  • A UFO expert spotted an alleged alien skull on Mars
  • Photo of the alleged skull was taken by NASA's Curiosity rover
  • The expert believes the photo proves the existence of an ancient race of Martians

A so-called UFO expert claimed to have spotted a fossilized alien skull in a photo taken by NASA on Mars. According to the expert, the photo proves that complex extraterrestrial beings once lived on the Red Planet.

Scott Waring, the owner of the blog ET Data Base, has been reporting about strange UFO and alien sightings on Mars using NASA’s archive photos. In his latest report, Waring claimed he saw the remains of an alien creature on Mars.

For his report, Waring referred to a photo taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover on SOL 410. The photo, which was posted on NASA’s Midnight Planet’s website, features a close-up image of the ground on Mars. Like the other photos taken by Curiosity, the SOL 410 image features rocks of different shapes scattered across the ground.

As Waring was examining the photo, he came across an object that he claims could be a fossilized skull of an alien. He said the strange object, which can be found at the center of the photo, was photographed near NASA’s rover.

After zooming in on the photo, Waring noted that the object had features similar to those of a skull. Although it had human-like facial features, the rear portion of the skull appeared elongated.

“I found an alien skull in one of the Curiosity rover photos in sol 410,” Waring stated in a blog post. “The skull has lots of detail...you can even see two large teeth in its wide open mouth. Its jaw and cheeks and eye ridges are well pronounced. The nose looks human-like, but wider and thicker on the top. The back of the head seems to have a part of the neck and head still attached to it.”

According to Waring, the photo captured by the Curiosity rover should be considered as definitive proof regarding the existence of an ancient race of aliens on Mars. However, due to the appearance of the alleged alien skull, Waring noted that it may have not died naturally.

“Awesome fossil find and is absolute proof that aliens once lived on Mars,” he stated. “But the fact that it died laying on the surface and its mouth wide open makes me think it died in terror or pain.”
