David Martines, whose YouTube video of the 'station' has racked up over 200,000 hits so far... Describing the 'structure' as a living quarters with red and blue stripes on it, to the untrained eye it looks nothing more than a white splodge on an otherwise unblemished red landscape... [said] "I call it Bio-station Alpha, because I'm just assuming that something lives in it or has lived in it."
The late Arthur C. Clarke claimed that something resembling banyan trees were clearly visible in recent pix taken from Mars orbit. This makes perfect sense too, because the surface pressure on Mars is the same as Earth's atmospheric pressure at 40 miles altitude.

Why, yes, I am being ironic.

Maybe Arthur C. Clarke saw photos like this one.
