George B Extinct But Not Forgotten! User ID: 19998253 United States 03/20/2013 08:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thread: Poll Humanoid Figure on Mars . . . What is it??? Mars Humanoid Figure . . . What is it??? Assumed factors: The figure is only 2.36 inches tall . . . does that change the probabilities of options (1-4)? :Mars Artifact la: If we assign each option (1-4) below with the same probability of being correct they would each have the same 25% chance. I contend that all of the options are possible; however, the probability of their being true are NOT the same . . . 1) Humanoid figure is living life form . . . stationary or moving (If earth is a model to us possible examples would be the goliath beetle and other insect and the shrew the smallest mammal). (25% Probable) 2) Humanoid figure was object created by intelligent life (If earth is a model possibilities are discarded: toy, good luck charm, small religious statuette, etc.) (25% Probable) 3) Humanoid figure is rock (non-fossil) formed by nature (Crystal formation or mineral vein which is weathered free, etc.) (25% Probable) 4) Humanoid figure was organic (plant life, fossil etc.) but shape like humanoid randomly (Mandrake root, tuber, fossil weathered free) (25% Probable) 5) Humanoid figure is JPEG Compression Artifact 6) Other . . . please Post Your Response . . . Assumed factors: The figure is only 2.36 inches tall . . . does that change the probabilities of options (1-4)? Analysis: We know there are creatures of many varieties that are less than 2.36 inches high (i.e. many insects, and the smallest mammal the shrew). We know that a statuette or toy or carving can be less than 2.36 inches high. We know that roots of tubers and small fossils can be exposed by weathering . . . amorphous organic clumping which suggest anatomic figures . We know that a small mineral or metal veins or complex crystal can be exposed by weathering . . . Unlike the video I find it more difficult and less probable that the image is an exposed mineral vein, complex crystal, or just weathered and carved stone which is less than 2.36 inches . . . an intelligent life artifact or an organic growth processes is much more capable of such an anthropomorphic figure especially of such a small size. POLL: Poll Humanoid Figure on Mars . . . What is it??? 3) Humanoid figure is rock (non-fossil) formed by nature 51.2% (85) 2) Humanoid figure was object created by intelligent life 19.9% (33) 1) Humanoid figure is living life form . . . stationary or moving 18.1% (30) 5) Humanoid figure is JPEG Compression Artifact 4.2% (7) 4) Humanoid figure was organic (plant life, fossil etc.) 3.6% (6) 6) Other . . . please Post Your Response . . . 3.0% (5) Blank (View Results) (24) Non-Blank Votes: 166 Last Edited by George B on 03/20/2013 08:07 AM Martin Luther King . . .

Please leave a comment, and remember to have fun! :) great catch, I love George, but it could be just a rock. I think the only way we're going to know for sure is to have video that reveals motion rather than just stills. Surely they must have video attached to the Rover? I'm wondering why we only see stills - stills obviously can't detect motion and we can easily interpret rocks for things that appear alive. |

Quoting: Anonymous 843492 Lizards however, as far as we know, cannot live in cold climates. This would have to be an exception, or perhaps a new species. Maybe a mammalian lizard. I'm going to call George a "Lesser Spotted Martian Gecko Rat" THIS IS MARS, WE ARE ON EARTH. and there is a thing called evolution you know? |

Edge Rider User ID: 1377922 United States 03/20/2013 10:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | after curiosity broke a rock in half that exposed a white interior, is it becoming obvious that mars is covered with a thick layer of iron oxide sediment? but where did all this iron oxide come from? is it possible that this is the rust of ancient decayed cities that has been evenly scattered over the planet by millions of years of wind and erosion? will we one day discover that we were not the first advanced race in the solar system, or even better, that we are one in the same?
