Hi Macten, I suggest we start a new one. The area you are referring to has been the object of heated discussion on the forum in the past and includes the Mars Balancing Throne thread (to be found under the Members Favourites page). We nicknamed this area Temple Mount quite some time ago, it includes the Balancing Rock, Skippers head anomaly, the throne and moving to the right of the area what seemed to be ruins and carvings of a temple and then culminating in what appears to be a biological entity lying face down surrounded by wreckage.
I suggest that we re-examine the area with all the new members we have on board, it's a fascinating area and I personally would like to go back there. When I have a moment I will try to create a new post called Temple Mount and I will put all the work we have done so far on the area into it as a start point. Just bear with me as I will have to sift through the older posts to find them all.
Thands for that link Chandre, it saves be from going over already pointed out things like the decoration (very evident) and the other symbols on that "throne".
I was going to do a very large post on the entire area (several sol's) as it is filled with differing types of anomolies. In your opinion, would it be better to post to this thread or start a new one?
The "Alien or Grey" That Feerdinand referrs to in the photograph appears to be fused to the pedistal and does not exhibit the same features of other representations of Greys that I have seen. EG: Eyewitness descriptions. It does appear to be part of the "Rock" or whatever material that really is, and also appears to be "stylized" as it has features like a carving or a statue. Due to the fact that the entire area is filled with crumbling sculpture, including the previous and later SOL's on this very hilltop leads me to believe that it is part of some type of religious or other temple type complex that has been destroyed.
Sorry to disagree but that is my 2 cents on this.
I have been wanting to do a report on this area known as "crumble" or "balancing rock" maybe this is a good thread to do it in.
If you look closely at what is behind the skull-shape you will see an array of tiny structures. The image provided is not very clear so I will see if I can find a clearer one. I surveyed this area a long time ago and found most of what is being presented here.
The texture on the large rock is not not alien skin. Even here there are many tiny structures that have been erected on the rock with a round tower at the highest point.
If only NASA had thought of using a decent camera we could have had much better PanCam images to work with.

It is interesting what it can lead to if we listen carefully to what others say, For example, the word "dried alien skin". it can be clothing. In support of this I send you a few Astronaut skins.
Sometimes it is difficult to identify individual items. As in this example. I'm not saying that this is a naked man with plank glued to the back of his head, playing his cello, it would be nice scene but maybe a bit absurd considering previous results, unless this is a staged opera in the area of natural environment. Seriously, what do we know, such as the culture of the surrounding smoke control, when NASA is pouring a feast.
Ps. do not tell me that this is the post of the year.
Hi Feerdinand, I have looked over this entire series many times and never spotted that. I see what you mean. It almost looks like a dried up alien skin laying there on that rock. The whole area is riddled with anomalies. Have a look at the sols before and after and all the different cams too. It's amazing what you can find.
I did a little enhancing to bring out the alien hide.
These two are from the same sol only the nav cam instead. One is from the top of the set and one from the bottom, so they are not simply left and right cam shots they are from two
different times. Doesn't it look like this guy moves?
Ferdinand, hello. Having once did a study of this area, and was mostly focused on the skull ( see: 'fighter pilot on Mars'). Skipper considers, from the obfuscation around, that it was to cover up the body, and notes the pilot had some kind of collar on . I had noted what appeared a bail-out or pilots seat but was mainly interested to present a report on the skull and helmet as representing the fused remains of a fighter pilot of long ago. That you, in my opinion, correctly connected the dots and deduced this be a pilots-seat and body of an alien, possibly a grey, is a suprising and accurate interpretation of the scene. Sounds like a real Independance Day of the past. Good interpretation Ferdinand, yes! -Morbius
