Pareidolia (seeing what isn't there) isn't confined just to earth objects. Lights and shadows can explain a lot of what YouTube user StephenHannardADGUK is seeing in NASA's Mars Curiosity photographs. After seeing following photograph analysis, it's clear that Stephen is merely suffering from something that has infected a lot of "paranormal experts". Here's pareidolia at its best:
Alien Disclosure UK, has been gazing at the latest images from the Curiosity Rover, and has collected a fine collection of oddities.
These include white 'flying objects' zooming across the Martian sky - and then a collection of mysterious 'items' he spotted in a video from Gale Crater.
The image shows what appears to be a rock shaped like a digit with a faint outline at one end that vaguely resembles a fingernail.
Another rock found nearby resembles an overturned sandal, and a crevice on another geological formation looks like a smiling Martian critter.
He announced: 'Mars Curiosity captures a possible ancient finger, a dome shaped object, a shoe or sandal and a possible Martian creature.
'Are these anomalies real, tricks of the light or something else, as always you decide.'
The YouTube video - posted by a Stephen Hannard - puts the photograph through many different filters to try to find more clues as to their existence. A fourth blob can be seen to the top of this image
Two lights are seen on Mars. First (top), a light moves across the Martian horizon, and second (bottom) a small light rises from the surface of the planet
On the right foot: The alien looks too small to get any use out of the boot - just one of the many mysteries of Mars
Ancient digit: From the Face on Mars, captured by NASA in 1976, to the 'finger' found just last week, Mars likes to tease us with suggestions of life
Martian footwear: Another rock that caught the attention of the UFO enthusiast made him think of a long-forgotten shoe or sandal on the surface of the Red Planet
Martian life form: An image of a rock with a crevice in the middle vaguely resembles a grinning extra-terrestrial critter
Incredible: Nasa's Curiosity shows the base of Mount Sharp, the rover's eventual science destination, in its latest image release
UFO or camera snafu: The same relentless web user posted footage in which he applied a series of filters to a Curiosity image, revealing what he claimed to be four objects resembling flying saucers
Theory debunked: Experts came out saying that the four 'saucers' are actually just dead pixels in the rover's camera
I'll just remember that next time I want to fund my little science project; that your money belongs to me, because you apparently think it's acceptable to forcibly steal to satisfy one's intellectual curiosity. Collectivists like you are a cancer that has no right to exist. The greatest thing you could ever do with your life is to end it.
That upright thing there with its big grin doesn't appear to be a trick of the light, especially from afar you can tell it's solid and there. Whatever it is. I like that shoe too but the whole Marsian panorama is like three photos of three different pieces of scenery on top of each other, looks spliced together somehow.
That's the worst Bigfoot ever,one that's a car thief.Sorry bastards stole my 68' 442 and shot me the finger as they tore out of my driveway throwing beer bottles out the window while running over my dog.
This story was circulating the internet way back in 2004, or maybe as far back as 1999. Back when everybody was on 56k dial-up modems and a "Facebook" was just a regular book with directory listing of names and headshots. This story was so disturbing and so shocking that nobody believed it at the time. It was the Robert Lindsay " Bear Hunter: Two Bigfoots Shot and DNA Samples Taken " story of the time. And like Robert's Bear Hunter story , this witness didn't have a name. The only thing known about the witness is that this person was a government employee, anonymous of course. The author of the story was a science teacher named Thom Powell who believe it really happened and that the whole story was an elaborate cover-up. Powell said the anonymous government employee alerted the BFRO about a 7.5 feet long/tall burn victim with "multiple burns on hands, feet, legs and body; some 2nd and 3rd degree burns". Sadly, there was no DNA samples taken from...
Rumors abound on whether or not Finding Bigfoot will continue, but hopeful news is on the horizon. Snake Oil Productions, the production company responsible for Finding Bigfoot, is seeking a permit for filming in the Monterey, Virginia area. Monterey lies between the Monongahela and George Washington National Forests. Definitely a good place to look for bigfoot. We can only speculate if this means Finding Bigfoot has been signed on for additional seasons, or if perhaps a new bigfoot show is in the works. We'll keep you updated on any further announcements for sure.
Editor's Note: This is a guest post by Suzie M., a sasquatch enthusiast. Crypto-linguists believe that the species known Bigfoot/Sasquatch/Yeti/Yowie ect speak and understand a complex language, which by all accounts seems to stem from Asia. When one listens to it there is definitely a sense of it being Chinese or Japanese. It is a very odd mix of sounds, clicks and what could be actual words. This is the reason some experts are looking into the Asian dialect theory, some have said it could be a lost dialect, which was carried from Asia by the Bigfoot species that colonised America.
Well, it's obvious to me that the second "creature" is a Leprechaun without his little hat...
ReplyDeleteI agree. It is a Leprechaun but it's sun bathing in the nude rubbing one out.JMHO.
DeleteOh well,back to my Angry Birds.
DeleteYep, by spending millions and millions of tax dollars NASA has proven that rocks exist on mars.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah what a waste of money.
DeleteI mean honestly what have we every gotten from NASA or space technology.
You stupid tool.
I truly wish there was a sarcasm key.
Educate yourself before you wreck yourself.
Hey asshole,

Millions and millions? lol Try tens of billions and billions.
DeleteWhere is the monkey man monster? I want to see him.
ReplyDeleteCheck the mirror.
DeleteMars bars are good, but I prefer snikers.
ReplyDeleteOh, I just care ever so much.

ReplyDeleteyep bigfoot exists on mars, we have known about this for a while
ReplyDeleteall you skeptics need to take a look at the evidence its right there in front of you
if you want to discuss this theory and others in more detail, in a deep and critical way join us over on the bigfootforums
Bigfoot was put here by aliens, why is it so hard to believe that they exist elsewhere?
ReplyDeleteI've seen them sufing, hiking, and also driving stolen cars.
That's the worst Bigfoot ever,one that's a car thief.Sorry bastards stole my 68' 442 and shot me the finger as they tore out of my driveway throwing beer bottles out the window while running over my dog.
DeleteNevermind the dog,I loved that car.
Speaking of seeing things that aren't there.What would it really take to make you stop believing in bigfoot serious question.
ReplyDeleteFor you to quit posting here,seriously!
DeleteI like Turtles............and now rocks aswell.
ReplyDeleteGood lord some of the posts are just well you know ............
ReplyDeleteNo I don't know.Funny maybe?
