EALING: Conspiracy theorists can’t seem to get enough of the shadowy images sent by NASA’s Mars Curiosity Rover.
In their latest ‘discovery’, they claim to have spotted the Star Destroyer from Star Wars on Mars.
‘I found this anomaly in the latest Curiosity Rover photo. The black object looks like a crashed UFO,’ wrote UFO Sightings contributor Scott Waring.
He said the ‘craft’ is only about 2.5 to 3 meters across, ‘so it probably only held a few passengers.’
The fictional Star Destroyers were the warships used mainly by the Empire in Star Wars, and were many times larger than the ‘craft’ Waring spotted.
‘There is only one photo of the ship. The rover usually takes many of each area, but not this one. Perhaps tomorrow it will take more,’ Waring wrote.
This isn’t the first time Hollywood blockbusters have influenced alien hunters.
A few weeks ago, a group said they had spotted a mysterious ‘facehugger crab’ on the red planet.
