Initially, I thought this might be a small planetry body but it appears over the course of several days, mostly in the distance and mostly as a ball-shape. I wonder if it could be a drone or craft of some kind? Otherwise, what is it? It appears on both left and right cameras so it is not a piece of dirt on the lens.

ball-shaped craft above the rock outcrop:


This is probably the best image of it. Link

It looks like a gap in the data. If it was an object, wouldn't it reflect light rather than absorb it?

Actually, the right images are obscured so, I was wrong, we cannot see it on the right image. However see below, there is another left camera image which also shows the same craft. There are also other (but not so clear) indications in other images and other Sols that there may be craft watching the rovers.

There is another left camera image though on page 3 of the Sol 504 collection.. In the Filters section type in Sol 504 of this page

Annoyingly, the right camera image has some piece of rover blocking the part where the object would be.

in both right camera images.
Here is the other one.

Can you imagine designing a multmillion dollar rover for off-world exploration and then have half the cameras view obscured by a sunvisor or rover arm. I do not think NASA engineers would do something like that. Anyway...

Digital artifact....If one was to look closely at many of these digital images from Mars, for example, you'll see these artifacts (glitches) are in many images. Having worked with images for many years, this is common. One can especially spot them in a gradient and or solid areas of an image. Harder to spot them in visually busy areas of the image. But they are there.

Rather large 'artifact'. Or perhaps a plain old ufo.

So show me these same artifacts in other images in the sky area then. There are not many and I think you would be hard pushed to find any.

How rare is it to have the same shaped artifact in the same area of the photo in two different images? I have provided links to 2 left hand camera images. Now, this might be a speck of dust on the lens, which is why I was trying to find a right camera image, but if it was dust then it would be in the same place on other left camera images of other scenes.

I'm not going to dig for you. While you're digging yourself, looking for black dot UFOs in Mars pics, post them as you find them, just keep your eye on the sky, you'll run across many with black spots. Got Photoshop, yes, then you should not have a problem.

Now, let us know when you come across more of these. Now, this pic is interesting.

Maybe Mars is watching us?

I don't think that the rover is on Mars. Probably somewhere in the desert in Texas or California or other.

Maybe you ask the NASA supporters to prove the spacecraft went to Mars and the rovers are there.

If you look at the 'cleaning events' which happened to the MER rovers, you would deduce the wind was really quite strong. At least, it would need a strong wind to clean off those surfaces which generated the electricity so thoroughly. However, we all know that the wind on Mars is NOT strong at all. So, how does that happen on Mars? We have the makings of a conspiracy theory here, dont we?
