NASA Photo Shows Humanoid Figure on Mars
Wednesday, January 23, 2008



Is it Bigfoot? A Tusken Raider from the first "Star Wars" movie? Or just a rock?

British newspapers went crazy Wednesday morning about an image from Mars that appears to show a humanoid figure descending a shallow hillside.

The "alien" is actually a blurry detail in a huge panoramic photograph snapped on the edge of Mars' Gusev crater by NASA's Spirit rover in early November, and posted on NASA's Web site on Jan. 2.

Naturally, it took the Photoshop skills of dedicated bloggers to find the "humanoid."

"NASA scientists have been puzzled by the peculiarly life-like image," declared the Times of London, despite the apparent fact that no one from NASA has had any comment.

Strange Figure on Mars The skeptical Web site BadAstronomy.com, however, scoffed, "Puhlllleeeeze. A man? It's a tiny rock only a few inches high. It's only a few feet from the rover!"

Other British papers saw the humo(u)r in the story, with the Sun theorizing that it was Detective Gene Hunt, the drunken, sexist policeman from the BBC time-traveling crime series "Life on Mars."

"It's Usama bin Laden!" declared one Times of London commenter. "All this time we thought he was in Pakistan."

I saw this on the news. Pretty interesting. Here's a place that O.J. didn't think of looking for the "real killers"!

I say it is a man and he is gay. Look at the position of his hand and wrist.

Not that there is anything wrong with that. [;)]

I won't believe it until I see JFK, Elvis, and Jimmy Hoffa in Mars photos.

I think it's Michael Jackson. [:D]

Life's what you make it.

It's got to be Michael Jackson. He's about to do that funky little kick move of his. It can't be a gay person, the wrist isn't UP and there's no back swing with the other arm.

The real question is, what is he doing outside of the glass transport tubes?
