I tend to agree with you Keith because I've found people,animals,fossils since 2004 and designed the rovers 1987. jpl123@inbox.com Keith ,unfortunately you're in the 1% of people who can see these things.

So you say and you also say to look at SERIOUS anomalies yet when I show you such you as well as others just ignore it. You profess to be interested in the fossils yet make no comment on the NASA images from a NASA presentation in this post

www.abovetopsecret.com...

To me that means you have no serious interest in ANY anomalies and thus you must only be interested in wasting time with BS arguments. There are two very interesting images in that slide and its from a NASA source and NASA is obviously aware of them as it is presented by their chief scientist...

Now as you continue to ignore what this implies I cannot but question your sincerity in your request to study 'real' anomalies

ArMaP at least took the time to study the one of Humphrey and help prove that there was no trilobite on that rock, before OR after the Rover drilled into it.... so that makes it obvious that Garvin using that in a presentation was quite simply put... LYING TO HIS AUDIENCE

The other 'artifact' I am still looking for..

Personally, I have difficulty with the whole "it looks like" premise. Most of us have seen photos of New Hampshire's "Old man of the mountain." It is even on their States Quarter. Indeed, it does look just like the face of a man, but we ll know that it is a rock formation and nothing more. Just because someone thinks that a rock looks somewhat like a rat doesn't mean much without more significant data. I can point you to a large collection of images which look like something that they are not. They are quite common on Earth, and finding them off Earth should come as no surprise.

If someone were to show me better evidence than a bunch of "looks like" photos I would be more impressed. I am willing to consider the possibilities, but these types of photos are much like seeing animal shapes in the clouds. Smoking gun...? No way. Not even close. More like smoking something else.

Extraordinary claims, require extraordinary evidence. ArMap has the right idea, of careful study, detailed evidence, and rational thought. If said "rat" is alive as some have claimed, could someone please show me the tracks it left traveling around the area. Perhaps you could also show me what it eats, or how it breaths in the extremely thin atmosphere without massive lung capacity. How does it survive the extreme temperature and where does it live? I simply want to know more, than just looking at a picture of a rock that looks like something. Even fossils found on Earth offer more additional evidence than this photo does.

Am I skeptical..? Yes. Not because I do not believe in the possibility of life on Mars, I most certainly do, but rather because this evidence is extremely weak and based solely on the idea that an image merely has the appearance of something similar to Earth based life. The moon appears to have a face on it, but that doesn't mean that it is alive.

So can I my website
www.thelivingmoon.com...

And I have the "LOOKS LIKE" anomalies from Mars and the Moon

As most people see such anomalies first, cataloging them does to things... provides some interesting images and eliminates them from the big picture. I see nothing wrong with presenting the 'looks like' images along with other more serious anomalies.

The fact that so many others here do the same and get a lot of interest is proof enough that there IS an interest in such material... Take Mike Singh's threads for example... His threads are very popular... showing the same things... LOL but he has an anti skeptic talisman... because so far he hasn't suffered the abuse (now don't ya'll go rushing over there.... )

They are quite common on Earth, and finding them off Earth should come as no surprise.


And pray tell how do you KNOW they are common on Earth? Maybe because someone took the time to SHOW you them? Took the time to collect them on a website? As you say one is on a coin... several of them are popular landmarks... so why is there a problem showing them on the Moon or Mars? The OP link CLEARLY states "Its most likely a rock" What part of that did you miss?


If someone were to show me better evidence than a bunch of "looks like" photos I would be more impressed. I am willing to consider the possibilities, but ....


I doubt that really I do... "your willing to consider the possibilty BUT.." I have shown images that are more serious... like the NASA slide in this thread Care to comment on that? No? No surprise there...

How about THIS one...? If this doesn't get your interest, I don't believe anything will... No enhancements not high lighting just a simple enlargement from the original posted at a NASA site



I post some serious images and I get silence... I post a 'looks like a rat" and all hell breaks loose... and yet you skeptics scream for better evidence... HA what's the point?

Even fossils found on Earth offer more additional evidence than this photo does.


Yes so do the fossils found on Mars but they are treated with equal scorn by the skeptics despite the fact that NASA itself presents them... So as I said what's the point? You claim to want to see... but refuse to take off the blindfold...

Now please show me you have a serious interest in 'finding the truth' and answer in regards to the NASA presentation slide...

If not I will have my own conclusions on just who is blowing smoke

Dang!

FEMA's got "relocation" camps on Mars?!?

Even "The Old Man of The Mountain" moved:

The Old Man of the Mountain is No More

All we're "permitted" to know about possible Martian life must be filtered through what we know about Earth based life forms, and that which we can surmise, from the hints of what may be, in the images they "allow" us to witness and observe.

The answers to questions concerning the form and features of life on Mars won't be known until we can put "boots on the ground."

Fortunately, that may happen a bit sooner than that which was originally proposed under the "VSE."

Some of the most influential leaders of the space community are quietly working to offer the next U.S. president an alternative to President Bush's "vision for space exploration"--one that would delete a lunar base and move instead toward manned missions to asteroids along with a renewed emphasis on Earth environmental spacecraft.

Top U.S. planetary scientists, several astronauts and former NASA division directors will meet privately at Stanford University on Feb. 12-13 to define these sweeping changes to the NASA/Bush administration Vision for Space Exploration (VSE).

Abandoning the Bush lunar base concept in favor of manned asteroid landings could also lead to much earlier manned flights to Mars orbit, where astronauts could land on the moons Phobos or Deimos.
Spaceflight Now | Moon Stuck | Space leaders work to replace lunar base with manned asteroid missions

Unfortunately, if these plans are adopted, it means we'll be sidestepping further lunar activity.

(Besides their publicly stated justifications, one must wonder for what other reasons, once again, they are putting new lunar exploration on the back burner?)

It may be true then, as someone stated; the next men to publicly step on the moon, will speak Chinese.

Relax Zorgon, I am not attacking you. I simply stated that I find "looks like" photos to be distracting from actual scientific evidence.

As for the NASA presentation image.... One must realize that this was for a presentation on the what we are looking for and what we may find. They were not intended to depict actual events, but to point to various levels of possible outcome. Adding in a fossil to a presentation image is not outlandish. I have seen numerous images on what we hope to find, or what we may find, and they are based on possibilities and do not depict actual events. I built the Mars Quest exhibit for the Space Science Institute and it contains both science and speculation. It contained work from JPL and one of the worlds leading science exhibit designers. I recently built and installed a different exhibit for the Smithsonian Air and Space museum in Washington DC, and can assure you that like many museums, the Smithsonian also contains speculative information. NASA's use of an Earth fossil in a presentation is much like detroit showing foam models of concept cars. It gets the idea across, but does not mean that it is real yet.

As for the other black and white NASA photo you have presented, while I find the image interesting, lack of further data does not allow me to form any particular opinion on it's meaning. It could be the result of a number of things. Yes, it is interesting. Lacking further data, it proves little this far.

Personally, I feel that adding in the photoshopped animation of the "rat" disappearing, detracts from it's veracity. Untouched photos are more credible than someone's suggested version.

Ah ! Lord Zorgon, we joust again sir! As always a interesting post wether someone believes or not, thank you for posting.

I think I may have found where the fuzzy little guy made off to when he left the rock, I'm trying to post a couple pics to show you.


We are looking for this little guy.




I think I found his friends in this pic, one standing up against the rock, his fur red from the soil and his tail sticking out as a sign of aggression. He is looking at the other critter marked by the arrow. This one looks a lot like the one by the rover, you can even see his tummy!




The one standing up is similar to this groundhog pictured on earth,





Just a couple of observations, not saying they are real and I haven't been to Mars recently but, The one by the rover looks like its sitting on fresh earth like from a burrow. So does the one under the arrow. You can make out the paunch (stomach) of the one under the arrow.

Also the one standing against the rock, you can make out what may be ears and hind legs.

As I said, interesting thread as always, I believe 100% percent in life beyond earth, I have not had the an experience of my own yet, (hoping) but a very close friend of mine interacted with a alien ship and its crew for 5 to 11 days when he was about 15 years old, I've known him for 20 years and never known a lie to come from his mouth. I believe him.

If mars had life and it was destroyed it might make sense that burrowing animals may have survived, isn't that what happened here when we lost the dinosaurs?



Ladies and gentlemen, the real mystery is not whether there is life on mars, the real mystery is how I finally figured out putting pics in my post! thanks for your patience.
