Weird Anomaly Caught By Mars Curiosity - Jan 30, 2013

Another weird anomaly caught by Mars Curiosity.


Whatever this is it stands out from the surrounding scenery, could be a weird rock formation, but it does look very like a creature of some kind.


If you look closely at the from legs or paws you can quite clearly see shadows beneath them, this indicates the appendages are protruding out from the main body. In addition, it seems as if the upper part of the object consists of a kind of metal. (maybe two different objects?). Never seen a rock like that before!


Have a look yourself:
