I am glad that you see the skull, but I am not sure just why you think it is a natural formation.
rdunk, why is it so difficult for you to understand the concept of pareidolia?

Why don't you take a stroll through this related thread from 2009 and look for similarities.
I just skimmed it, looks like in this case they are discussing a so-called "skull" (like yours, it's just a rock) in some of the photos taken by the other Rover, Spirit.

but why were my anomaly discoveries any different?

There are many fascinating objects to look at in the image, including the object that appears as a skull. As Corruption Exposed pointed out, it is a round smooth object while the remainder of the material appears to have sharp angular lines and that is very intriguing. Unfortunately, the resolution and distance of the original image doesn't appear to provide any of the detail needed to closely study the object and any conclusions would just be speculation. The fact this is located in an impact crater makes it difficult to think it is anything other than a unique geological object. It's just too bad the rover couldn't have passed closer to these objects.

Sorry but.....any form of material that would comprise a Alien or Human skull would be long disintegrated over time....especially that mars has an atmosphere and severe dust storms.
Mars once may have hosted life but when it's liquid metalic core cooled to the point of no longer spinning thus......no protective magnetic field....like Earth enjoys and keeps us very much alive thank you....all possible life on Mars would have died.....Oceans boiled off and water vapor split radiation and UV light from the sun into it's base elements.
No matter how manny times I explain to a specific family member....that when you boil a pot of water....it does not seperate H20 into seperate Hydrogen and oxygen atoms....but instead just becomes a different state of water...because of the temp.....thus....colder....you get a solid...ice.....212 F. or 100 C....you get water vapor....which is H20 Molecules seperated apart from other H20 via temp.
In between 32F and 212F.....we have water in a liquid form. The Oceans of Mars not only boiled off they were chemically reacted to elemental states that eventualy were Solar Blown Off the Planet.
By the way....I beg of anyone here...PLEASE don't bring up support for intelligent design. If you want to believe in GOD I respect that....But intelligent design books are absolute nonsense and have no right to be taught to kids because it is a LIE....and a provable lie at that!

Hehe, try this. This guy is pretty knowledgeable about all this stuff. Keith Laney. He does not do "grainy" from what I've seen and explains it all quite well too.
Good Mars Photos and Lots of Them

Hence I didn't link any of his photos, just the site itself. He has many photos of many different things, not just Mars and he appears to be quite the expert too. Its a cool site he has.edit on 3/12/11 by LightSpeedDriver because: ETA

....it is not "human nature" to deny seeing what is obvious and actually presented/present in a photo!

But, IMO, it is not "human nature" to deny seeing what is obvious and actually presented/present in a photo! To do that requires personal direct motive, purpose, and alternative intentions, which are also generally obvious.
Just say'in!
