We have all heard of little green men from Mars.
But now an American 'armchair astronaut' claims to have discovered a mysterious structure on the surface of the red planet - by looking on Google earth.
David Martines, whose YouTube video of the 'station' has racked up over 200,000 hits so far, claims to have randomly uncovered the picture while scanning the surface of the planet one day.
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.
He even lists the co-ordinates 49'19.73"N 29 33'06.53"W so others can go see the anomaly for themselves.
In a pre recorded 'fly by' video of the object, Mr Martines describes what he thinks the station might be.
He said: 'This is a video of something I discovered on Google Mars quite by accident.
'I call it Bio-station Alpha, because I'm just assuming that something lives in it or has lived in it.

It's my old office. I used to work there (on the planet Mars). The rent was cheap, but I got very little walk-in traffic and the long distance phone bills were horrendous.

We are not alone.
See the Disclosure Project site for the two press conferences held at the National Press Club in DC. Very impressive witnesses...many former government employees with first hand knowledge of alien visitation.

That’s what I’m betting. A computer glitch.

Bio Station Alpha on Mars.

Place even seems to have a geodesic dome covering a radar array at one end. Structure is highly reflective, as though made of metal.
Go see the youtube video; I don’t know what it is.

It's headquarters for AlGore's advance team of "Marsal Warming"...as soon as he get's Romney sworn-in as an official "Climateer" and he gets his first merit badge, he'll be joining the advance team on the red planet.
Right now the only one there is some guy named Ben Ladden, or something like that...he's brand new.

How did this make it to a news source without a “LOL” in the headline?

I'm wondering what it takes to get a "trained eye".

I’m thinking it’s about 8 pixels and probably 6 miles across.

Bicubic compression attempts to smooth sharp pixel edges. It looks OK at normal resolution but when you blow it up it takes on unnatural straight edges. Pixels are single color data. You don’t get half red and half white pixels, you get a red pixel, a pink pixel, and a white pixel. Bicubic is the most commonly used size reduction option in photoshop.
