much simpler and harder to find with the naked eye/telescopes/satellites.
Good one.Quote:

More than likely to just be a rock. Sure, a deformed rock, but that can easily be due to climate change. There has been evidence that Mars was once like the Earth. Climate changes from long ago could have caused its unique formation.
Edit: It looks kind of like a guy in a cloak, though. And some of the rocks look like they fold over one another. Perhaps a material is there that could create the idea of a person, but is also the same shape as a rock?
Edit 2: What the hell? The second picture has loads of things that just look like gray piles of pants, and a kitchen floor.
Lol, The Sun.
False imo.

MY IDEA FOA
So that's where Osama is.
It's an Osama, Tusken Raider, Jawa, Bigfoot, Elvis, White Rabbit agglomerate risen from the red sands of Mars come to greet us.
It's my mom.
Although it is most likely just a bunch of rocks in a strange formation it doesn't seem like it's just a coincidence that it's like that...
You beat me to it. :(Quote:

it would be if the sun was a reputable source 8)
Looks a lot like the star of that famous hoax Bigfoot film - just someone having some tongue-in-cheek photoshop fun, I'd assume.
Besides, it's The Sun.
To say "there's life on Mars, The Sun proved it!" is like saying "all brown people are evil terrorists, Fox News proved it!"
The only source mentioned in that article is 'an amateur astronomer'. It claims it's a four-year-old photo; no-one, anywhere else, has noted this aspect of the image before.
Reputable science says that Mars is most likely to be devoid of life, but that it might well have carried life at some time in the past. Hence, I doubt that there's anything alive on the planet, but few things would be cooler than the discovery of fossils or other proof of previous life.
This was on the news tonight, it would be exciting if it was proved that it is life;)
hey, that guy is shorter than me! :jess:
we still haven't comfirmed this is mars (or sparta, THANK YOU)
mars has blue sky but i thought that the ground on mars was a shade redder and that the sunlight was paler
The sand people are real. :bigsmile:
Is it true that some people consider it a feasible theory that martians life under the surface of the planet?
Or is it just a fat load of bs?
There's people who think the nazi's retreated to the hollow center of the Earth and conquered the subterranean people.Quote:

Wasn't it that they found traces of water under the surface of Mars. And didn't that lead to people finding something on the surface that was similar to Canals?...or tracks left by the worms from Dune.Quote:

The end!
If I remember right, there are small amounts of ice at places on Mars. It actually has polar ice caps, too, but they're dry ice - solid carbon dioxide, not water ice.Quote:

Pssh I've never SEEN Mars either...so I'm forced to believe it's not really there anyway.
Also: does anyone remember Sandkings on The Outer Limits? Awesome.
Mars is visible from Earth, even without a telescope:pQuote:

Oh my god, a giant rock!
I reckon it's the face of a rock formation to it's left.
The ground above the rock looks really far away. Or maybe I'm just crazy. But I don't think this is real either way.
Call me gullible but i dunno...., it probably is fake... but wouldn't it be cool if it was real?!
probaly a statue and beneath it is a hidden ruin that symbolizes the exisistance of life ....
nah im just talking a lot of bull lmao
omg what if im right whooooooooooooooooooooooo
I wonder if the picture is actually a picture of Mars, really. The atmosphere of Mars is a very dangerous place for people like us, so I think that only bacterial types of life can be found on the planet.
Nasa used all their money on girls and alcohol so they asked me to sit on the beach to take a photo of me and i still havent gotten the money the promised me.
I say it's a rock, though I do believe in extraterrestial life. It's just not it, that's a rock. Definitelly.
Oh man, yeah I read about that in this ancient (1960s) book about astronomers. They freaked all out about it and I never did figure it out .Quote:

Ok, I was on the website for my local news this morning looking up the weather when I found this article.
My Local News Report on it Then, here is the Fox News Report on it.Fox News Report of it.It looks like a picture of an alien. Guys this is awesome and something I have been waiting for for a long time. I'm gonna research this up.
I was reading the article and when "big foot" was mentioned, it all made sense. Big Foot came from mars and goes back there every now and again to say hello to his friends and family there, and possibly hurl mars rocks.
And I heard that Bigfoot has to travel back to Mars to replenish his invisibility powers so that he can hide from amateur photographers on Earth and when we catch him in photos he is leaving for Mars.
This picture must be after he just arrived.
It's a rock.
Though there's already a lengthy discussion going on about this exact thing. Though we only had The Sun as a reference. Nice to see other news people are distorting what's quite clearly a rock though.
Thats why life hasn't been found on mars, all the creatures from mars have invisibility powers which prevents people from finding them or taking pictures. That power can only be used on Mars because it doesn't last forever and has to be recharged. Big Foot is the exception because his hair makes him special, so he gets to go to earth.
its.....a rock....geez...you shouldnt just go around calling rocks people....it just doesnt seem right
if it was a rock why dosent it match the colour of the rocks around it
seriously how is it that there is a different colour rock there.
Obivously something is standing there. It could be a whole differnt species.

Regardless it's not a living thing. The notion of a living being, on Mars in it's condition today, that is THAT advanced and human like in appearance, is completely poppycock.
I personally do believe it to be something. It is way to resemblent to be a rock. I never seen a rock look like that.Quote:

I hope you're not suggesting that The Sun isn't a reputable news source on par with the Diana Express!Quote:

But there is life on Mars - they've found in some deep crevices evidence of water conducive to life; as well as bacteria and other microorganisms.
sandkings.
One of the prop guys probably stepped onto the set and accidentally had his picture taken. Those NASA producers need to be more careful next time. Our tax money should be buying better production values than this tripe.
