Apparently an amateur astronomer has found a "structure" on Mars using Google Mars.

Quote
"It's very unusual in that it's quite large, it's over 700 feet long and 150 feet wide, it looks like it's a cylinder or made up of cylinders," he said in the video.
"It could be a powerstation or it could be a biological containment or it could be a glorified garage -- hope it's not a weapon.
"Whoever put it up there had a purpose I'm sure. I couldn't imagine what the purpose was. I couldn't imagine why anybody would want to live on Mars."

Remember, 2012 is only right around the corner.   awesome, for real

I have a suspicion that this is resultant from our numerous missions to Mars or an artifact from the imaging process, but hey, it could be a big gun.

Nice one, Sky.  I think you're probably correct.  An invasion by Martians would probably be good for the economy, however, so I have my fingers crossed.

I can't wait for it to disappear on the next survey pass and the conspiracies to start.

"Bio Station Alpha"? More like "Dander Fluff on Telescope Lens Omega"

I should get back to nature, too.  You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer.  Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached.  Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

Pretty much.  This is what it would look like if you were flying over it:

Hrmm, looks like the MiB got to him.

Seriously, though, there's stuff like this going on all the time.  There was a big flap a while back about the "glass worm" pictures, too.

Screw Google Mars. Where's Google StreetView? I don't like how Google keeps treating Martians like second-grade sentient beings undecided

Maybe the "bio station one" is actually the Google office that is responsible for setting up the street view.

This is one of my new favorite sites, and I'm glad to hear there is a "pseudoscience community" since the mental images are funny.

I don't know if you're familiar with Ben Goldacre's site (he has a column in the Guardian newspaper), but you might enjoy that also:

Because of the other topic near this I feel like I am reading "get randy for the Martian invasion" when I visit serious business...
