    NASA's new Mars picture | Photo Gallery - Yahoo! News

    I can't zoom in at the moment due to being at work and if i procrastinate i will forget but the first picture here looks of a base with airstrips on mars? That looks like alot for a few small probs randomly exploring the planet, to me that looks like a small military base, any other thoughts?

    I checked it out. It's a compilation of pictures to make a panoramic view. Here is a video Link that makes it easier to comprehend what you are seeing.

    It sent me to a video about global warming lol, but that seems far to uniform for a bot to be driving around taking pictures, that all looks far to advanced for just sending unmanned crafts to mars, it looks like a base to me. perhaps its just me being over reactive.
