KEY POINTS

  • A sculpture of an alien face was reportedly spotted on Mars
  • The image of the alleged sculpture was taken by NASA
  • A UFO expert believes the object was a sculpture of an alien deity 

A UFO expert claimed to have spotted a sculpture of an alien face in one of NASA’s photos of Mars. According to the expert, the object depicts the alien species that once thrived on the Red Planet.

The mysterious object was spotted by Scott Waring of the UFO-centered blog ET Data Base. He said he came across the photo as he was browsing Gigapan, a website that features high-resolution panoramic photos of Mars.

The photo that caught Waring’s attention was uploaded to the site by a user named lightworkx4. Although the user stated that the photo was taken by NASA, he did not indicate which mission the image was captured.

The photo mainly features a sloping sandy surface beside a huge boulder on Mars. Scattered across the surface are rocks with different sizes. One of these rocks has an almost cylindrical shape.

After closing examining the rock, Waring noted it’s a huge sculpture of an alien face. He came to this conclusion due to the various details of the rock that resemble facial features. According to Waring, the strange object may have come from the sculpture of a god-like character that the alien civilizations on Mars looked up to.

“I found this amazing side view of a face in a Mars Gigapan photo today,” Waring stated on a blog post. “The detail is fantastic and the ear, nose, eye and forehead all have great detail to the carving. Placing such an important facial sculpture on the side of a hill makes me think this might be some deity or god of theirs.”

“That this person is supposed to be overlooking a long distance from the top of the hill to watch over everyone,” he added. “However it looks like it has fallen due to time, earthquakes and wind.”

As noted by Waring, finding alien sculptures on Mars is very important because they provide an idea about the nature of the civilizations that once lived on the Red Planet. Aside from providing clues regarding their appearance, Waring said that these kinds of relics show an aspect of the beliefs of the ancient alien civilizations on Mars.
