Curiosity: Potential Anomalies (Update 01/2014)

Good finds everybody, and I still don't think the bluethingy is totally smashed, the door to that question is still open, at least a crack....but the best thing that may have happened on the thread that I did my Larry David impression on is, well, back up a bit to this thread. Remember earlier in the thread when Blue Shift found a possible spoke creature which may or may not be just photo/pixel artifacts: www.abovetopsecret.com...

His pic/gif of that find:


...well, he found another Spoke creature. It's on this post, and he probably won't mind "the bringing of the picture" over here:
www.abovetopsecret.com...

...he calls his gif a Mars Sponge:

MARS SPONGE:


Bottom line:

No, not that bottom line, this one:

Yet another spoke creature has been found. And it's got the rim.

on Arkens thread there discussing in more detail , the unusual shadow that appears to be cast from it, but of course it probably not a shadow

I remember bam-bam fondly.

Does everyone agree with ArtMap that the little blue thingy is that rock that he pointed out? I'm looking at your slow 5-second recycling gif for many minutes, and even though it's a possibility I still can't make my eyes agree that it is the final answer. What's your nonexpert opinion to add to my unexpert guesstimate.

I would like to point out that well before Arken's thread went up funbox found the fairy ring and posted it on this thread, and then Char-Lee found the cone head which funbox then imaged, both posted here before Arken's thread started. He then found them independently, and the site got into the big discussion of them there. This thread seems to be where the stuff is happening, from the Spoke creatures to the Little Green martians to lots of the good stuff going on. We rock! (or is that we rocks?)

And if you look above the third arrow, is a phallic protrusion, them martians knew how to party i guess?
Sometimes a rock is just a rock...

Wow, no one likes my corpse pic? And ya don't have to squint or imagine anything, like the blue guy by the wheel. He is laying there, dead, clear as day. I have reading glasses that simply magnify, so maybe use a magnifying glass, I dunno, but he is clear as a bell to me. Both arms, balding in the front, face is facing the overturned vehicle. He has long, black or dark brown hair, and perhaps a big head, or busted skull in the back, or his hair is laying funny.

I mean, it was the first thing I saw after I saw the wheel, the blue guy, the shiny black thing, and the black thing below the wheel standing up.

In front of corpse dude, there also appears to be something, perhaps an antenna, sticking straight up about where his abdomen would be. It's hard to see, but it's there.

Lots of very strange stuff in that pic. Even behind blue guy, there is something alien looking with blondish hair, laying over the wreckage, like it died in the accident.

I agree, it almost looks like an explosion, or, they guy topped the hill in his dune buggy, and rolled. Either way, he must have been an artifact collector, because all of the stuff looks like it came from, or was part of his vehicle.

Now, the question is, did he come over the hill and hit the blonde alien dude, or, was blonde alien dude in the dune buggy with him, and a casualty of the accident?

Sometimes, people are looking so hard for stuff, ya can't see the forest for the trees. That seems to be whats going on here.

Step back and look at the scene. You don't have to look so deep, it's all right there! Use a magnifying glass, seriously, if ya have to.

Okay, figured I would join in the fun.

Corpse guy with antenna or.. something, sticking up around his abdomen, and something blueish by his left ear, or on his left shoulder. Down to the left, you can see his shoes... oh, see the circular thing the shoes are on/by? He looks like he has a mustache.

Oh, there also appears to be something sticking up from the ground in front of the shoes, right at the circular thing.



The blonde head by the blue guy, and another brown haired head below. The smaller brown haired head looks like a younger version of corpse guy. His kid? It's even bald looking on top, and has the enlarged cranium in the back.



Close up of third head. Note how large the back of the head is. It looks smaller, perhaps younger, than corpse guy. Is the blonde the mother?



House on hill behind the cone thing.



What looks like some type of cooking pot with the lid part way off. The while area almost appears to be a fire pit, with the pot in the middle. This is to the right of the cone thing.



A dog, or two? Or goat? Some sort of animal, to the left of the cone thing. Note, to the left of the creature, up on the hill, is some type of ball on top of a short post, like a lever or switch? Is this some type of built enclosure for the creatures? It almost appears as if the top of the wall was placed there.



What are the rings across the belly of corpse guy? They go further than what I cropped, across his belly, and beyond the corpse, perhaps another 3 or 4 more rings than I captured. At the top of the rings, it almost appears to be a container that spilled out some material.

Yet another spoke creature has been found. And it's got the rim.

Or just a rock mixed up with the rest of the ground.

The fact that almost all of these findings are based in things found at a distance that makes them impossible to distinguish clearly should be a sign that the findings are a result of lack of detail that allows us to interpret what's on the image.

Why are not "spokes" on rocks close to the camera, for example?

Few more images.

Close up of lever on wall by the creature(s). Also, I noticed a bulb shaped object with a tulip shape coming out of it. Is this an organic object? The house behind the cone thing looked like it had organic growth, and I will be posting another housing compound with a wall that appears to have organic growth. Is this our first glimpse of alien plant life? Perhaps the thing sticking up by the circular item by corpse guys shoes is a plant, as well?



This is from the cone pic. I see a skull with horns, and something right below it that looks oddly like.. well, a gas can. Perhaps some type of helmet? Its an odd "rock". The skull is unmistakeable, the horns are somewhat asymetrical, as they would be in nature.




What looks like a housing compund. Complete with a gazebo on a hill (a lookout?), a wall surrounding it, and several structures. The wall extends to a secondary area with more buildings. In the large area, one side is flanked by a huge boulder, on the right. Much of the surrounding area looks organic in nature. Growth, plants, trees, etc. This was also from the cone pic, in the skyline.



Original, unenhanced non- color version.



And, a bit more on corpse guy. The silver, metalic looking thing below his torso seemed to me to look like.. armor? A skirting of some type?

So, it appears his torso was perhaps torn apart. In this image, the silver part looks like some sort of lower body armor, distorted from the accident. In evidence, you can see his legs... the right knee is bent, the left leg is straight, but a mangled mess. A portion of his thigh appears on the rock, his mangled foot right by the shoe. The armor appears to have been literally torn off his body.



As I said, if you can't see it, use a magnifying glass, as I have magniglfying glasses, and the images are obviously attuned to my vision.

All of these images were created on an Android, using simple software that came with the phone. The images were either downloaded here, as in the cone pic, or, from NASA, as in the wreckage pic. The only image manipulation I used was sharpen, grain, highlights, shadow, saturation, and warmth. Oh, and crop.

In no way did I add to, or take from any images.

Is there sound on mars? The atmosphere is around 130th the density on earth. If you suck 99.5 percent of the air out of a jar you can not hear a bell ringing. Also if you then add flour to the vacuum and turn a fan on ,the flour/powder will not budge. Ergo martian dust has way smaller particles of dust then anything found on earth.
We are all being lied too.
These threads are really pointless,its like being told they are no fleas on a dog and to prove there is fleas on a a dog,we have have to accept close up photos of a tortoise.
Why is it that nasa has not highlighted any anomolies,investigate it and give us the results. Why isnt there one nasa scientist discussing new photos with the public? Why is it that amateurs have to find anomolies all the time? Nasa should be taking a lead on strange rocks,they should explain all anomolies. No they imo are hiding what they know.
So when we find something interesting nasa either deliberatly dont point a camera in that direction again and if they do they photoshop the image to make it looks like a rock. I think all mars anomoly hunters know exactly what im on about.

reply to post by symptomoftheuniverse


Exactly.
No other words.

For instance,will they go to investigate this tempel shaped rock at the top centre of this image? mars.jpl.nasa.gov... i doubt it!
And another thing which has been said since the start of the mission,why are the long shots so blurry? Smog?

its difficult to tell Aleister, the perspective between the photographs is quite harsh , the only thing I see getting more detail between the pics is the cylinder shape next to it ,still looks odd to me

Could be. Yet there are quite a few of them, so they seem worth pointing out as more of them are found, all with similar, if not identical, characteristics (the central bulge, the vug on the bulge, the "spokes", and some with the rim), and what's needed with these is a poster like me saying "Look at all of them" and a poster like you bringing me down to Earth (or in this case, Mars) with rational explanations. Hopefully some will be discovered near the camera, or NASA will wander closer to one and give us a close-up. If not, and they are all the same illusion, at least the illusion is fairly consistent.

So the mystery remains, and the next mystery awaits!
