Unknown objects from mars

reply to post by mbaker90

This is a view of pic2 zoomed out a bit. 2 circular shaped, shall I say craft?

Any of the crater "dome" photos can be easily explained and dismissed as natural. Very common for craters to have a raised, circular dome or other odd shapes in the center of them. Happens after impact. Check google and you will learn that no problem.

So for reasons like that I I tend to dismiss crater "anomalies" as they normally tend to be posted by those that were just snooping around LOOKING for something and finding something....anything that they want to...despite not knowing anything much about what they are actually looking at. Kids see shapes in clouds, but then they grow up to understand that clouds are nothing more than water vapor and the Pokemon they saw a few years earlier wasn't real.

There are some really good things to talk about concerning Mar's anomalies, but not in this thread unfortunately.

I don't see anything out of the ordinary in this photo.

I think you have the light's direction wrong.

That's not a hole, it's just a darker area on the ground.

It could be, but there are better evidence for that.

I think it's a dust devil, they appear in several photos.

That last one is an eye opener.

You should send it to Richard Hoagland.

That must be one TALL dust devil to have such a long, strong shadow... and I've never seen such a metallic dust devil...

... but I've never been to Mars, what do I know?

I know nothing, but this is one of the most impressive Mars photos I've seen in a long, long, time. This is more impressive to me than Hoaglands work. I would love to see more of these "dust devils"....

Yeah, because that guy will get down to the bottom of it, lol. Fools like him, and the fools that follow him make this subject disgusting.

There is anothe metalic object to the right at 34 degrees 18'25.70" N 175 degrees 52'19.22"
I don't know how to post it yet.

Check out your image inverted. Now do you think those look like UFOs or just plain nondescript craters?
It's just a question of perception! And your Sun's direction is incorrect!

My 2 cents...

Image number and source please

If I may sir,and I could be wrong,
but they are picture shots from google earth,then google mars,then find the coordinates.
At least thats how I followed up on them.
Try to post my own pics,but I'm too stupid to figure it out,but I did give coordinants.
Just my 2 cents.

the "ufo" things are just craters or such.
But the bright shiny things are of interest.the shadow is questionable because of sun angle.
I don't know,but I found several of them in this area.
And also some interesting outcroppings that look rectangalur and square in that area also.

Some really good pics. The only one that strikes me as strange is the metallic object. If it is a "dust devil" what would make it glow so bright?

Martian dust devil.

The bright material is the dust within the vortex, and a dark shadow cast by the dust devil is visible to the right. The diameter of this dust devil is about 200 meters, but at the surface it is probably much smaller. Based on the length of the shadow in this image, the dust devil is on the order of 500 meters tall.

Nice pic but it's nothing like the pic in the OP..
The OP's pic shows something slim and tall if you go by the shadow..

The shadow looks very straight and uniform..

Do you think every dust devil is the same?

No, but do you think everything that looks like that in a pic is a dust devil?
The shadow looks too well defined to me but that's just an opinion..

Very cool pictures to have stumbled upon using google. Technology these days...The one with the metallic object casting a shadow is intriguing. I wish it was a bit more clear. Possibly something we put there to collect samples? But would that cast such a shadow? I am not hip with the size and dimensions of the dust devil, but that cascading shadow is an eye opener.

Different dust devils. Different shadows.
Another Martian dust devil. With a well defined shadow.

When this dust devil was spied in Amazonis Planitia on April 10th, the MOC was looking straight down. Usually when the camera is looking down the dust devil will appear as a circular, fuzzy patch with a straight shadow indicating its columnar shape. In this case, however, the dust devil is somewhat curved and kinked---its shape is best seen in the shadow it casts to the right.
