If you're planning to go to the 2014 Annual Fall Meeting of the American Physical Society in Illinois this Saturday, you might be in for a bit of a surprise with the final talk of the day.
Because that's when plasma physicist Dr John Brandenburg will present his theory that an ancient civilisation on Mars was wiped out by a nuclear attack from another alien race.
In his bizarre theory, Dr Brandenburg says ancient Martians known as Cydonians and Utopians were massacred in the attack - and evidence of the genocide can still be seen today. Back in 2011 the scientist first postulated that the red colour on Mars could have been due to a naturally occurring thermonuclear explosion.
'The Martian surface is covered with a thin layer of radioactive substances including uranium, thorium and radioactive potassium - and this pattern radiates from a hot spot on Mars,' he told Fox News at the time.
'A nuclear explosion could have sent debris all around the planet.'
But since then he has advanced his theory to the level that he now no longer thinks it was a naturally occurring explosion - but rather one planned by an intelligent alien race.

Didn’t his wife also die around that time?
I remember reading the man who directed Mars Attacks put the Martian landing in Parumph (spelling, sorry) Nevada as a shout out to Art Bell.
Marduk against Ninurta?
I didn't notice the death of Ramona having an effect, but he was never the same after the sexual molestation of his son by I think a high school teacher.
I think it was refuted before he launched his theory. -tom
Scientists have previously pointed about that the appearance of these elements is not surprising, as they are natural elements found everywhere.

They asked for it and they deserved it!
I added keywords.
“Not my fault” and “History Eraser Button”.
I swear I didn’t do it.
Mars was already ruined before I got there.
They can discuss this garbage at the American Physical Society but global warming is off the table? No wonder Ivar Giaever resigned!
If the b-—h is green there must be something wrong with the p-—y.
Hitchiker’s guide to the Galaxy Text Adventure:
Text: [after using an unregistered text command on the Vogon ship] It is of course well known that careless talk costs lives, but the full scale of the problem is not always appreciated. For instance, at the exact moment you said

Text: a freak wormhole opened in the fabric of the space-time continuum and carried your words far far back in time across almost infinite reaches of space to a distant galaxy where strange and warlike beings were poised on the brink of frightful interstellar battle. The two opposing leaders were meeting for the last time. A dreadful silence fell across the conference table as the commander of the Vl’Hurgs, resplendent in his black jeweled battle shorts, gazed levelly at the G’Gugvunt leader squatting opposite him in a cloud of green, sweet-smelling steam. As a million sleek and horribly beweaponed star cruisers poised to unleash electric death at his single word of command, the Vl’Hurg challenged his vile enemy to take back what it had said about his mother. The creature stirred in its sickly broiling vapour, and at that very moment the words

Eventually the error was detected, but over two hundred and fifty thousand worlds, their peoples and cultures perished in the holocaust. You have destroyed most of a small galaxy. Please pick your words with greater care.
This could be the mother of all “those” threads.
WOW, space chicks have no @sses!
Coincidentally, I rented John Carter just last week. Pretty good, actually.
I agree.
Whatever he was on, I want some of that next time I have surgery.
Foolish Earthlings! Pay no attention to this story or to the saucers hovering over your major cities! It is just the Schwanns men. Return to your pathetic existence. That is all.
I got to hear Art Bell only a few times so I have no opinion.
Maybe L. Ron was right. Just the wrong planet.
