Agreed. The top picture shows a penumbra, which seems unlikely.

Well: no need for over analysis in advance of the facts. Someone will post up genuine pictures of stuff on Mars in a bit and we’ll see the differences.

Addendum: I had a look at http://www.lunexit.it/ to see what I could find, but:

a) it’s all in Italian

b) they have some obvious frauds in there. They probably explain why but not being an Italian reader I couldn’t make head nor tail of it.

And there’s my due diligence for this thread :0)

It's an inscribed copy of the Martian Constitution. You've got to be learned and an old hand at reading these things.
