A few days ago my friend Daniel wrote about the Man on Mars image, well it seems as if this has sparked people’s imagination alight as everyone seems to have a view on this. It is so funny when you read through what people have been saying on the net about this.
I for one have a very open view on life out there, but I have to say that the Man on Mars image is not an alien of any sort. Many people have said that it is in fact a deformed rock and I would have to agree.
However some do believe that it is a shadow of when the picture was taken, however people do start to go stupid and say that it could be Bigfoot. The thing is if it was an alien where is it getting its food and drink source from.

Well, perhaps it doesn’t require any nourishment of that sort.
In all seriousness though, its most likely an opticle illusion.
Well, if it were real, why would you assume it would need to drink water or liquids? after all it is an alien life form and could probably drink another source of nursiment, perhaps sand, Or perhaps there is a source of underground water on mars (since scientist do believe that there once was water on the red planet)
Hi, Let me first say that I find it very interesting to think that there would be life on mars but if you take a good close look at the picture where it seems to be a right arm raised and then follow the rock formation away and slightly upward toward the right from the let’s say the raised hand you can see the edge of the entire rocks formation. What it actually looks like is the corrosion of a rock that was hallowed out by either wind or some other weather pattern. If you look to the left you can see similar rock formations that are not as pronounces to represent an understandable image. All you need to do is follow and focus on the outside rock formation without focusing on the darker shaded portion and you can clearly see the rock by which this intriguing image is presented. Hense we has a bonafide outstanding optical allusion produced by rock and shade that presents itself as a human or otherwise recognizable object. I honestly am disapointed because I hoped that it was otherwise.
OK heres my opinion, I would say that it is not a rock because of alot of reasons. First that specific “ROCK” you guys call is alot darker then the others around it. And none of the other rocks have multi colors like the top one.It has a little red,tan, and black on it. I would have to agree with all the other people that it is not a rock it is some kind of life on mars!

Would You Not have thoughtt tjat the people taking this picture - would have ventued closer to see if it moved or anything -
i think it was something to do with something obstructing the view of the camera although there is a sightly red tint to the ‘Head’ xx
well i think it looks like a photo
i think it is an alien because i do believe in that sort of stuff. But then i sort of think it looks like a man walking and he could of been turned to stone so if you say it is a rock or stone it could be.
Hey what if it is a sculpture that an ancient civilation left behind just like on earth when man is gone there will be artifacts left behind for thousands of years seems like it deserves a closer look!
Isn’t that Bigfoot? LOL
It’s not an alien or a rock. It’s the astrological sign for Aquarius.
