A UFO expert claimed that NASA was able to photograph a light source that is of alien origin on Mars. The expert speculated that the light may have been produced by alien creatures that live below the Martian surface.

Images regarding the strange light on Mars were spotted by the YouTube channel Streetcap 1. According to the owner of the channel, the original images were taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover on Mars.

After viewing the video, Scott Waring of UFO Sightings Daily reported on the images and claimed that the source of the light was not natural. Instead, the UFO expert claimed that it was produced by alien beings on Mars.

Based on the appearance of the beam of light in the photo, it seemed to have originated from the surface. This led Waring to believe that the extraterrestrial lifeforms that produced it lived underground.

Interestingly, a different photo taken by NASA’s rover of the same region on Mars does not show the strange light.

“This could indicate there is intelligent life below the ground and they use light as we do,” Waring stated. “This is not a glare from the sun, nor is it an artifact of the photo process. Look closely at the bottom of the light. It has a very flat surface giving us 100% indication that it is from the surface.”

This is not the first time that strange bright lights were spotted on Mars. Earlier this year, a photograph taken by Curiosity showed what appeared to be a floating ball of light just above the horizon.

According to NASA, these strange light may have most likely been caused by cosmic rays, which are high-energy particles that fly across space.

“When a cosmic ray happens to pass through the retina it causes the rods and cones to fire, and you perceive a flash of light that is really not there,” astronaut Don Pettit wrote in a blog post for NASA. “The triggered cells are localized around the spot where the cosmic ray passes, so the flash has some structure.”

“A perpendicular ray appears as a fuzzy dot,” he added. “A ray at an angle appears as a segmented line.”
