Wood found on Mars? Not Photoshoped - off the nasa website.
Nasa.gov ^

Posted on 12/27/2004 8:38:41 PM PST by Next_Time_NJ



now im not a betting man, but i know landrovers and there space caps are not made of wood. This clearly looks like a wooden plank to me. Unless someone hacked Nasa.gov's website and put up a photoshop'ed photo, this looks kinda odd.

Was there a camera remaining behind on the deployment pad? The tracks of the rover appear to go right over it.

Hey - it's not MY fault. I locked up all those props and threw away the key. I don't know how the Alien got ahold of them. Better ask Sigourney.

;^D

I have been tracking the rovers and remember "opportunity" coming out of the crater and spotting the shield off in the distance for the first time. I never saw this picture though. What was the SOL date? Which camera angle (Panoramic - front horizacam or navigation camera?

It had to be about SOL 325.

Please let me know.

I joke about Mars lumber...not dead people. This was my comment:

Didn't we all evolve from "plank"-ton?

Not everyone appeciates the humor. Here's a Freepmail I just received from another fellow Freeper (whose identity I shall not reveal):

It's just swamp gas. Pay no attention to this and go back to what you were doing! ;}

Hey, what's with this guy, I guess we touched a sore spot. He's probably a poster on the 'Never Ending Thread'.

Looks like it was taken around sol 315 when the rover came out of the crater...the tracks we see are most likely from before the rover went into the crater.

Maybe it drifted from this Martian forest:
