> UFO found on mars by new Mars lander? >

I predict a slew of new websites will spring up managed by a eager bunch of self-proclaimed interplanetary-archeologists who will present all sorts of interesting objects found primarily in Martian bedrock. We will see endless photos pointing to rocks possessing suggestive shapes - the result of light and shade from a particular time of day. and always, always right at the edge of the resolution limits of Curiosities' imaging capabilities. It happened when Spirit and Opportunity were roaming about. It will happen with Curiosity. Humans are very good a filling in the dots. I suspect the ability to interpret (and particularly to extrapolate) one's immediate surroundings was probably a very good survival trait in which to pass on from generation to generation. When one is peering through thick foliage and wondering if those odd looking black and orange vertical strips might belong to a tiger, or not. your progeny will thank you, if you're lucky enuf to have any. Of course, maybe, just maybe some of Curiosities' photos really will show us slew of fossilized sea shells! Now wouldn't that be fun! As Freud once said: Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
