Is There a Humanoid Figure on Mars?
Recently many articles swamped the Internet, including one of our own, about a humanoid figure being seen on Mars. And since then, astronomers have dashed everyone’s hopes saying it is nothing but a rock–a rock that looks like a human body. The image, taken by the NASA robot Spirit, quickly was recognized as a tangent thing even though Mars is 35 million miles away. The odd thing is that NASA and the astronomers have hundreds of articles online boasting of the quality of their latest telescopes, bragging of their long-distance viewing, and spending thousands of dollars regarding new stars and galaxies thousands and millions of light years away. But suddenly the telescopes are not strong enough to prove this is a humanoid figure as close as Mars, which is why nobody has looked into it. I would say something stinks in Denmark here.
The problem is that with so much scuttlebutt out about our government and its secretive issues regarding space and found life from other planets, such as Area 51, nobody believes them. SETI recently took them to court and won, proving the NASA and certain government areas hide information from the public and falsify documents–anything it can do to keep the information secretive if there is anything of value about it. What concerns me is the fact some of SETI’s employees originally came from NASA, which makes them a non-independent body as they state.
But their latest story, which quite a large number of people do not believe–including ourself, is the theory of pareidolia. This is the phenomenon where people see faces in clouds and coffee stains, a well-known theory in psychology. It is also a theory that does away with the religious and miraculous events regarding each Jesus and Mary viewing by the general mass. And to be honest, most of the people who have observed these viewings believe the viewing more than the “scientific proof” of pareidolia. But this is just one more story between science and non-science theories, which has been ongoing for a long time.
For the amount of money spent on Mars regarding future habitats or life on Mars, I would see if there was “nothing there” we have wasted a lot of money–unless NASA and the U.S. government cannot tell the difference between science from science fiction. The fact is, we have a strong desire to contact someone in space, regardless of anything or anyone else. Nietzsche says, “That which does not kill a man makes him stronger.” And so far, nobody from outer space has killed anyone on Earth–but can we say the same?
