Ever seen a dried up river bed? I've seen a dried up creek bed instead. Well, not quite dry, but very very shallow at one point. The bed had broken up into square-like shapes that could fool one into thinking they'd been chiseled that way. (See discussion of the "Bimini Road" and it's supposed connection to Atlantis.) But no, I have not seen something like what's in the pix posted here ... so far as I can recall. Capitalize on this good fortune, one word can bring you round ... changes. |

Ever seen a dried up river bed? I have. Manganese can also form into pellets like this too, as can many other minerals. Calm Chaos Forum...Join Calm Chaos Now |

Ever seen a dried up river bed? Better image. From: Opportunity :: Panoramic Camera :: Sol 1175 Here is one in a crack (this is a crack going along a wall, NOT along the ground like the above).

A new one from May 17, 2007. NASA says this is "mineral deposits." IMHO, They are nuts. "By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible". Hebrews 11.3 |

...IMHO, They are nuts... Sorry, extremely unlikely. They look just like mineral spherules. Completely natural formation, and also confirmed by spectral analysis by the Mars Rovers.

See http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap040405.html Well That seems unlikely. Hematite in water? in beads? the water would flatten and be absorbed by the rocks/sand. And the berries would be more numerous and not a few here and there on a rock.

Unknown, but we will soon known what it is. What you see is Opportunity Rover on Mars getting a physical sample of the mysterious rock and the formation on it. Raw image Presumably from May 17 or 18, 2007. Yet to be reviewed by a NASA scientist.

The blueberries were tested by Opportunity in 2004 http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn4790 |

The blueberries were tested by Opportunity in 2004 http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn4790 So here is a question. If it is from water, then why has this not been found on earth?

The blueberries were tested by Opportunity in 2004 http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn4790 This type of feature is so common on Earth that very few even notice it. Take that picture to your local rockhounding group and ask them what they think of it. They could probably take you to a similar site near where you live. Calm Chaos Forum...Join Calm Chaos Now |

The blueberries were tested by Opportunity in 2004 http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn4790 In my area? I highly doubt it. I have been from one end of this region to the next and Never seen anything like this. Never seen anything like it anywhere and I have been all over the place...Not saying you are wrong, but I am aslo saying the NASA may not be right.

It's not just the scientists from NASA who are studying the data provided by the rovers. I don't know how common they are, but hematite spheres are found also on earth: http://unews.utah.edu/p/?r=022806-17 "Utah’s canyon country is famous for dramatically colored Jurassic (Navajo) sandstone. Professor Chan’s research into the reasons behind the coloration of the red, yellow and white sandstones has yielded clues about the origin of the recently discovered marble-shaped rocks on Mars that are known as hematite concretions and nicknamed “blueberries.†Utah sandstone contains similar round “marbles†that tell a story of how iron-rich groundwater once flowed through the rocks. Most sandstone was originally red due to small amounts of the iron mineral hematite coating individual grains in the rock. Groundwater later moved through the sandstone and removed the iron, leaving the sandstone white. The water carried the dissolved iron until it met and mixed with oxygenated groundwater. At these mixing locations, hematite concretions were deposited in many fantastic shapes and sizes, including the round balls known as “moqui marbles.†Further analysis by Opportunity might provide new information about the spheres. |

Ok, the idea of LGM visiting the Earth is romantic, but... What is the best piece of physical evidence that could convince me, as a skeptic, that aliens have visited the Earth? ------------- "Doctor, you mentioned a ratio of 10 women to each man. Now, wouldn’t that necessitate the abandonment of the so-called monogamous sexual relationship  I mean, as far as men were concerned?" "Regrettably, yes, but, you know, it is a sacrifice required vor ze future of ze human race. Since each man vill be required to do prodigious, uhm, 'service', heh, heh, along zese lines, the vomen vill have to be selected for their sexual characteristics, vich vill have to be of a highly, heh, stimulating nature." |

The next video shows the mass UFO invasion over Lima/Peru on 20.05.2007. I don't know if these are alien ships (as I don't think always UFO = aliens) but this is weird anyway. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkNdXncScmY |
