Ancient 'tree' on Mars

UFO hunters claim to find the fossil record of a tree trunk on Mars, indicating that the red planet once covered greenery.

A photo of the Curiosity probe published by the US Aerospace Agency (NASA) in March revealed a vertical object about a meter tall, looking like an ancient tree. Photos shared by Paranormal Crucible account on YouTube, Enginenews reported today.

"This object looks very strange and in my opinion, it may be the stone imprint of a tree on Mars, " said the Paranormal Crucible. "The object is about a meter tall, it would be reasonable to assume that there are many trees that once existed or are still existing on this planet ."

However, according to NASA, all detection of strange objects through the Mars image of the probe is only a result of pareidolia hallucinations. This phenomenon makes people tend to imagine familiar images from unrelated objects.
