Truly awesome. How would that come to be?

As for it being manmade, I highly doubt it.

5 Km high WTF?!?!

Did you go and look at the original images from Mars?
Did the author of the video bother to go and look at the original images from Mars?
Nope.
Given the huge number of patching artifacts that we've seen over the years from google earth (and moon etc..) from patching images together, this new one is worth NOTHING until somebody can find it on an original NASA image.

could be the inspiration fo rthe Burj Khalifa

though that building is only 828m/2717 ft high

can't wait to stay there!

Well, there ya go!

Who gonna debunk this.

It's gotta be natural formation right?

As I said above, I'm going with computer generated stiching artifact, of which we've seen many over the years on google earth.
I particularly wasnt impressed by the way it "pops up" in the video once a certain resolution was reached.
(16 seconds into the video) Just like objects in some computer games.

How do we know this isnt a glitch in the 3D model?

You do know this is 3D model right?

why do, no offense, "old people" always assume computers are infallible?

this is so obviously just some glitch. its embarrassing to waste everyones time(yours included) on such ignorant fantasy.

this reminds me of richard c hoagland going on and on about the freaking pixels on old digital photos of mars being crops and buildings and ruins and whatever the hell else he sees when hes tripping balls and looking at those things.


either get more versed in the ways of how computers ACTUALLY WORK, or stop jumping to fantastic conclusions before asking for qualified opinion.

most blinking lights in the sky are either planes or stars.
pointing to a helicopter and screaming "its an angel!" wont make it true.

I'm going to guess that when someone or some piece of software was laying down the terrain mesh for this spot 5000 meters was accidentally input instead of 500 meters or 50 meters. So, instead of either a minor bump or a large hill, you get what looks like an impossible tower.

As the other poster said, lets see this area on the photographic maps of Mars before we jump to conclusions. Google Maps meant to be used as a resource, but isn't there to be used for making scientific discoveries. It's very, very far from being a flawless font of raw data. In fact it's nothing of the sort.

Yeah sure, its just a glitch no need to verify from the originals. /sarcasm

Lets check the originals before reaching conclusions please.

No need, we'll just assume NASA "fixed" the originals
