Mars Rovers a Fraud Procto News Service, May 8, 2005) In yet another example of government shadow budgets and Republicans run amok, this exclusive photo of technicians working around the Mars rover proves conclusively that the Spirit and Opportunity Rovers are not on Mars at all - but in the middle of a movie studio. You will remember that during the height of the Vietnam War, the Apollo program and it's shadow budget paid for clandestine military expenditures. Looks like the Republicans are doing the same thing to pad the military budget in the middle of another quagmire. (PNS has uncovered the identities of the two people in the photo - despite the fact that they are attempting to disguise themselves by wearing surgical masks. Standing is Condie Rice, and crouched is Karl Rove. In the upper right hand corner of the photo, the eye of George Bush can be seen, peering from behind the set).

They needed to replicate the terrain in order to test the rovers.
Are we sure it isn't a replica of Helen Thomas's face?
I liked it. :') It seemed obvious that it was poking fun.
Everyone should cut you some slack, and visit this link, which is put forth as serious. Yes, you're reading it right, Truth666 actually believes that Toutatis, the asteroid, or perhaps just the threat of impact by Toutatis (which is neglible) is a hoax. He has others. :')
