Cool picture!. I found making full [shift] zoom on the horizon,
something like "towers": a small vertical line with a thick dot on the top of it. What is it? Check: http://www.panoramas.dk/fullscreen3/f2_mars.html |

I found making full [shift] zoom on the horizon, something like "towers": a small vertical line with a thick dot on the top of it. What is it? Check: http://www.panoramas.dk/fullscreen3/f2_mars.html There is nothing human in Mars. Nor faces nor towers nor airports nor washing machines. Methane points to something breathing though, but there is nothing human. Maybe something alive (sulfur loving cold adapted bacteria maybe) but nothing symbolic or even remotely human. I find it much more interesting like that. How boring would be if there were faces, towers, the same old story. No. There is nothing human. I saw that "tower" too, but it is likely a vertical rock. We will see in a few days as the rover nears the hills. |

Perhaps its an advanced sub-space radio beacon antenna from some alien civilization that is preferring to be unseen rather than assert itself and squash the earthlings like the conquistadores did the incas. If only we had some blurred video's and then we'd really know the TRUTH! :^) Then again it could be a rock. O' |

What is it? Check: http://www.panoramas.dk/fullscreen3/f2_mars.html There seem to be several similar features, and they look to me like an image compression artifact or an uncorrected cosmic ray hit on the CCD. A "hit" on the sky would be easy to correct; a hit among the rocks would be difficult to detect. -- Mike Dworetsky (Remove "pants" spamblock to send e-mail) |
