Scientists believe an alien spaceship could have crashed into Mars




According to scientists, the possibility of an alien spacecraft crash landing on Mars cannot be dismissed as the potential reason behind the peculiar spikey protrusions discovered on the planet's surface.

Urgent! Someone get in touch with Mulder and Scully.

In April, the Curiosity Rover from NASA captured images of formations that seem to be rows of spikes, plates, and wedges jutting out from the rocks at the base of the 154km-long Gale Crater.
Astrobiologist Dr. Nathalie Cabrol, affiliated with the NASA Ames Research Centre and the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) Institute, has dedicated more than two decades to studying Mars. She describes the rock in question as the most peculiar one she has ever come across.

A recent publication in the Journal of Astrobiology suggests that the formations could be 'sand spikes'. However, the researchers also acknowledge that the possibility of the formations being a fragment from either an extraterrestrial or terrestrial spacecraft cannot be completely ruled out.
The scientists have also noticed the presence of wheels, an axle, and a debris field in addition to the spikes.

Sand spikes typically emerge in water-logged sands during massive earthquakes.

Similar spikes resembling the ones captured in photographs on Mars have been discovered in the north Alpine basin of south Germany and at Mount Signal in the Imperial Valley of southern California.
While there is no definitive way to ascertain the exact nature of the spikes, Professor Richard Armstrong from Aston University, Birmingham, stated to The Telegraph that the preponderance of evidence suggests they are 'sand spikes' resulting from seismic activity on Mars. He also posited that the enigmatic 'wheels' might be a distinct phenomenon.

Images of Mars often depict curious formations and features that bear a resemblance to familiar objects.

"Over time, any debris field present on Mars would likely undergo erosion, particularly due to the effects of wind."

The authors of the study also keep open the possibility that the spikes could be a result of human activity.

In the paper, they state, "Considering the possibility of multiple spacecraft, around 10 or more, having crashed on the Martian surface, along with the potential shedding of equipment during rover landings, it is conceivable that the spikes and their substrate may be of human origin, comprising debris that fell onto the surface of Gale Crater."

"However, there is no apparent debris field visible, nor any evidence of additional materials originating from Earth."

"Due to their small size, the lack of known human-made analogs, and the absence of a clear purpose for these spikes, it seems unlikely that these specimens are remnants of spacecraft or equipment that landed in Gale Crater."

"Speculation regarding an extraterrestrial origin remains the only avenue for consideration."
