I believe in 2 "conspiracy" theories.
One is that Oswald did not act alone and the other is that artificial structures have been photographed on Mars.

Enhance...enhance...enhance.

Yea, really NASA, why not drive the rover over there for a closer look?. Possible it was taken when these rover's capabilities were fading and it lacked power to get over there, for a planned 90 day lifespan they outperformed their lifespan by multitudes...

It's comet debri. It says so in the first comments. Looks cool and kind of freaky though. I'm sure they will investigate more and get closer.

I thought that too but a comet would be traveling extremely fast at impact, I can't see how over 50% of it remained intact unless it's a piece from a much bigger impact from nearby..

The rock on the left looks the same only smaller. I'd like to see some closer shots. interesting how it survived like that.

LOL, I was 9 when I first saw that movie, it scared the bejesus out of me, still a great Sci-fi film to this day, it won Oscar awards for special effects...

That movie is still awesome for the day. I saw part of it a year or so ago. I can't believe how good it was. I wish I could finish watching it. Can't find it on netflix or any place.

As already pointed out, it looks just like another more prominent rock in the photo.

It just looks weird because of the distance and the fact that your brain wants to think it's a bush or something. But it's just a porous rock with the camera/lighting combo making it look funny. That part at the topp that looks kinda disconnected, as if it were foliage, is actually just a dark spot in a surface that's blending with the background.

But look at the tilt of the horizon. Go watch Batman and come back and tell me there isn't something sinister up there..

That's weird if I put on my polarized sunglasses the rock has OBEY written on it.

Bah these glasses are defective. I'm throwing them away. Also I'm rather sleepy. Night folks.
