Here's a picture from the Astronomy Picture of the Day site. It is a reconstructed view of 2km-high cliffs on Mars. picture What's funny is that this looks like someone's foam terrain project. It looks like wargaming terrain. andy |

That's because its not real - its foam terrain in a soundstage in LA. Check the shadows. PJ |

I think PJP is on to something. If you look closley, you can see a ring left from some nappy gamer's Mountain Dew can. And some of those "boulders", they look suspiciously like Dorito crumbs. Obviously, there was a late night gaming session held right before this hoax was perpatrated. |

Can't be gamer terrain. Not enough skullz. |

Can't be mars no ancient cities in sight! I have suspect that those NASA guys are doctoring the photos so as to keep Dejah Thoris all to themselves! |

Ahh, C'mon! What's wrong with youse guys? This can't be Mars, there's no FACE! |

Nope, it's Mars. At least from the last time I was there... |

Man, can you imagine trying to assault something on top of that? NOT easy. |
skippy01 | 15 Mar 2005 10:17 a.m. PST |
It's not finding Faces on Mars that worries me, it's finding feces on Mars.... Looks like Tunisia on a bad day... |

".....assault something on top of that? NOT easy" Actually in my cloud ships and rocket packs it would be a cake walk. PJ |

link what about these then... |
Bob Hume | 15 Mar 2005 12:01 p.m. PST |
Thats obviously the martian ocean with the port facility in the lower right. They have a huge tarp over it so passing hillbilly spacecraft think its a dry planet/county, and don't bother to stop. |

must be small, they are a metre across... |

No, its Dune. See the worm tracks ?! |

Actually, I think it is the coffee table that someone took the dremel too. Very nice job of sprinkling and spreading flour on it though, for that snowy, frozen terrain effect. |
PJ Parent | 16 Mar 2005 7:53 a.m. PST |
That's not flour, in fact what you are looking at has a street value of over $10K. These are court pictures. PJ |
