NASA Photo Shows Humanoid Figure on Mars

"....Is it Bigfoot? A Tusken Raider from the first “Star Wars” movie? Or just a rock? British newspapers went crazy Wednesday morning about an image from Mars that appears to show a humanoid figure descending a shallow hillside. The “alien” is actually a blurry detail in a huge panoramic photograph snapped on the edge of Mars’ Gusev crater by NASA’s Spirit rover in early November, and posted on NASA’s Web site on Jan. 2. Naturally, it took the Photoshop skills of dedicated bloggers to find the “humanoid.” “NASA scientists have been puzzled by the peculiarly life-like image,” declared the Times of London, despite the apparent fact that no one from NASA has had any comment. The skeptical Web site BadAstronomy.com, however, scoffed, “Puhlllleeeeze. A man? It’s a tiny rock only a few inches high. It’s only a few feet from the rover!”

I would think that another pic from a different angle would clarify if it is just an illusion created by the rock/ shadow.?

I imagine this is just the latest "jesus on a piece of toast".....interesting, though.

E-Man would go "Ape-shit" over that one!

Now you know where the upright-walking Martian porccupines came from.

I was thinking two rocks, the larger irregular one in the foreground and a smaller more rounded rock behind it with a dark patch of dirt or shadow where the apparent hand would be.
