    Man I hope they get the Loose Change guys to do it

    It'll be all like "Contact lost with Mars Global Surveyor"

    Then there'll be a photo of empty Martian landscape and it'll say "Where's the wreckage, NASA?"

    Then there'll be a quote from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter saying it "was no malfunction, looked like aliens"

    Then they'll release it on the Internet and all the scientists and engineers in the world won't be able to convince anyone otherwise

    NASA probably didn't think people would realise that it was an actual skull.

    They were over confident in their past efforts to hide life on mars. If it gets out, then the aliens will cut us off, and no more technology.

    Do you honestly think humans could really invent velcro or tempurfoam?

    It'd make far more sense for NASA to intentially fake up some potential alien thing to get increased funding.

    Unless the Martians are secretly in control of the government and do not wish to be exposed.

    Actually, you can. Unless you terribly misspell "journalistic integrity."

    So, I don't understand the assumption that NASA would cover up the existence of life on Mars. It would seem more likely that they would be trumpeting that news out 24 hours a day to whoever will listen. Such a discovery would lend new relevance to spending massive amounts of money on space travel.

    You know, not only does the rock we're looking at kind of resemble a Stormtrooper's helmet if you squint a little, there's a rock right underneath the "Latitude" thing at the top there that kind of resembles Darth Vader's helmet if you squint a little.

    What could it mean?

    Well, no, obviously that is entirely possible, since Transformers come from space.
