10 Mars Photos That Will Give You Nightmares

 

the red planet is constantly being  photographed by the multiple rovers that  are on it  and some of the photos they've captured  are truly terrifying  here are 10 mars photos that will give  you nightmares  number 10 tadpole on mars to start off  the list we're going to be taking a look  at the strange formation  on the surface of mars that caught the  attention of many people  this formation shows a large circle with  a small tail coming out of its rear end  many people have compared this formation  to how a tadpole a sperm cell or even  how a yo-yo looks like  no one knows how this formation was  really formed since it's so  smooth and unlike any other formation  we've seen  in fact the tail of the formation  actually looks as if an actual human  finger had made it  like running your finger down some sad  things get more suspicious when you take  in the fact that mars had quite a  watery past and similar to earth most of  the planet was actually water  at one point and guess where amphibians  usually lay tadpoles  number 9 dust devil on mars if you want  to take a look at a picture that's  pretty scary in its own right and  isn't some sort of alien conspiracy then  look no further than this one  dust devils are a very common phenomenon  on mars considering it's one of the  dustiest planets in the solar system  and they can actually be quite dangerous  and form into entire tornadoes  if we're ever to colonize mars at all  the dust devils  tornadoes and severe storms will be  something we'll definitely need to keep  a lookout for  but even while sitting here on earth  this image does seem really ominous  number eight cannonball if the theory is  true that there was life on mars before  a mass extinction event  how advanced was that life that's  another question  many people have when it comes to the  many hypothetical elements related to  mars  this question popped up once again in  2017  when an image from mars curiosity rover  showed a rock that looked a lot like an  actual cannonball  perhaps there were ancient wars on the  red planet that we don't know of  a popular conspiracy blog posted an  image of this said cannonball  but nasa immediately refuted the image  on twitter by saying it's  actually less than a quarter inch in  size and is made up of calcium sulfate  sodium and magnesium number seven  marzalanche  it's both incredible and scary how  similar mars and earth really are  they have quite similar seasons as well  summer spring fall and winter  mars is spring which occurs around may  and june of earth time  is known to be particularly  unpredictable this image captured in  2010 from nasa's reconnaissance orbiter  shows an actual avalanche happening on  the red planet and it shows the complete  destruction this avalanche can cause  it could also be a fall of mostly carbon  dioxide frost  according to nasa but whatever it is it  certainly does seem terrifying  number six waffle island while this  photo might not give you nightmares  unless you have a super specific phobia  it's surely going to confuse you in 2014  nasa's reconnaissance orbiter took this  picture of an  island that many people on the internet  dubbed as waffle island  some people took it a step further and  said the island actually looks like it  has veins wrapped all around it  and we're inclined to agree with it who  knows  maybe this is the heart to all life on  mars it's likely just a geographical  anomaly though  number five strange statue on mars  this is a photo that was released by  nasa at the tail end of the opportunity  mission on mars  remember the primary mission of these  rovers is not simply to take pictures of  mars  but to find signs of life on the planet  and these  rovers are actually designed to take  pictures of anything that may resemble  life  in 2019 when this photo was released  everyone had only one thing on their  minds  that this is a picture of some sort of  statue if not an actual living being  you can look at the picture and make up  your own mind on what it is  because as much as nasa or any other  space expert might tell us  there's clearly something up with the  structure we see in this image  there's almost no way this is simply a  natural geological formation  there has to be some sort of intelligent  being that created this  as it strikingly resembles an actual  human being  perhaps the rover just wanted to play a  goodbye prank on us before ending its  mission  we're not too amused number four thigh  bone  when it comes to random objects on mars  oftentimes  they're a bit of a stretch while we're  not going to insist  any of these items are what the  conspiracy theorists say they  are we're not denying them either in  fact that's usually nasa's response to  whenever these items are found  neither confirmed or deny the thigh bone  though fits the description of an actual  human thigh bone to a t  the thigh bone is actually of a  different color from all the other rocks  that were surrounding it  which already raised many people's  suspicions but this picture took a whole  new form of glory when anatomists  people who aren't exactly the biggest  conspiracy theorists pointed out that  this  rock looks exactly like a human fiber  in comparison here's what a human thigh  bone actually looks like  do you see the resemblance of course  this could just be a strange long rock  which is also what most experts claim  but we're still not ruling out the  possibility number three gold on mars  in 2012 the curiosity rover released a  bunch of images of mars  and one particular image surprised  everyone  in the middle of a rather dull general  martian soil covered in shade  there was one small rock that seemed to  shine its way through attracting  everyone's even the rover's attention  nasa later confirmed that this type of  material is actually quite common on  mars  but they didn't really confirm what it  is  i don't know about you guys but we can't  wait for the martian gold rush  number two spoon on mars for a planet  that seems to have no way of feeding  humans it sure  seems to want us to eat in the early  days of the curiosity rover when  everyone was anxious for every picture  released by it  nasa released this strange picture of  rocks that are formed in a way where it  makes it seem like there's a spoon being  held up by the rocks  normally on earth a fragile structure  like this would simply fall to the  ground but on mars  gravity is much weaker so structures  like this are actually quite stable  do you think this resembles an actual  spoon let us know in the comments below  number one face on mars one of the most  classic images to ever come out of the  red planet was this strange and  downright creepy image of what looks  like a face on the surface of mars  while we admit it's entirely possible  for something like this to naturally  form  there's plenty of examples of faces like  this to pop up naturally on the earth  as well as on a variety of different  surfaces still  we can't help but be fascinated by an  image that looks so  similar to an actual human face the  detail is ridiculous  there are perfectly formed eyes down to  the curve and corners of the eyes  there is an actual nostril visible in  the image the rocks are placed as if the  face has an actual hairline  and there are lips that are placed  almost perfectly below the nose  just like actual humans have geography  has a funny way of playing tricks on us  but for many of us this coincidence is  too precise  not to be on purpose the face was  captured by the viking one in 1976  and in 2001 nasa took an updated photo  of the face  that shows it has completely flattened  maybe they knew we were catching on  that's a wrap for the 10 mars photos  that will give you nightmares  if you enjoyed this article make sure to  leave us a like and subscribe to our  channel for more articles like this
