Alien or rock formation? UFO hunters claim extraterrestrial presence on Mars! 

New Delhi: The search for extraterrestrial life has been going on for years and those involved in alien hunting or UFO hunting have on many occasions, come close enough to provide evidence justifying their presence.

UFO hunters and alien investigators alike love to go into the minute details of images beamed back by NASA rovers currently coursing through the Martian landscape.

Previously, in 2015, a certain image had caught their attention showing what looked like an alien head peering from behind a huge cave-like rock, looking directly into the Curiosity camera.

Once again, their hawk-like eyes have caught something similar in a different image captured by the 4WD droid.

Slightly more than a decade ago, a bizarre six-inch skeleton was unearthed in Chile’s Atacama Desert, which gave rise to speculations that aliens had crash-landed on Earth.

Now, YouTube user Paranormal Crucible claims that just feet away from the Curiosity rover, in one of the most recent images of Mars, a tiny humanoid alien can be seen spying from behind a Martian rock, which they believe could be a living member of the same species found in Atacama.

As per the Daily Mail, Paranormal Crucible wrote that, “Interesting anomolie [sic] found by the rover, which looks like a little Martian. I have colorized the image and added eyes to the head so its easier to see, but everything is there in the original images, whatever it is it looks humanoid, reminds me of the Atacama Alien, about the same size too, this one is around 6 inches.”

The small figure is being speculated to be that of a female Martian, going by the shape of its body.

Scott C Waring, editor of UFO Sightings Daily, agreed with the discovery saying that, “This human-like figure is peering around the corner of a rock wall and I can make out its head, chest, shoulders, arm, leg, knee, and foot from this one close up photo,” according to the Daily Mail.

In 2013, however, DNA tests on the tiny skeleton confirmed that the bizarre specimen found in Chile was not an alien, but a human with an ‘interesting mutation.’

But, alien and UFO investigators seem to stand by their discovery.
