Curiosity: Potential Anomalies (2015)

a reply to: funbox

This area looks like a bomb went off...
I like this zig zaggy thing top center
mars.jpl.nasa.gov...


I have resorted to enlarged screenshots :-)

Never seen threads about stones so much, but it is fun. I will soon post some of my fun stuff. Awesome. Happy to see this alive and breathing.

DO.

Not good enough. Pointing to stone rubbish does not justify a find. We will keep looking.

DO.

or a semi buried screen , looks all a bit junkyardish in this area

It looks like Curiosity is entering an area with a slightly different geology.

Interesting.

Yes, I have seen places with the white stone ribs running very like this on earth, but there are things there I have never seen. Wonder what caused this, maybe it was examined by the lander?

Well actually the "rubbish or find" is going to all be subjective isn't it? The photos are not very clear, personally I see that square dark opening like section with a clear crossbeam bottom and a several square section lying near as very interesting as far as that goes.
If you are expecting a clear sure "find" I think you will get very worn and it leaves little for a thread to exist on...what a photo every few years?

Nice one :-)
It looks exactly like (to me except more blurry ha!) the mine shafts in the area of hills above us, we like exploring, only crawled in one once and the spiders convinced me it was not fun!

Like for instance, on earth this little M shape and other regular threadlike shapes would be caused by life forms in the soil. being so regular in spacing they are very unrocklike imo.

Ok one more and I will stop flooding :-)

Good find. I do believe that this is a remnant from the first U.S. Mars Mission in 1915, and contains the initials of the United States President at the time 'W. W.' - Woodrow Wilson himself.

That could be a result of the drill's action, it's too close to the hole.

That's a good example of why we should try to avoid using low resolution photos or parts of photos that are too small and need too much zooming-in. This is the original photo:

PS: the photo is upside down, as it was part of a "selfie" taken by Curiosity on sol 177.

Edited to add the photo rotated 180º.

a reply to: ArMaP

Thanks so that was a test sight also I presume.

I have been thinking and decided to again bow out from the Mars anomaly thread. i don't have the ability with the proper photos and no sense in junking up the thread, leaving it to the more skilled keep up the good work!

a reply to: Char-Lee

I don't think your junking up anything , the track you posted in the first image that was of a lower resolution to ArMaPs second higher resolution picture, at least proves that finer detail, like a track mark, can be discerned at lower resolution as well as a higher resolution ..

plus ill miss you

I will still be watchin you
I will still be looking and if I see a great big clearly obvious marsamal...I will take a chance it is not a rock lol!

a reply to: Char-Lee

well if I do anything interesting let me know , hopefully we're just a corner away from a pitched marsimal battle, or maybe something akin to a slugo'phile swarmfest , hopefully something even more exciting or profound ..

maybe even more rocks

maybe...

No, I agree with you. Was just having a moment of frustration. Hopes are high.

Here's another one, sort of:
