The leadership of the American Science Center NASA took photographs of strange white objects on Mars. Users published a snapshot of the "porcelain cups" on the agency's official portal on Thursday.
The discovery was made by Internet researchers who specialize in searching for objects captured in photographs of other planets. The results of the scientific work were published by the expert on Martian anomalies Joseph Skipper.
Internet researchers have studied the panorama of the Martian Gale Crater, which has been studied by the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity robot for the fifth year. They found two strange objects, which differ significantly in color from the surrounding landscape.
White "cups" can be seen only when the images are enlarged. Objects can be detected on either side of a photograph taken in the fall of 2012.
NASA officials did not comment on this study. Meanwhile, other users have suggested that there is an object that looks like a wheel rim on the surface. Scientists have previously stated that life on Mars could have existed only three billion years ago.
