Alien Life on Mars?
Rhawn Joseph is taking legal action on the basis that NASA isn't doing enough to investigate alien life. The author and researcher has filed the unusual lawsuit because he doesn't believe that NASA is doing everything possible to investigate potential signs of extraterrestrial life on Mars. Joseph's main argument centers around the recent photographs taken by the Opportunity rover that show a strange rock appearing on the ground between shots. At the time, NASA scientists concluded that the rock had been kicked in to frame by the rover's wheels, but Joseph maintains that there is something more to it and believes NASA should have conducted a more thorough investigation.

Nothing else appeared to move, but the rock?

I think part of our problem with "finding life" is the expectation in looking for a deal of "It has to be similar to humans". I mean we are looking for planets that mimic this one (but won't because they're in a different place with different things involved in their creation and growth). That in itself shows a level of expectation that everything should mimic the basic idea for life here. I feel that's probably the thing that's also limiting our ability to find it. We're not thinking it'll come in any form as much as we should.
Meanwhile we have things like archeo bacteria (it can survive in harsh environments like geysers) and even sulfur based life in our ocean depths. Living rocks also sorta does work. We have those same beds in Australia (I'm damn sure it's in "Oz") which are basically really low level collective organism colonies. |

Nothing else appeared to move, but the rock? weird... the round ring the rock is sitting on was undisturbed also... maybe it's an alien playing jokes on NASA... |

Maybe the whole planet is alive, and is mimicking its understanding of other life forms. . |

Did NASA solve Mars rock mystery?
Now NASA scientists have conclusively identified the rock as just that, a rock, and believe that it was flung in to the frame of the photograph by the rover's wheels. "Once we moved Opportunity a short distance, after inspecting Pinnacle Island, we could see directly uphill an overturned rock that has the same unusual appearance," said Opportunity Deputy Principal Investigator Ray Arvidson. "We drove over it. We can see the track. That's where Pinnacle Island came from." Link: http://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/news/262417/nasa-solves-mars-rock-mystery |
