Kind of looks like Frank Lloyd Wright was doing his thing on Mars.

this is absolutely nuts.
no clue when it comes to the what/how/when/who.
all i know is that our gov loves the control of information.
the how and why behind this photograph being released is beyond me.
i can't see how a slip like this, if it is one, would be accidental.

it's like we're coming out of the intermission and getting ready for the third act of the greatest drama ever(never) written.

i'm sure there is a rational explanation...
i'm assuming we'll get one.

i hope(not really, bring on the martians)

edit: nevmind. after reviewing images from the jpl site it's, not so obviously, the canopy of the rover being distorted in the image.

bummer.

Tobad that thing is driving around in the outback of australia and not Mars.

As others have mentioned, the "structures" are nothing more than bottom of an outcropping of the rover itself.

Switch between these two pictures and you'll see it more clearly:

marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov...
marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov...

What you're picturing as flat desert is actually the sky and what you think is the sky is actually the bottom of the cover. The reason the objects look so suspiciously man-made is because they are

I took this picture and changed it twice. The first time to "negative", and the second picture to "heat seek color" gives one a whole new perspective. Makes many areas stand out as interesting in their own right.
