Hey guys!
Here's something interesting I found in an Opportunity image. Looks like a head from a broken statue!

Have you noticed the hair style? And the guy's nostrils? Resembles Kirk Douglas, what? :o

I've seen that before somewhere quite recently, doesnt it remind you of old medieaval woodcuts of kings or better still, the picture of the king card in a pack of playing cards?I see your in full swing here Mike and making yourself at home, seen a lot of stuff being authored by you the past couple of days, making up for lost time mate? Your just bursting to get loads of stuff out aint yeh? Its all good though, I really do need some food for thought, been going a bit stale as of late... My brain needs a good work out instead of my muscles!!
;D
ah mikeshingh..wish i had your computer skills..
i am enjoying your pics already
so i see the face in your rock and show you two in a tree

IT IS a head!!! (http://smileys.on-my-web.com/repository/Confused/confused-18.gif)
Cheers! :)
;D
and i just said faces..lol
i was not trying to mess with ya..just kinda sayin faces are everywhere....
one in a rock and two in a tree
could you see them?
i'm don't have the skills to go thur all the space shots and pull stuff out..
so i only have earthbound images..
but i see things differly than most
so i really am enjoying your pics (so far ..dang can't get the smilies to move..sigh)
and i got the impression you had a good sense of humor
so that's where i was going with it
:)
That reminds me of early Greek style art...
(I'm a sculptor, so I see faces etc in all kinds of different things too.)
Check this one out...

But on a serious note, if there was activity up there in the past, i.e. Mars was being used as a jumping platform to the rest of the Solar System by other worldly lifeforms, no matter how long ago, then I'm not surprised that these things keep popping up and disapearing, if we as humans went elsewhere we are gonna want to leave our mark, just like them up there, and with all the dust devils and stuff strewing across Mars's landscape all the time then this stuff is going to be constantly covered up and exposed I suppose, not saying I believe it, not saying I dont but I have an open mind and I've also watched ALT3 which definately gave me food for thought even though it's only fictional, the BBC said that ALT3 was made as an april fools prank, well there's an old saying that goes "many a truth is spoken in jest"... just my 2 pence. ;)
I agree with what Darren says. Here's another what looks like a statue on a rock face on Mars posted earlier on thelivingmoon....

That looks quite similar to the Egyptian statues of the Pharaohs at Abydos I think it is, with the headress and the beard platted, except for the head, it looks like the head is bulbous doesnt it? but then the Egyptians where known for trepanning their infants, maybe a link between that statues in your pic Mike and ancient Egypt, but then its probably just a touch of paradolia (I think I've spelt that right)

Perhaps the most amazing suppression of all is the excavation of an Egyptian tomb by the Smithsonian itself in Arizona. A lengthy front page story of the Phoenix Gazette on April 5, 1909, gave a highly detailed report of the discovery and excavation of a rock-cut vault by an expedition led by a Professor S.A. Jordan of the Smithsonian. The Smithsonian, however, claims to have absolutely no knowledge of the discovery or its discoverers.
Front page of The Phoenix Gazette of April 5th, 1909 see link
(http://i45.servimg.com/u/f45/13/55/53/83/grandc10.jpg)
The tomb or crypt in which the mummies were found is one of the largest of the chambers, the walls slanting back at an angle of about 35 degrees. On these are tiers of mummies, each one occupying a separate hewn shelf. At the head of each is a small bench, on which is found copper cups and pieces of broken swords. Some of the mummies are covered with clay and all are wrapped in a bark fabric
it seems that they like caves and stone places
(http://i45.servimg.com/u/f45/13/55/53/83/grandc11.jpg)
and even more in addition to the egypt like forms is this
(http://i45.servimg.com/u/f45/13/55/53/83/grandc12.jpg)
Over a hundred feet from the entrance is the cross-hall, several hundred feet long, in which are found the idol, or image, of the people's god, sitting cross-legged, with a lotus flower or lily in each hand. The cast of the face is oriental. The idol almost resembles Buddha, though the scientists are not certain as to what religious worship it represents. Taking into consideration everything found thus far, it is possible that this worship most resembles the ancient people of Tibet.
do you think this and the mars and moon and who knows how many other planets artifacts will be found on are all from the same space travelers?
???
if ya want to know more and how they figure the egyptians were from the hopi..just do a search on
lost cave in the grand caynon
oh yeah..and how very interesting that the roswell crash was pretty close to these caves
well..that is if you allow for better gps deivices and some geographical changes thur the millemium for returning (??) entities
it's really all connected..in my opinion, of course

INDUBITABLY!!!!!
There's definately a link there somewhere, I've always been of the idea that at different times in history when important things have happened and we have made big leaps forward in culture and tech' that a lot of it (not all of it, we have to give some credit to the human race for some leaps and discoveries) has been due to help from other intelligent species, and that they have been mooching around other rocky planets in the solar system as bases and jumping platforms, maybe as a view to experimentation on said planets and outposts to keep an eye on us. Are they still up there? Well I dont know, I cant answer that but I have a strong gut feeling (and everyone I have known always say go with your gut, intuition kicking in I suppose...) but I;ve seen to much evidence in reports from astronauts and pictures of dodgy looking stuff on of world territories in our solar system, and also the apparent secret transmission between NASA and the first moon landing, which tells me, and all points toward the fact that yes... something's still in our neighbourhood keeping tabs!!
What does everyone else think? Anyone with me on this?

My Government has stated over and over and over again that they've had No contact with intelligent life on other planets or evidence there-of.
Hold on - lemme get out my Government to Civillian translator...
So that translates to - There is ALOT of intelligent life on other planets and we have TONS of evidence and have been in communication with them for a long time. lol ;D
QuoteThe one rare bit of information in it is that the Smithsonian building was commissioned and built to house the artifacts that were to be brought back from an expedition to the North Pole. Presumably, not to house lots of ice cubes. This is no small piece of evidence, and yet again, for a major coverup involving the elite-funded Smithsonian. This in itself is worth an entire article. The Smithsonian has allegedly dumped truckloads of secretly stored "Out Of Place Artifacts" (ooparts) into the Atlantic. Yes, getting rid of evidence would be a good guess. Shall we get into their involvement with the excavations in the Grand Canyon in 1909 and how everything about this incredible find went dead? Probably not yet.
http://www.viewzone.com/hollowearth33.html (http://www.viewzone.com/hollowearth33.html)
Strange, isn't it, how the Smithsonian was originally built to house the artifacts from an expedition to the North Pole to find the entrance to a Hollow Earth!
Funny how their own history seems to neglect this fact! ???
QuoteThe Smithsonian Office of Protection Services oversees security at the Smithsonian facilities. The Secretary of the Smithsonian may designate employees to have Special Police Status to enforce regulations within the Smithsonian facilities and grounds as well as areas of the National Capital Parks in D.C.
According to 40 U.S.C. § 6306
, Smithsonian staff who are designated as Special police have arrest authority within the Smithsonian buildings and grounds, and may enforce laws and regulations for National Capital Parks together with the United States Park Police.
The Office of Protection Services has three main positions within the division, all of which are U.S. government positions:[citation needed]

No wonder artifacts can mysteriously
Disappear! >:(
The Smithsoniam, the Rockefeller Institute, and similar groups are all knee deep in the web of lies that keep the people from advancing ty-ing in with all the big corporate suppression machine. They wont share or disclose any discoveries/information with the public, and this world is run by big business as money makes the world go round. Do you really think they hav'nt found a cure for AIDS yet? Do you really think they hav'nt got free renewable energy yet? If they released the cure for AIDS then they would only make money of the cure, and not the 200+ tablets that full blown AIDS victims use per day, if they release free energy then all the oil companies go bust, all the subsidiaries go bust, petrol stations, transporters etc. Big business is what runs the world, as I said, and it ties in with people like the Smithsonian and The Rokefeller tribe as they are run like corporate business is well, its all about whats good for the people in the know, its just like that old saying that goes "do as I say, not as I do!" dont you think? If its not cost effective and good for the people behind the curtains, then its basically a case of "F**K the people, why should we care about them? let them suffer!"
As for them having their own policing, thats new news to me, they say you learn something new every day, but it does'nt really surprise me all that much though...

I'll show you some 'evidence' that you'd like to see. Now we know that the first rover on the Moon was the Soviet Lunokhod that was the first roving remote-controlled robot to land on another celestial body in
1970.
That said here's a pic taken by the Lunar Orbiter which acquired photographic data from August 18–29,
1966, and readout occurred through September 14, 1966. I found this by chance whilst poring over Prof Robinson's Moon album and scouring the areas in zoom mode for hours. NASA wouldn't have been able to find this stuff. Too much effort and time! (If they could it probably would have been brushed out by now!!)
So who or how were these parallel tracks made?

Hello Miksingh! My first post here. I am looking forward to joining in the discussions and postings.
The "head of the statue" in the OP I too have seen before in a Rover photo. Actually, I have also seen it in a photo from the side which is about opposite this view. What one can see in that photo are two more "faces" carved in stone. So, there are actually three faces there instead of one.
Having three together like this kinda takes away the question of authenticity, while raising the question of why are these faces here.
One slight problem, I don't have that opposite photo handy, and will have to go back to the Rover site and find it again - then i will post it.

Hey Mike, I too have see this before, and in my opinion, it is a really neat anomaly. It has gotten a lot of discussion when posted. To me, there is nothing natural here at all. I believe this is at Victoria Crater, and is a part of Cape St. Vincent. When you look at the entire area, there are several other anomalous items. I will post a link here, to Cape St. Vincent so all who are interested can take a look at it too.
http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/207023main_vincent-20071220.jpg
Of course, you will need to magnify/zoom in a little to see better detail.
Just to add an example of the size. (I used more or less the measurements Internos posted on ATS)
QuoteThe cliff in this image from Opportunity's panoramic camera (Pancam) is informally named Cape St. Vincent. It is a promontory approximately 12 meters (39 feet) tall on the northern rim of Victoria crater, near the farthest point along the rover's traverse around the rim.
Well, of course I dont know how to measure the 12 meters correctly and the scale is not exactly right, but it gives an idea of that size.
(http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/8169/80462126zn3.jpg)
This statue would be rather small looking at this example. My feeling says its bigger. But certainly not like 10 meters tall? 8)

i find language so diverse most of the time
you know...........PA-ta-Toe.......Pa-TAT-O..............same/different sounding..lol
so do tell.... ;D
Yes Lunica, tthe cliff od tge Cape does look taller than 12 meters, to me to. But, then there just is no other know reference in the photo, so. wjatever tall that little Egyptian-looking statue is, is fine with me.
There is another statue at this Cape. I found it on my own, and have never mentioned it, or posted it. Months ago, I was reading through the long thread on this subject, and a guy excitedly posted that he had just joined so he could mention this other statue, and made a description about where it was. (it was the same as I had found) I don't think anyone replied to him on it.
I you want to see it, it is near the top of the cliff, above the Egyptian, and toward us a little. It is a sculpted man, with a very fat belly, sitting in a chair. Part of the pic appears to be messed with, but, if you look, with magnification you can see him. Quite a different thing!!

Hi rd; I have scrutinized the image and can't seem to spot your fat man in the chair; could you post a high-lighted (circle, arrow, etc.) so I will know the area in question?
My humble opinion is there are indeed many artifacts on the red planet that we just aren't allowed to know about... I'm still wondering who dusted off the solar panels on the rover. ;D

Hey seeker, it is not the best statue ever anyway! I will post a screenshot for you and everyone, maybe to help you find it in the full pic. as I said, it does look like it has been messed with. While it is on the side of the cliff, it pretty much blends in with the cliff.

Thanks seeker, I am glad you found it! As I said, anomalies are just all over this area.
I will post a screenshot of another anomaly here, that is just a little way to the left of this fat-man statue. It is a large and very visible number "2". I shows up "clear as day". Now, just why, or how, does a numerical #2 show up on the face of the Mars Victoria Crater cliffside?? Does that fact strike anyone else here as being a bit strange, especially in view of what is portrayed to us, and the world, by NASA??? Certainly, numbers we recognize don't just materialize out of thin air!!!
Well, you can also find this #2 in the full photo of the cliff, magnified. I will post that link again here also, for the convenience of everyone.

Interesting picture Mike
There is more than one set of "tracks" in it if you download the tif and view. The other set further down the image appear to descend over the edge of the crater itself... And others just appear/disappear on the surface.
They also appear to continue across some small craters, sort of ruling out a direct-impact-path-gouge by an incoming low angle meteor...
We must also consider pressure and fault lines from surface impacts and movement.
The photo is from approx 50km up...
PP Latitude -0.8
PP Longitude 24.3
Corrected Resolution (meters) 0.8
Altitude (km) 49.9
Incidence Angle 67
Emission Angle 23
its worth a second look...

There's only one thing that makes it look like a statue, if we remove that area it looks like some rocks (at least to me, but that doesn't mean much, as those that know me already know :D)

Hello, ArMaP! Well one thing you are right about is, yes, there is a whole cliffside full of "rocks". Big rocks, little rocks, and every size in between. One thing for sure, there are a lot of rocks.
One thing for sure though, we can't "remove any of them", anomalies or not. Every anomaly and rock gets to stay where it is, no matter our feelings toward what we actually see in the photos. :)
Sometimes i wonder if "location" might be a a strong directional force for what we see, or admit to seeing, like on Mars. If the "statue anomaly" posted here, was presented as a photo taken on Earth, in Egypt, I wonder if there would be anyone who would question its authenticity, or its statuesqueness.
But, with it being presented, and clearly seen in a photo from the Mars Rover, well now, that makes it become a "whole nuther discussion"! And on Mars, some see it for what it is, and some just cannot see it (or admit to seeing it) as a "statue", prepared by some form of intelligent design.
And, for whatever reason, I guess that is pretty much the way things like this will remain, until we people from Earth can get on the ground of Mars, to see for ourselves. (or our government tells everyone the truth of the matter)
ArMaP, yes, there are numerous anomalies shown in this photo, that portray intelligent design and intervention. Did you see the fancy number "2" anomaly I posted in reply on Feb. 5? This number 2 is just sitting there in the pic, plain as day. I didn't even put a ring around it in the pic, it is so easy to see.
And there are other anomalies on this cliffside, that could also be posted and discussed.

I was not talking about "removing any of them", what I said was "remove that area", meaning removing it from the photo.
I said that because the top of the "head" of the "statue", if we remove or hide the area below it, we can see that it looks like the rock to the right (from out point of view), only more eroded.
Also, if we look just at the "face" area we can also see that the rock to the right is not that different, that particular piece is more eroded, just that.
The area that is most different from the rest is that flat area (the "body"), but looking at the way those rocks break, I don't see anything unusual with it.

I have seen many people say that, and some even tried to post photos from different places, my opinion is never affected by the surroundings or by the supposed place where the photo was taken. :)

A number 2 is hardly something that can only be explained as an artificial shape.
Quote ArMaP: "A number 2 is hardly something that can only be explained as an artificial shape".

That is possible, but can you tell us how you might try to "explain" the "natural existence" of this very fancy #2 in a high quality photo of this Martian cliffside. I will post another screenshot for you, and I will even put a ring around it, so you, and everyone, can easily find it in the rocks.
Thanks!

I don't think the "2" exists as such, to me it looks made from two different objects that appear like a "2" only when seen from this position.
I think that all the photos that show this area were taken from the same position, if we can find a photo from a different position it will show if it's a matter of perspective or not. :)

Actually Amp, if you look closely, what makes it possibly look like "two" pieces to you, may be the fact that a rock pretty much hides the bottom horizontal part of the figure "2". I don't know if you saw it that way or not, but that is the way i see it. You can just see the point of the rock covering that part of the view of the "2".
As I have already said, to me, it is just a fancy two, and a "white one" at that!. Yes, another photo can always give us more confidence in what we think we see, but thus far, this is the only photo I have found of the "2". Most of the photos of this Cape seem to have been taken from the crater rim, looking at the cape from a leftward angle, toward our right in the photo.
I still am going to continue looking for a better pic, even though I am satisfied that it is a numerical "2", as we know it, on Earth.

I'm satisfied that it looks like a numerical 2 on that picture. ArMaP's right though, the bottom horizontal line is likely the top of another object and not part of the rest of the 2.
if you find another picture of the object, from a different perspective, you will probably be able to see better to decide for sure. In the meantime I'd say it might be a 2 but is most likely an optical illusion.
Sorry rdunk.

Hey Pimander - absolutely nothing to be sorry about!! You said, "I'm satisfied that it looks like a numerical 2 on that picture". We always appreciate the comments and interaction. While we may not agree on some of the specifics, we each can add to and compliment the details of the discussion.
I do think that if you look closely at the screenshot, you too can see the rock that is in front of, and below, the "2". The side of that rock, facing us in the photo, is triangular shaped. The pic is clear enough to see the "triangle". And you can see that the upper point of the triangle rock does cover most of the horizontal leg of the "2". That is why the horizontal leg of the "2" is a different color, rather that white.
While optical illusions are always possible with some features and pics, you have to admit a numerical "2" is pretty common, and is a recognizable feature for almost everyone.
And yes, it does seem out of place on the side of that cliff, but so do numerous other things there, besides the "two" large statues. It really is just another place on Mars, that displays in the photos, definite specific objects of intelligent civilized design activities.
I am going to attach another screenshot of the "2", with "added lines", that will help everyone locate and see the view blocking triangle shaped rock, in front of the "2", I hope this helps!
Optical illusion or not, looks like a 2.
I like it. :)

Thanks for the comment Russo! With these anomalies, it always helps to know when others are at least seeing what the poster has proffered.
Do you have any thoughts about just how that "2", on the side of a cliff of Victoria Crater, on the planet Mars, might have gotten there??? It seems to look more out of place there, than does the "Egyptian-looking statue", just down below the "2". Very odd "cliff buddies", that "2" and the "statue"! ;)
Well, my answer to that question is, "somebody done it"!! Yes, "somebody"!! "Who done it" would be left an open question.
Why in the world can't NASA just say/admit, "yes, there are signs and features of intelligent life on Mars, past, existing, or transient"??? A really big deal, but not a big deal to just say it!

I think its because this is THE card that they plan to play in a very specific time with a well planed game. A game they are architecting and playing for decades.
Furthermore, We should keep in mind that there are many interests at stake. Many institutions depends on the ignorance of people. I think religion is one good example.
About how that was "put" there, I cant say. As I said before that could be a manufactured simbol. But could be just a simple optical illusion. This does not mean you're wrong or right. This mean you could be right. There is no way to say this without having pictures with better resolution.
Remember this: The truth is the daughter of time. ;)
