A strange alien figure on Mars? Yeah, right, says NASA.
As reported Wednesday, bloggers and British newspapers have been abuzz this week over a blurry image taken by the Mars rover Spirit in November that seems to show a humanoid figure ambling down a shallow slope.
"It's a piece of rock eroded by the wind," explained NASA spokesman Dwayne Brown.
"No one on the Mars Rover team is puzzled or surprised by the rock," he said. "I can guarantee you that if [the alien theory] had any validity, we would would have a major press conference. Besides, anything this absolutely hideous could only be a random work of nature."
