A UFO expert claimed that NASA’s recent photos of Mars show an ancient alien pyramid on the Red Planet. Based on the photos, the UFO expert said that traces of looting can be seen on a portion of the structure.

Scott Waring of ET Data Base came across photos of Mars’ landscape as he was browsing the Gigapan’s website, which was established through a collaborative effort by the Carnegie Mellon University and NASA.

One of the photos that Waring saw was a panoramic image taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover. According to the space agency, the photos used to create the panoramic image were taken on SOL 2492, which is equivalent to the date Aug. 10, 2019.

The photos feature Mars’ vast landscape with various hills and rock formations across the surface. According to Waring, in one particular photo, a structure that strongly resembles a pyramid can be seen. The pyramid is situated right next to a hill, which could also be an artificial structure on the Red Planet.

The UFO expert noted that the structure may have been built by an ancient alien race a long time ago. Despite this, Waring said it was still able to maintain its overall appearance due to the natural protection offered by the dirt on Mars.

Based on the photo, Waring noted that a portion of the structure appears to have eroded. Although this could be caused by natural factors, Waring speculated that someone or something may have tried to enter the pyramid-like structure to steal valuable objects inside it. The UFO expert said it may have been done by other alien beings on Mars.

“This pyramid was dead center of a Gigapan photo of Mars,” Waring wrote in a blog post. “The pyramid is mostly still intact. Probably protected through the ages by being covered in the sand and dirt.”

“I am wondering if the side of the pyramid was eroded away or if looters were trying to access something deeper below the pyramid?” he continued. “I'm sure looting is not an exclusive thing to Earth, but is a problem most intelligent species may have while starting out.”
