I just woke up this morning and found this article to be really interesting. I have been following the progress of the two mars rovers, Spirit and Opportunity since they’ve landed in 2004. I wonder if they will be able to investigate this odd shape closer?
Very cool….
An image of a mysterious shape on the surface of Mars, taken by Nasa spacecraft Spirit, has reignited the debate about life on the Red Planet.
A magnified version of the picture, posted on the internet, appears to some to show what resembles a human form among a crop of rocks.

While some bloggers have dismissed the image as a trick of light, others say it is evidence of an alien presence.
The image is a recent Nasa posting of the Spirit’s landing in 2004.
