  • A UFO expert spotted an alien relic on Mars
  • Photo of the alleged relic was taken by the Curiosity rover
  • The expert believes the alleged bowl was used by ancient aliens

A UFO expert claimed to have spotted an ancient alien relic in a photo taken by NASA on Mars. According to the expert, the alleged artifact indicates the level of intelligence of the ancient aliens that once lived on the strange planet.

The alleged alien relic was spotted by Scott Waring of ET Data Base. He came across the image of the strange object while he was browsing the photos on Gigapan. This site features high-quality photos of Mars taken during NASA’s missions.

One of the photos that caught Waring’s attention was taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover on SOL 309, which is equivalent to June 19, 2013. The panoramic image features the desert-like landscape of Mars and shows rocks of varying sizes and shapes on the ground.

After zooming in near the bottom portion of the image, Waring saw a slightly circular object. According to Waring, the object was a bowl that was used by the ancient alien civilization that once thrived on Mars. The UFO expert noted that the object slightly resembled the bowls made and used by early humans.

For Waring, the presence of the bowl indicated that the aliens that lived on the Red Planet were intelligent enough to make and use tools and instruments. Like humans on Earth, the alleged aliens relied on tools as they carried out their daily activities.

“While looking over some Mars photos, I noticed a bowl that was cracked and full of dirt,” Waring stated in a blog post. “A bowl might not seem important to a lot of people, but to me its 100% proof that the aliens that lived here were intelligent. You see, they made a bowl...a tool or instrument to help serve the family food.”

Waring noted that the alleged alien bowl had a unique design that could be related to its functions. Although the bowl looked damaged in the photo, Waring noted that some of its features could still be spotted.

“This bowl is thicker on the center sides but thinner on the top and bottom,” Waring stated. “The bowl also has finger push marks in its side still visible.”
