I like the heavy metal-style piano version of the Star Wars theme, very much indeed!
Other than that, very similar to other videos I've seen "proving" the existence of artificial objects on Mars - intriguing, but not wholly convincing. Was this your own video, Gaz, or something you've stumbled across? I've sat and watched many of this type of clip, large parts of me hoping for something beyond the threshold of proof, but I'm still waiting, I'm afraid. I'd love it to be true, but like Richard Hoagland's shattered crystal domes on the Moon, I think you've got to already believe to be able to see anything in the photos. Trouble is, we're all looking at 2-D images, and trying to view them at the limits of resolution and infer something in 3-D.
I know these vids are a bit cheesy but I like them anyway ..
According to the report the two cameras take a photo at slightly different times so if the light is flashing it could be visible one second and then off the next second.Yes but why... forgive my ignorance... would it be seen in one camera lens and not the other? I guess the two see a slightly offset view, like our eyes, but... surely a flash of light such as this, would still be visible by both?
The CCD thing, is there one per lens? Could one be faulty / less sensitive or something?

The chances of anything coming from Morse are a million to one.Martian Morse?
Yet still they come...---...The chances of anything coming from Morse are a million to one.

The search for evidence of microbial life on Mars - whether fossil or extant - is ramping up, and it's even being included in the mission statements of future Mars missions. According to one scientist, though, we may have already found life on Mars, and it's not titchy microbes, but strapping great bugs.
Entomologist William Romoser of Ohio University has spent years poring over publicly released photos taken by Mars rovers, and he says that many of them show structures that look a heck of a lot like insects, in among the rocks - fossilised as well as living.
And he's even spotted a few things that look like snakes. This body of evidence is, he said, a good justification for investigating further. He presented his findings, which have not been peer-reviewed, at the Entomological Society of America annual meeting in St Louis. ...
"There has been and still is life on Mars," Romoser claims. ...
This entomologist has intensely studied the photos transmitted back from the surface of Mars, and he's convinced he's identified what appear to be insects, and perhaps even snakes, there. He's serious enough to present his findings at a professional conference.

I think I have some subsidiary info. Apparently there might be some news on the viking landings and curiosity and their various tests for life soon. Apparently there have been interesting seasonal changes in oxygen and methane on mars that may well be the best case for life there so far. Expect an announcement of some sort soon.This entomologist has intensely studied the photos transmitted back from the surface of Mars, and he's convinced he's identified what appear to be insects, and perhaps even snakes, there.

Bunk. Rhawn Joseph is listed as lead author. Rhawn has a long history of pushing pseudoscience. If you do a Google search on this site you’ll see his name come up at times in prior stories. He was involved in the infamous Journal of Cosmology which billed itself as a serious scientific journal but let junk be published. It was initially taken seriously by some news organizations but after they got burned, that changed pretty quickly. Anyway, Rhawn has notions about a very odd variation on panspermia, thinks evolutionary theory is wrong (he isn’t a creationist but has a different notion), insists the universe must be eternal (no Big Bang) and takes about anything as evidence for his notions.Here, he is looking at pictures and saying “It looks like life to me” with no real evidence.
Sounds like party decorations to me!white or blue puffy, round balls with streamers coming out seem to turn up in a lot of Mars rover photos
