KEY POINTS

  • An alien structure on Mars was spotted in NASA's photo
  • The structure was used by Mars' ancient aliens
  • A UFO expert believes the structure used to be a temple

A UFO expert claimed that one of the photos taken by NASA on Mars accidentally captured the remains of an ancient alien structure. The expert noted that the presence of the structure explains one particular aspect of the nature of the aliens that once lived on Mars.

The image of the alleged alien structure on Mars was spotted by Scott Waring of ET Data Base. He came across the photo while he was browsing Gigapan, a website that features high-quality panoramic photos of Mars.

According to the details of the image, it was taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover on SOL 1436, which is equivalent to Aug. 20, 2018. As seen in the photo, it mainly features a rocky hill on Mars’ desert-like landscape. Scattered across the surface and on the sides of the hill are rocks of various sizes.

However, somewhere near the right side of the photo, Waring noted that he spotted a portion of a structure that is half-buried in the sand. According to the UFO expert, certain features of the structure can still be seen such as its corner walls and a central doorway.

Based on the appearance of the structure as well as its location, Waring speculated that it may have been a temple that was built on the side of a hill. He believes it was used by the ancient aliens that once loved on the Red Planet.

“I found a temple on a hillside on Mars in a Gigapan photo today,” he wrote in a blog post. “The temple is half-buried, but still the doorway is visible and it’s facing us. The corners of the walls are still well preserved and easy to make out.”

As noted by Waring, the existence of a temple on Mars indicate that the ancient aliens that once lived on the planet had some form of religion. He believes that it may have played a huge role in their civilization.

“Putting monuments on mountains and hilltops has always been a significant position for monuments of religious, cultural and historical significance,” Waring stated. “This appears to be a temple. I guess religion gives all species a certain comfort and purpose.”
