Boom! An alien! Seth Shostack, Senior Astronomer and Director of the Center for SETI Research had this to say about the image:
“Those that send them to me are generally quite excited, as they claim that these frequently resemble SOMETHING you wouldn’t expect to find on the rusty, dusty surface of the Red Planet. It’s usually some sort of animal, but occasionally even weirder objects such as automobile parts. Maybe they think there are cars on Mars.”
He added:
“Recognizing a crab in a landscape filled with wind-weathered rocks is no more surprising — nor more significant — than seeing a winking face in a semi-colon followed by a parenthesis. ;)”
Here we have a thigh bone.
Bigfoot.
Some sort of shiny debris.
A UFO.
An iguana.
The face of a goat creature.
Two dinosaurs about to fight.
And lastly, a finger.
