Curiosity finds a mystery object on Mars

That's a double headed hammer.
It either got left on the set, if the Mars thing is fake,
or is on Mars, left by some construction worker.

Absolute BS It's a Rock thread should be closed, suggested unpin...

Dumbass. What kind of shits really been found there?

You think Im the dumbass you little sheeple? Do your own research fool. It's all been hidden from you blind little boy!

You shouldn't call someone dumbass who knows first hand when you know nothing!

its an alien baby alogator.

It's the Loch Ness Monster!!!

looks like either an unoxidized iron/other metal deposit, or an ancient alien artifact. either way i don't care.

Parts from the old civilization that was once thriving?

We all know about the Face of mars and the pyramids and old but powerful civilization...

Good find!

Face of mars was proven to be an illusion several years ago.

Hoagland even gave up on that "theory" if you want to call it that.

MRO and MGS have both taken higher resolution images of the "face". Turns out it's nothing like face, at all.

It is a hematite cluster. Same thing the trillions of Martian "Blueberries" are made of (you can sometimes find those stuck together too). The rover can't have gone far from where it's shown bazillions of those things.

So to answer your question about "what are the chances" of it being formed by natural causes, I'm going to go with "probably right about 100%".

Your mileage may vary.

it is not likely natural i have looked at it for an hour

is silver metallic and symmetrical

looks like the backside of a euro-cabinet hinge with two silver bottlecaps as "ears" then on the front are two matching small black triangular "eyes"

maybe even seeing a corner of a cube forming the base protruding nearest the rock

i have a 10x brightness monitor

more likely we will find junk or trash than life on mars

Hematite cluster.

Looks like a hunk of peacock ore.

wonder if it was made in china?

I can also say that this appears in Atlantic, which is marketed to upper-middle class intellectuals, rather than in tabloids.

That says something about the marketing direction of this sort of information. It is no longer for the fringe only. If it goes well, expect to see more of it.

...This "is" a real story.
