That looks, from the angle, remarkably like a mouse.

Of course it's a rock. It also looks like a mouse. The two aren't mutually exclusive.

Maybe it's a Mouse pretending to be a rock?

A ferocious , carnivorous mouse using natural camo to lure in other unsuspecting creatures....

Best answer mods...

That explains why diseases like plague comes from mice, they using bio-warfare to try eliminate us.

Pretty obvious there would be, and a lot more than mice. Alot more.

Caught me. I was sure it was safe to go out without being seen.

Here's my 2014 discovery of a "mouse" on Mars, first presented to the world (and by world I mean Mars) on the anomalies thread. Used it as my avatar for a couple of weeks. Cute little critter/rock.


Edit: I actually am surprised no youtube jumping-to-conclusioner hasn't put this up on a vid with bad music and sensational claims battling each other for prominence.

I'm not sure why I'm having to point this out to (presumably) grown adults with eyes in their heads, but here is a slightly enhanced zoom of the rock:



Much of the basis for this pareidolia is based on the 'tail', which is an illusion produced by the pair of rocks in front of the darker large rock.

It's a rock, next to some other rocks.

Sure that is possible. I don't think it is a mouse either, however there is not enough camera resolution to determine what is a shadow and what is not when it comes to that area.

Here is another weird aspect of the picture. Notice what would be the face area. It appears to be multiple images, as if the rock turned it's head to the right while the picture was being snapped.

Now don't beat me up. Fun with pictures, and objectively find as much visual clues as possible, irregardless of the logic.

for future astronauts to mars... for security..take an cat onboard !

I couldn't help myself..... it needed to be done!

BUSTED!

Look what you did, you got ATS members all riled up, I thought we talked about this. Don't use the "thing" if you're going to get photographed!

It's getting so hard to figure out who is making a joke and who thinks this crap is a sign.

LOL...it's a dead ringer. Great catch Charly. This is by far the most conclusive liknes to an animal...even if its a rock by some chance.

Thanks!
I originally found the content on CNN, of all places (for such things).
It only makes sense that it is a rock, but you have to wonder how nature can sculpt some things.
Our minds fill in the missing pieces and wahlah... meeces.

No offense charlyv but threads like these, especially images from Mars, are pointless.
All you're going to get are "rock" explanations. It's been that way for years. If there is no definitive evidence towards alien life being presented then why even bother?

Do you believe in a bit of humorous entertainment? Especially with all of the bad things going on on this planet.
I expect rock explanations, because that is what is most likely is.
Let's say it is in the spirit of Arken, if you know who I mean.

Sorry but I don't find the constant repetitiveness of "it's only a rock" humorous or entertaining. I see it in the same vein as a comedian doing the same tired standup routine badly in need of new material.

Of course it isn't a mouse. For goodness' sake...

Look at the length of the nose - it's a rat.

Well, judging your handle and avitar, you get into some wierd stuff as well.
Take a break and laugh, it is good for you.

That isn't a mouse, it has a bushy tail. It's not me after all, I do not have a bushy tail.

Although, I have never met a Martian mouse, maybe they do have bushy tails.
