KEY POINTS

  • UFO expert Scott Waring claimed to have spotted alleged alien hibernation pods on Mars
  • The photo of the alleged pods was taken by NASA's Curiosity rover
  • Waring believes the pods were capable of traveling through space

While viewing the photos taken by NASA on Mars, a UFO expert claimed to have spotted pod-like objects. The expert believes the objects belonged to alien creatures that lived on the Red Planet.

The claims about the alleged alien pods on Mars were made by Scott Waring of ET Data Base in a recent blog post. According to Waring, he came across images of the strange objects while he was browsing Gigapan, a website that features high-resolution panoramic photos of the Red Planet.

As Waring was going through the site, he spotted a photo taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover on SOL 952, which is equivalent to April 10, 2015 on Earth. The photo mainly features a rocky terrain on Mars.

While viewing the photo, the UFO expert saw three objects that he claimed were pods used by aliens. Although the objects closely resembled the other rocks in the area, Waring noted that they had distinct features that indicate their artificial nature. He believes that the objects looked like rocks mainly because they were made from naturally available materials.

“This one in the screenshot above is actually 1/4 broken open and it’s easy to see that this is an intelligently constructed pod of some sort,” he stated. “It just makes sense that these pods were constructed from the local materials that were easier to find and use. That is why they appear similar to their environment.”

In his blog post, Waring noted that the objects could be hibernation pods. Based on their appearance, Waring noted that the alleged pods could also be flying vessels that are capable of traveling across space.

“I believe these pods to be a hibernation chamber of sorts,” he explained. “One even has two small wings and a hole broke open revealing the hollow cockpit area, so it might also be a flying craft of some sort that could possibly travel through space.”

Although Waring stated that he saw the alleged alien pods in a photo captured by Curiosity on Mars, NASA did not release a statement that confirms or addresses the UFO expert’s claims.
