Description

"An unearthed NASA image of Mars has captured a strange object in the distance, which some have suggested was a jellyfish-like being or mechanical device.

NASA's Curiosity rover, which has been investigating whether Mars could have supported microbial life for the last 14 years, snapped the image on August 20, 2023 at around 6.27pm ET.

It shows the dusty Martian landscape with rocky hills and large mountains.  

However, the panorama also revealed a small figure in the left corner that appeared to have a large black body perched atop two spindly legs.

Fueling speculation that NASA’s rover had captured something moving across Mars, images taken of the same area less than a minute earlier showed no sign of the mysterious figure. 

Moreover, the photo with the object was the last image posted on NASA's website for that day. The next picture from Curiosity was taken nearly two hours later with the camera pointed in a different direction."

The before and after photos are both in the Daily Mail article. Does look very suspicious and hard to think what else it could be, based on the landscape.
