A woman named "Jackie," who claims to be a former NASA employee, called Coast to Coast AM in the U.S. She claimed she had seen evidence of two human figures walking towards the Viking lander on Mars in 1979.
A color mosaic taken by NASA's Mars Curiosity rover Mast Camera (mastcam) shows strata exposed along the margins of the valleys in the "Pahrump Hills" region on Mars in this undated handout photo courtesy of NASA. After 18 months of driving, scientists on September 11, 2014, announced that Curiosity had arrived at the base of Mount Sharp ahead of schedule, thanks to a somewhat serendipitous decision to take an alternative path that would be gentler on the rover's damaged wheels. Within two weeks, Curiosity will reach an outcrop of rock called Pahrump Hills, where the first drill samples of Mount Sharp real estate will be made.
The "former NASA employee" asked the radio show presenter to solve a 27-year-old mystery for her. She claimed she had worked for NASA and that her job was to handle the downlink telemetry from the lander. The Viking lander was the first vehicle to send back pictures of the surface of the Red Planet.
She said that while she was working, she saw two people walking across the Martian surface. She continued that she and six colleagues were watching the footage of the Viking rover moving around on multiple screens when she noticed two men in spacesuits walking to the Viking Explorer from the horizon.

Interesting story, any corroborating evidence or testimony? Any at all?
Not to be rude but I remember one caller to C2C claiming that he was from an alternate universe where Star Trek was real...

Anonymous caller, we can't even verify she worked at NASA. When I worked at NASA all the footage of our astronauts on other worlds was kept in Bob Lazar's office.

As the OP said this allegation is consistent with other theories on the subject.

Now, my question is do the astronauts working on Mars get paid every two weeks, like they do here on Earth, or every 14 Sols, or what? They don't have weekdays and weekends on Mars, do they, where they can kick back and watch football or something?

So if a bum on the street tells me he's Jesus, and shows me where he has scars on the palms of his hands, since that fits with the mythology, that makes his story more likely to be true.

Ben Rich said that we had a secret space program, locked up so deep that it would never see the light of day, capable of traveling to the stars.

There have also been a number of anomalies from Mars surface and above surface photography which are easy to see anything you want to see if you look long enough...

She added the men's suits looked protective but unlike what astronauts wore.
