Wood found on Mars? Not Photoshoped - off the nasa website.
Nasa.gov ^

Posted on 12/27/2004 8:38:41 PM PST by Next_Time_NJ



now im not a betting man, but i know landrovers and there space caps are not made of wood. This clearly looks like a wooden plank to me. Unless someone hacked Nasa.gov's website and put up a photoshop'ed photo, this looks kinda odd.

Tracks of rover show that it ran over it. Perhaps petrified or prehaps just floated across the sea. The ground looks saturated with water. May bubble up large scale during high tidal periods with Mar's two moons. John

Looks like a column of lava from an eroded volcanic tube to me.

Looks like a wooden plank to me. But then, I thought the face on Mars looked like a face.

And it's sitting there on that huge stone patio. Some over-worked do-it-yourself-er probably gave up on the pergola.

"is supposedly the heat shield", yes, this must be pictures from opportunity. She's going back to examine the landing area. Have to say it looks like a dried up old lake. And that piece of "wood" actually looks like something that washed up on the "shores" a long time ago. I hope they are going over to it to check it out with the instruments.

I think it's wood. But we need a sample. Who's up for a road trip?
