Curiosity: Potential Anomalies (Update 01/2014)

Speaking of funny looking rocks. I wonder what the odds are of finding two identical rocks lying only a few meters away from each other? Taking into account that we're viewing them at slightly different angles, they look to be the same size, color, shape; and they both have holes at their centers!

Mars is a weird place indeed. Good find.

those markings are reminding me of the trench from a while back.

thats bad pavement laying. Someone could get their high heel stuck in that. Cowboys on mars(has this been on syfi channel yet)

New pics coming in all the time. This one is overloaded with stuff. If you can ignore the wing like structure then have a look at 10 oclockish there is a ringy thing sat on a rock. mars.jpl.nasa.gov...

A long straight harpoon/pipe hust above center. With some weird structure to the left of it. mars.jpl.nasa.gov... reminds me of a handrail for the stairs

I'll post the overall pic, haven't scratched around in it yet:



And here's your pic with the harpoon thing in the middle. This is a weird picture...almost feels like an alien world (and by world, I mean...)

Not related to living stuff, but I thought this was an interesting chunk of green material that looks a little like copper. You see a lot of iron on Mars, but other metals are a bit lacking. Maybe this one came in on a meteorite.

KRYPTONITE!!! Lex L. would pay millions for that.

Is the Rover still at Kimberly? I haven't checked lately. It was going to do some drilling and analysis there, and haven't caught up on any of that either. I'll go check the rover site.

Edit: It just got to Kimberly on Wednesday!!?? I thought they said it was there a couple of weeks ago. tortoise and the hare impersonation?

Do all those things look the same in a better quality, not resampled image?

You make me Grrrrrrr sometimes, but you are a good teacher, I learned so much on here about quality and what things look like versus what they would look like if we had another perspective or higher quality photo.

I find it difficult to understand how a supposedly barren planet can have things that look so suspicious on it.

That's easy, the suspicion is in the person's mind.

Please give yourself 10 stars for me (I tried and tried but could only click-in one). Talking about machine parts and plastic bags and doll heads is fine if you're joking around and playing with your deeply-ingrained brain-references, but being serious....happily much of that was done on April fool's day. I don't really mind anyone doing that, and actually enjoy it and lol sometimes, I just want to separate myself a little from it by trying to give ArMap 10 stars, grrrrrrrr, darn ATS coding.

I might joke around, but when it comes to finding these anomalies, I'm very serious. Maybe we are sometimes swayed by our "deeply-ingrained brain references," but to deny that objects like the "wrench" in Sol527 appear to have been manufactured and are not part of the natural landscape, is just as bad as someone who sees a martian lurking behind every rock.
I list the objects as they appear to me, without employing a mental "Mars filter." If this means opening myself up to ridicule because I see things like dolls and plastic bags, then so be it! I don't say to myself, "Wow, that sure looks like a plastic bag to me. But I dare not post such things because everyone knows that there's no plastic bags on the surface of Mars!"
I think that we should be viewing these images without context, which would effectively eliminate any preconceived notions of what type of objects we might discover.This means that we must start by stripping away everything that isn't undisputed fact and use this and this only as a frame of reference. And really, so far there's one inarguable fact in all of this: These images are of a rocky, barren, desert-like area. That's it! Stripped of all labels, explanations, and opinions, this is the only thing that we know to be a fact about these images, and the only thing that should be taken into consideration when viewing them.
P.S. I stand behind my assertion that this looks exactly like a tied plastic bag.

P.P.S. Ditto!

Instead of garbage I see bones of many types of creatures in this area.

The vast ruins of an ancient Mars city perhaps...those last photos are beautiful. I have no time :-( Time Time Time! need more! well I have at least got to catch up all to look at all you guys are finding! Hope to get some time soon.

are these pics the beginnings of the Bute's ? I was expecting it to be more gorged than it is, narrow cliff passages etc , a network of winding ways .. . wheres the map gone ? * funBOx goes off in search of a progress map*

you can almost see the pillars to its entrance on the above sat picture .. well, below now I mean

Probably been posted before but I'm not back checking the 100's of pages in this thread and all the others to check so sorry if it has and if somebody could point me to the discussion i'd be interested to read more.

Its the picture of the tracks left by robot but what is that just below the tracks that looks like a fungus spreading?

Here's a new Arken thread where he finds the spiral that BlueShift found on Feb. 27. This is the object which I've felt since then deserves a wider look, one of this thread's 1 percent chance potentials. Please give his thread flags, maybe it can be front paged and this object can get the analysis I think it needs. A needle in a haystack, but sometimes you stick your hand in and it gets OW

And in Arken's OP he posts two earth pictures which may be familiar to some of us here:





then, of course, funbox's blow-up of the object being discussed on Arken's thread:

if your referring to this ..



I think there dunes

reply to post by funbox


No, apparently they just got to Kimberly on Wednesday. I thought they got there a couple weeks ago. Pit stop?

reply to post by funbox



I can't see how they could be sand dunes given the size of the tracks of the rover the dunes in comparison would have to be tiny and if they were so small the wind would have long blown them away. They are also thinner than the tracks of the rover so could only be a few feet tall maximum.

edit to a link to an image of fungal growth

reply to post by johnb


interesting comparison ,,



the rover tracks are just visible , but I fail to see your point of comparison , how small do you think these dunes are to the rover tracks , they make the rover tracks look tiny , they're way bigger

reply to post by funbox


The two of you seem to be talking of different sizes, one thinking the picture is taken from the Rover on the ground, the other taken from space by the satellite. I personally believe that the answer is somewhere in-between, taken by a guy in a balloon about 40 feet above the surface of Mars, heading somewhere else, over some rainbow, where he will reign as king wizard until a stupid little dog whips back the curtain he's hiding behind and expose his behind to Dot, the big cat, the creepy scarecrow, and the walking metal guy.

reply to post by Aleister


the last laugh on the puppeteer eh Aleister , but we could al be looking at shadows.. your always giving out odds , what are the odds on a completely generated Martian landscape... 100% cgi , so realistic you can even see the camera blemishes... worthy of discussion ?

maybe we should ask the Wizard in the balloon if he knows of a computer capable of such a feat
