Posted February 25, 2008 This photo was released by NASA a few weeks ago, it was taken on mars by the latest machine sent there. They have stated it "Must be just a oddly shaped rock". But, there's been buzz going round with people saying it's obviously some sort of "space yeti". Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 25, 2008 I'm going straight out for space yeti or Elvis. The rock explanation just seems far fetched, I mean come on, I don't think you can get much more direct evidence then that photo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 25, 2008 It's a tuskan raider on mars! It would be nice if it was a alien. But why didn't they chase it if it was walking? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 25, 2008 I dont get that why the martian sky on NASA photo's is a redy/pinky colour, yet on European space agency photo's the sky is blue. So what colour is it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 25, 2008 Jesus Christ fellas, if this were genuine we'd be invaded by now. This broke like a month ago! Or to use the popular nomenclature: Old! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 25, 2008 Jesus Christ fellas, if this were genuine we'd be invaded by now. This broke like a month ago! Or to use the popular nomenclature: Old! Hehe, sorry! I only just found it. I suck. Anyhoo, it does looks incredibly like some creature thing, it's obviously not, but we can wish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 25, 2008 That is one weird rock though! None of the other rocks on Mars photos look shaped like that, probably because there's only wind erosion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 25, 2008 Is it not also really unlikely that the creature, if there were one on Mars, would be humanoid? I mean, what are the chances? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 25, 2008 If this was to be evidence of life on mars, it would be more believable if they said it was a statue made by an ancient extinct civilisation that used to be on Mars millions of years ago Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 25, 2008 Is it not also really unlikely that the creature, if there were one on Mars, would be humanoid? I mean, what are the chances? Well, not having any evidence at all to go by, id say between 1:1000000000 and 1:1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 25, 2008 I thought there was going to be a new series. You let me down Haggis. But it's possible that there is life on mars. Why are people so quick to say that there isn't? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
