A photo recently snapped by NASA’s Curiosity rover, which roams the vast wind-swept expanses of Mars, has captured the sight of a peculiar phenomenon which looks like a flash of white light of unclear origin.

The raw image, in black-and-white, was taken by the rover’s right “navcam” on 16 June

Only at things like DragonCon.

Beautiful women as a rule never sought after me.

I haven’t been to a Con since the early 00s. Too crowded and regimented.

Bernie Casey or one of the crew used a gyrocopter in the Martian Chronicles miniseries.

Erin Gray and my wife used to email each other some about then.

Very pretty and gracious lady.

[Karl Spooner]

There are some interesting anomalies up there.

I wouldn’t be invited.

Hardly Mr.Universe caliber.

Lassie the dog was way before me.

The only famous or close Lassie I might ever meet at a Con might be this one:

You better go to the NASA site and see for yourself.

Hmmmmmm......

Do you know Air Bud?

Lassie was like the early Air Bud.

She couldn’t shoot a basketball.

But she could bark.

Mostly at Timmy who managed to get himself into various situations.

Timmy falls in the well. Timmy faces off with a Mountain Lion. Timmy eats some oysters in a month with no “R”.

Stuff like that.

Timmy, I believe, grew up to be Luke Skywalker or Magic Johnson.

I’m not sure which.

Weather balloon. Standard answer for everything.

Not always.

That first image looks like the bellhousing from a ‘53 Studebaker.

[Swordmaker]

It’s Luke Skywaker’s speeder. . .,

[jagusafr]

Looks like the SS Minnow! Three hour tour, my a$$!

[Celtic Conservative]

Hmmm. I stand corrected.

It's just amazing how mother nature can create stuff like that.

Looks like a do-over of Orville and Wilbur’s flight at Kittyhawk.
