Egyptians On Mars
Some sharp-eyed observer of the images from Mars rover Opportunity (now in it’s 1528th day of exploration) saw something that looked like a…well here’s the original image:
Look closely at the right side of the outcropping, about halfway down:
Sort of looks like a bas-relief of an Egyptian pharaoh, doesn’t it? How long before Richard Hoagland gets a hold of this one?
It also reminds me of this famous image, reportedly of a captured alien in the hands of the U.S. (or perhaps Nazi) Government:
Those with a creative bent could go nuts with this stuff, which is what makes it fun. Thanks to Leslie at the Debris Field for the heads-up. More info at the strangely-named “Skywatcher Uncover The UFOs Truth.”

Well, if we wanna play that game, I have found at least two other “faces” on those ridges. One is near the edge at the right and seems to wear an Old_kingdom crown, the ohter is more in the middle an it shows the face in profile.
I’m very good a this you know—finding patterns and figures in clouds, marble tiles and such. One of my favorite pastimes when I’m in the throne myself, if you catch my drift

There are supposed to be pyramid-like structures, close to the famous “face” on Mars (or the trick of “light & shadow” as it has been alternatively labelled). So, if the ancient pharaohs built the pyramids in Egypt, is it really surprising to find evidence of them having been on Mars? Much more plausible than bigfoot on Mars anyway.
I guess we need to bring in the Egyptologists now, to give an expert opinion on which specific pharaoh is represented on this Martian outcrop…

It’s obvious that the “alien in the hands of gov’t officials photo” is a shot from a David Lynch movie.

Except that photo dates from well before Lynch began his film career, if
mamory serves.
It does look a little like the figures
at Abu Simbu, and what appears to be
another niche slightly above and behind
it is obscured by the rock face.
Still, while I can accept Heyrdahl’s
notion that the Egyptians could have crossed the Atlantic in reed boats, I
have my doubts about their crossing
interplanetary space…but after seeing
Richard Hoagland on last night’s Mysteries of the Crystal Skull
I’m uncertain…his hair is certainly
not of this world!!!

We can’t *not* see faces in the chaos because we’re hard wired to do so for survival.
There’s nothing like good old fashioned racism, i.e.; “they” (take your pick) couldn’t have come up with “it” (take your pick) on their own so aliens must have helped them.
There is a great image of a black, frozen lake or something on Mars that is very intriguing though.

Mars has become one planetary Roschach test

Gee and I thought that alien was hand and hand with the russians. Then out of the blue now the nazi’s are the ones with the aliens’ that don’t exist. It’s no wonder the truth will never be taken seriously.
