[quote:Anonymous Coward 19989881:MV8xOTI5NDQ2XzMyMzE3MjY1X0EwRkZCRTk3] It's just swamp gas glistering off some ice crystals. Nasa jump to conclusion way to soon on this which is now creating panic. [/quote]
Original Message
Nasa scientists are baffled as to what - or maybe even who? - created this unusual hole on the surface of Mars.
The hole was discovered by chance on images of the dusty slopes of the Red Planet's Pavonis Mons volcano.
It appears to be an opening to an underground cavern, partly illuminated to the right of the opening.

Come on GLP investigators, what you think??
Black Hole in Center of Mars consuming the Planet??
Alien Craft Crashed??
Laser been Fired there??
Meteor Impact??
Santa's New Home (White dust, looks like snow)
Why the Illumination??
Edit:
Found the original Nasa link and information:
Explanation: What created this unusual hole in Mars? The hole was discovered by chance on images of the dusty slopes of Mars' Pavonis Mons volcano taken by the HiRISE instrument aboard the robotic Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter currently circling Mars. The hole appears to be an opening to an underground cavern, partly illuminated on the image right. Analysis of this and follow-up images revealed the opening to be about 35 meters across, while the interior shadow angle indicates that the underlying cavern is roughly 20 meters deep. Why there is a circular crater surrounding this hole remains a topic of speculation, as is the full extent of the underlying cavern. Holes such as this are of particular interest because their interior caves are relatively protected from the harsh surface of Mars, making them relatively good candidates to contain Martian life. These pits are therefore prime targets for possible future spacecraft, robots, and even human interplanetary explorers..
