It could be the top of a Prothean building, remember Illos and Eden Prime? The Prothean buildings were very square.
Mars is famous for massive sand storms, so there is something down there.

You guys want to see something strange? George Bush Sr. & NASA had this poster made as part of their space initiative in... 1990 I believe. Puzzling, to say the least.

If I remember correctly Hoagland is one of those "ancient alien civilisation on mars" nutjobs. It's not that farfetched that a bush would hire him. :D 





Don't get my pessimism wrong.

I think theres a very good chance there's life, including intelligent life, elsewhere in the universe. I find it somewhat less likely that life had been road trippin to Mars (our back yard) but I still think we should go there.

I think we should strive for mankind on 2 worlds just as much as Nike shoes for everyone.

Would've been more fun if yahoo linked to Nasa's website for the photo.

Oh and I think it's a wall-less door :P

Perhaps someone at BW is gifted with prophetic abilities? Not so long ago I heard one of the leading mars experts say that we may be able to get to mars within 50 years or so


We can get there now. However, whomever did would return with massive muscle and bone atrophy from the lack of gravity, and there's no profit to be had in it to risk the trip and take the time, and then there's the mental stress of spending years on a ship with no capacity to even get out on deck and take in some sun and surf.

Well if it is prothean and we find it and it all plays out just like the mass effect series. That would be a horrible way to end this galaxy wouldnt?

I dunno, are we advanced enough for harvesting yet?

Those are not unsurmountable problems though.

There's also the suggestion of making it a one way trip.

Better to wait 200-300 years, till reapers come and gone and after we shall become rulers of the galaxy, no council etc.

I'm of the belief that there is other life in the universe. With the many stars and the odds of those stars having planets orbiting them, I just can't see us being the only sentient creatures in the entirety of space. Whether it's bipedal water drinkers like ourselves, or quarapedal methane drinkers. In our lifetimes we'll never know whether or not we are definitely alone but i'll die with the belief that somewhere, there is some freaky looking alien thinking the same as me...there is other life out there.

I guess it's not magnified enough to see all the ape-men dancing around it.

oh, that is interesting. Although, the article poo-pooed the idea that it was anything other than a mundane, natural feature.

Yet, this keeps happening. Mars seems to have alot of very strange mundane natural features.

The research tech said something about it only looks rectangular because of the low resolution of the image. Pixels and stuff make it look more sharp edged.

But I mean, if it was some extremely ancient...thing..I would imagine it'd be pretty worn down by now anyway.

They said it was prolly a boulder that broke off and fell to that spot. But, it's very rectangular-y for a boulder. And it landed perfectly straight up. Yeah, it could happen, but--hmmm.

I do hope we get to Mars soon. I hope we master some new energy source that can speed up the journey significantly.

That would be an amazing moment.


You've heard of the so-called "Face on Cydonia"?

Yeah, it only looked like a face because of the image resolution. When we got a much sharper picture of it, it turned out to be a completely unremarkable big lump of rock. This is the same situation.


yeah...and that's why i'm disappointed.

although, honestly, idk how good any ruins would look after potentially millions of years. they would all pretty much look like a big lump of rocks.

Bah. Nobody wants to come to Earth. I'm beginning to think we're like the prison planet of the cosmos. The place where they house all the idiots.

Nobody comes here unless they made a wrong turn

Since we're on the subject of 'Artifacts on Mars', the UFO issue is definitely related. If you've got 10 minutes to spare, historian Richard Dolan put together an excellent short highlighting some of the most legitimate memos & cases that exist. The editing's a little hokey, but the data is excellent-

Yup, this can only be a Prothean beacon. It's obvious.

There have been many such claims of structures on Mars, which, thus far, when investigated and probed with better resolution images or from other angles are revealed to be natural features, or to have been artefacts of the photography method itself, so I'm not holding my breath.

It'd be the most awesome news EVER, if an actual alien artifact was found on Mars (or anywhere else), but as a skeptic, I value truth over what I'd like to be true, and try not to let my exitement over an idea overestimate evidence for that idea.

We humans are excellent at pareidolia, where we see familiar patterns in random visual or auditory stimulus, whether it be Jesus in our toast, or the "face" on mars. When something looks, in a photograph, like something rather unlikely and unexpected, like a purposefully built structure on the surface of another planet, you REALLY need to have more than just one or two photographs of indeterminate quality; you need a closer examination.

Until you have that closer examination, our eagerness to see such a thing coupled with our very human psycholgical features and failings, is a much more likely explanation for a photographic oddity than that oddity being an actual extraterrestrial structure.

But of course I'd love nothing better than to actually read about a real, confirmed discovery of something built by an extraterrestrial intelligence; just the discovery of bacteria level life on Mars would make my year. Discovery of an alien artefact would be mind-blowingly awesome.

:mellow:
I bet that if they did find one, they would keep it secret and cover it up.:ph34r:  We would never be allowed to know.:o

I doubt its anything worth thinking too hard about, but if on the off chance it was anything resembling a Prothean beacon, I think it would prove that BioWare clearly has been indoctrinated :P

OMG this reminded me of "The Last Starfighter", so Mass Effect series is just an elaborate simulation to find a human candidate for the N7 program, I knew it!!!

LOL Actually "Stargate: Universe" did exactly the same thing (Make a game & monitor it surreptitiously) in the opening of the show, to recruit one of the main characters. :lol:


I have a lot of fondness for "The Last Starfighter". Deeply flawed, but still entertaining. Apparently from what I've read, the filmmakers could have made the CGI even better, but were rushed by their Producer/Distributor to get the film out. Hmm... maybe this is more relevant to ME3 than we thought.

It really is, slyguy200. Rich Dolan's not some tin-foil hat kook, he's a sober-minded historian who got involved in the UFO issue quite by accident.
