Bright light on Mars

Quite interesting. You can click that pic to see the light or go HERE and read the hub-bub. Scientist's explanation includes a camera malfunction, the Sun (dur) and a shiny rock. It also includes the word 'possiblilities'. We all know there are no Humans on Mars right now to tell us what they actually saw. We have to rely on static robot information. I don't know why the government is incapable of saying, hey, we don't know. I think we're past the panic mode of the 1950's. It's ignorant to think we are the only life in space looking at Mars.  On the other hand, it could be a shiny rock. Shrugs. (But, none of the rocks in the foreground look the least bit 'shiny' to me. Plus that light is going straight up. Odd.) Send a damn robot over there, will ya? Sometimes I think NASA and scientist should not be in the same sentence. But, then, our wonderful government has cut their funding so much to fund their big boy war and fight anti-christian/anti-women movements, is is any wonder?

It's okay..I just woke up feeling cynical. It will get better.

Interesting and creepy. I saw the article yesterday, and it really looks like the light is radiating upwards. I don't think it has anything to do with the position of the sun or a shiny rock. If it isn't either of those things, I am surprised that this got out.

Me either and that 'left eye/right eye' of the camera explanation was dumb. We all have cameras now. Doh.
