To me, its very strange, but it might be the shadow of the rock though.

As much as I would love to claim that it's Alien life, it's not. It's just a weird shaped rock. I mean look at the bottom, it clearly goes into the ground.

Oh, and you cited the Daily Mail, apparently it's not that reliable as a source for some people, so might want to get a new source. ;)

I do believe we've had this topic before. Regardless, it more likely than not is a rock, and if it's not a rock, than it's photoshopped. I'd need more substantial evidence from a planet devoid of water and an atmosphere. Liquid water, that is.

But they have found fossilized bacteria on Mars, though.

You just want the snu snu don't you?

I regretfully refuse to answer that question on the grounds that my wife is armed. :p

Though it seems all fun at first, a crushed pelvis is no laughing matter!

:D heh, snu snu.

Although I think I myself will try to score with that sexy femputer over there.

That rock in question is at most five feet from the rover. Meaning our new Martian overlords are about 3 inches tall.

*sings*

"The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one! But still, they come!"

I for one have already started building a fireproof hideout in the garden. Pesky Martians. All we have to do is hide and they'll get killed off by the common cold again. :p

Good lord, I thought I was the only one subjected to the radio musical version of War of the Worlds...but then you went and made me have to stretch my brain to remember where I've heard that and now the memory scars me...you bastard...

I doubt it's an alien...what are the chances that life on Mars would evolve in a similar manner to our own with similar shape and limbs? If Martians exist I don't think they would look anything like us...

Looks like bigfoot in a skirt.

The 3rd picture down in the link given in OP.. What is all that stuff in the forefront of the picture? Looks like we have built platforms or floors or something. You can see the dirt on the tiles/bricks whatever. And on the right side.. that cylinder thing .. what is that? And what's the stuff in the middle? All that stuff interests me much more than some distant image in the background.

I think that's the rover itself. That cylinder thing is the smaller antenna in the back and the deck is the solar panels. It's just shooting backwards over itself at the landscape, and sense the lens is wide angle it caught some of itself in the photo. Look at the fourth photo, compare the cylinder to the small antenna.
