sadly, the light prevents every attempt of comparison, and its shape isn't clear at all, we can only "imagine" it:

HEY Glad to see you back!! Hope everything is okay

I thought maybe THEY came and got you


Here is the best I can do from the MSSS strip... The USGS one looks like a different angle, so they must have shot this one twice even though the image number is the same..

Have a look at this closeup and tell me what you thing...



As to the "spotlight effect" take the image above and put in in your graphics program... (I use thumbs plus as it has a slider control and you can watch the changes) Increase the brightness quickly... you will see your 'spotlight effect' There is only one crater in that field but the sun angle is from upper right... the effect definitely appears to be coming from the object

I will try to make an animation later

In the USGS version there is no detail at all in the blacked out area... but you can see the sun angle in the small crater... You can also see the angle of the light from the object... this one is even more dramatic in lightness change

Glad to see you too
maybe one day i'll account what happened

Thank you for your answer: i'm curious to see the animation, now...
I'd like to see the area without that sun angle, just in order to see the shape of the "hill" or whatever is it.

Another late one cruising the Mars Rovers site last night. I found a few interesting pics. Today, I issue to you, this one. What stands out about this is whats most obvious. (see links) One of them, the center is blacked out, the matching photo is not. I wonder what they didnt want us to see, yet the other photo was there. While it might be nothing, the shape is still interesting. (I'm sure I'll get flamed just as I have been in the past but I've got my my kevlar helmet on, so fire away....)

Thank you for issuing it on this thred.
I have two things to say about:
the first one is that i came accross, in the past, to similar black squares, and after some checks i've found nothing:
but the second one is that some researchers consider the objects like the one almost shell shaped in the circle as actual shells


for instance, this one:

other examples here:
/2eno28

What is neglible in our opinion, could be much interesting in someone else's one:
i've sent the link to the pic you provideed to a friend o' mine, just to know his opinion.

The anomaly appears to me to be a big piece of industrial equiptment. It looks like a giant machine, possibly for mining, like John Lear has suggested the governemnt mines on the moons. I really believe that we have been to mars already and have mined it for ore samples. This picture kinda reaffirms that belief!

thanks internos, for sending that on to your friend. Always looking forward to someone else's view....thats why were here.

Well his answer has been that it would be much better to watch at it by a lower angle (as the one of the last pic you posted, i mean). Anyway, this friend will join ATS soon, so we'll discuss with him about this kind of anomalies: this is the best we can do. He works with fossils, but he knows even a big number of kind of shells.

I've seen the seashells, it would seem Mars is teaming ... was teaming with ocean life at one time. Do the rovers have 'arms' for scooping stuff? I wonder if they scoop anything besides soil?

Zorgon is the first person able to answer to this question, because he knows very well what devices they have installed on the rovers, IMHO

anyways, I was pondering the 'lizard head', how bout the martian equivalent of a sea-horse?

anyways, just for the fun of it, i found the calcified martian bullfrog
ok, its a rock, but look at the eyes!

Well, this is very funny
i noticed it instantly and from the correct angle, this means that the shape is really close to your description (bullfrog)



And what about this "dog" i've found on Mars some times ago?
(This is just for fun, of course, good for a laugh!)

You guys just don't know how to look hard enough for anomalies. Check it out. Tail broke off, but what do you expect? I don't know where the other planes in the flight went. You find them.

These objects are extremely interesting. IF NOT computerized graphic mischief?
I studied the surface of Mars many years prior to entering our National Space Program at Cape Canaveral and the Kennedy Space Center, Florida. (1958 to 1992)
In 1954, A Japanese Astronomer and I, observed, what appeared as an explosion on Mars. We both assumed that we observed the eruption of a volcano, or a hit by a large meteorite or possible small asteroid.
Mars in not far from the Asteroid Belt out towards Jupiter.
The Mars Orbiters are sending back excellent photos of that area we saw the "flash" occur! There are, what appear as, volcanic craters in that area.
We may have observed an eruption.

We do? Why? Don't you know already that our society is spending vast sums of money to pay for a massive, humongous coverup operation by NASA/govt? We are also paying off the Chinese, the Russians and some other nations so that keep silence of the many alien artifacts they find all over the place.

John does not follow this thread, so there will be no point served here with your obviously bias rhetoric. I know it pains you greatly, but many here at ATS actually enjoy his posts and opinions
