Mars, which seems to be a vital hotspot for alien seekers in outer space, recently disclosed a piece of a "crashed, abandoned spaceship or machine". An unusual, hieroglyph-style pattern of writing was deciphered on it, through an image.
The shot had been captured and beamed back by Curiosity Rover, a four-wheel-drive droid, on the Red Planet. But it was the YouTube user UFOMania who examined it and said that it seems to be a metallic-looking part of a spacecraft that "smashed" on Mars. Or it could be an "abandoned or non-functional vehicle or part of a machine."
Scott C. Waring, a UFO seeker, said that it was a "great discovery," and that "It shows a deliberately carved formation that has squares and frames around them. The carvings look like words written in order, from a language we won't know for thousands of years."
Of course, there are the usual number of skeptics who turned down the theory that it could be an alien ship. They called the "strange object" just an "interesting rock." On the other hand, the UFO promoters are firm about their finding. Hence, the debate over unidentified objects follows the usual yo-yo pattern.
Just a few weeks earlier, on August 24, Waring had pointed to another strange finding----that of a "lost shoe" on Mars. The shoe was described by Waring as the remnant of a Martian soldier, who died in an ancient battle!
Waring described in his blog, UFOSightingsDaily: "Whilst looking through some Mars Rover photos, I found a lone shoe at the edge of a crater. This is probably a shoe of a species that were at war a long time ago, the shoe being the lone evidence that the person had ever existed. How many times on a battlefield or catastrophic event have we seen photos in the newspapers of the shoes of the victims?
"Evidence of how hard they were hit, how fast they were taken from us. Well, this is such evidence."
That image had been shot by the Opportunity Rover in 2013, though it was deciphered only recently. Still, how believable are the sightings?
NASA countered that there is "no evidence of even microscopic life ever being on Mars" and UFO enthusiasts are only suffering from "pareidolia - an optical illusion when the brain tricks the eyes into seeing familiar shapes or objects, such as faces, in patterns and textures like a rocky surface."
However, Waring is particular that the rover has given a "wealth of evidence" about an advanced civilisation that once existed on the planet. Just one piece of abandoned spacecraft, or machine, then, has stirred a lot of debate that follows predictable lines. Yet, the debate does not look like it's going to die down.
Does the volume of findings in itself indicate something?
