'It may be an optical illusion but it has big ears, nose and eyes visible.
Mr White, a space video journalist from Bristol, said: 'It is what looks like a very large rodent in Gale Crater sitting on a ridge, plain as day The 'bird' is shown highlighted in this circle It was spotted by amateur astronomer Joe White, 45, who noticed a chunk of rock in Nasa's footage that looks bizarrely like a small rodent on the surface of the planet.Įlsewhere, among a photograph showing craggy rocks, eagle-eyes hunters spied a bird resembling a penguin or eagle. The Martian 'rat' was such a big hit it even had its own Twitter account, last month, a 'mouse' was spotted scurrying along a ridge of 96 mile-long (154km) Gale Crater.
'Because the squirrel would be expected to die eventually and that would get Peta to fight against them in a court of law.' 'Why would they not tell us about it?' he wrote. It appears to show a rodent crouching between two rocks and Waring suggested Nasa may have flown it to Mars in secret as part of an experiment to test whether life could survive on the red planet. Similarly, a 'Martian rat' was spotted in an image taken by Nasa's Curiosity rover. He suggested the space agency hides such 'signs of life' to help the US get ahead in the race for alien technology.Įlsewhere, among a photograph showing craggy rocks, eagle-eyes hunters spied a bird resembling a penguin or eagle.Īfter pondering the strange image, his team concluded the 'bunny ears' (shown left) had been part of the rover or its lander (right) while the rest of the 'rabbit' was actually a piece of airbag material (right)
'Of course they make an excuse and say it's part of the rover landing gear, uh.like we were born yesterday.' Waring said: 'Of course Nasa tries to downplay the fact this is alien life, although it is seen moving and then disappears. He said: 'It looks as if the object has been blown under the north-facing egress ramp.'Īlien hunters disagreed with Nasa's seemingly plausible explanation and took to UFO Sightings to share their theories. When he tried to image the 'ears' they had vanished, moving 15ft (4.5 metres) from the lander and was ordered to 'track the bunny'. Jeff Johnson, a scientist from the US Geological Survey was alerted to a small 'fuzzy-looking object' measuring about two inches long (4-5cm).Īfter pondering the strange image, his team concluded the 'bunny ears' had been part of the rover or its lander, while the rest of the 'rabbit' was actually a piece of airbag material. Photographed in 2014, Nasa admitted that its Opportunity rover had snapped an object that resembled a rabbit. Other small animals have also been spotted, including a rat, eagle and rabbit.
'Recognising a crab in a landscape filled with rocks is no more surprising - nor more significant - than seeing a winking face in a semi-colon followed by a parenthesis.' 'Maybe they think there are cars on Mars.' 'It's usually some sort of animal, but occasionally even weirder objects such as automobile parts,' explained Seth Shostak, director of the Centre for Seti Research. Scientists claim we also tend to use this ability to 'enrich our imagination' and recognise meaningful shapes, even when they're not there. Human eyes can spot faces within their environment and it helps them recognise friends in a crowd, work out how fast a car is travelling, and see patterns. This is a psychological response to seeing faces and other significant and everyday items in random stimulus and is a form of apophenia - when people see patterns or connections in random, unconnected data. While these 'animals' may be living on Mars according to UFO hunters, scientists explained their presence with the mind trick, pareidolia.
