Take a look at these images of the Hale Crate on Mars taken by Mars Express and sourced from ESA.

If you look carefully, you would probably notice the clear geometric shapes. Squares, rectangles, circles and diamond shaped structures. Can these be the result of natural geological formations, manifestations of volcanic activity, adverse pixilation effects on the images or are they artificial constructs? The resolution of these images is quite poor, and thus difficult to identify. But I think it looks suspiciously like the image of a Martian city!

Anyway, what do you suppose these geometric shapes could be?

Mike,

That's a very cool pic. If it's pixelization, it sure is attractive.

The only thing that it closely resembles to me is being in an airplane looking down over farmland, do you know how high up this pic was taking?

I'm guessing more of somekind of pixelation/anomaly.

These images were taken by the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board ESA’s Mars Express spacecraft from an altitude of approx 273 Km.

I know I know!!
It's water spurts. No, wait, it's shadows; no wait, it's...

As far as i am concerned, it is very interesting and i would venture to say that it isn't natural at all (obviously). I would be interested to know that's for sure.

Thanks mikesingh.

Very interesting! That can only be 2 things!
Non natural form of structures, or some form of problem with pixels in the picture. If its not these then I have no idea.

These are definitely interesting because of the fact these objects have certain patterns that appear to be created by someone.

this is so cool......

i don't see how anyone could mistake this for simple natural formations....

too much patterns and such......even those earth formations shown above, need water of some sort to make the pattern. If there's no water on mars......then....?

Wow amazing picture, your pretty good at finding these.

Has anyone seen the Project Red Star? It kind of has pictures like this and explains it in details.

Nice pictures everyone.

I usually hate when people post blurish photos and claim to have find "cities" or "structures", but I must admit, these look pretty interesting and there are some obvious square-like shapes. So yes, I say there might be some evidence of artificial structures there. It would be interesting to see hi res pictures of the region.

I'd say more than interesting and go as far as to say as definite structures and without a doubt some intelligent cultivated land.

Good find.

When are we going to have the technology so we can see things clearer on moon and mars?

I hate top brake it to you, but this is just JPEG compression lines. NOTHING else ...
