An image taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover appear to show a space lizard, apparently on ‘high alert’ (according to UFO buffs) sitting among some rocks on Mars.
UFO Sightings Daily reported the sighting after studying the raw image from NASA, and decided that it was some kind of lizard creature
This latest life-on-Mars sighting comes just weeks after some users reported seeing a space crab on the planet’s surface in another NASA photo.
Rt.com reports:
“The creature looks like a lizard, but with a short tail. I tried hard to get a close up of it. The head is shiny and looks like it has an outer shell on its head, but its body, arms and legs look like they do not have an outer shell, but a skin,” writes the website’s contributor Scott C. Waring.

Later UFO fans claimed they saw an alien “woman with breasts and long hair,” who is “attentively watching” the Mars Curiosity rover from a distance.
Conspiracy theories also appeared around another of the raw images taken by Curiosity, which showed an alleged pyramid on the Red Planet.
“Due to the size of the object about the scale of a small car, I would theorize that the artifact is either the capstone of a much larger pyramid possibly buried deep beneath the surface or perhaps a marker stone,” said the Paranormal Crucible on YouTube, which speculates on extraterrestrial activity.
These ‘alien relics’ in most cases can be explained by a vision defect called pareidolia, a psychological phenomenon of noticing a significant pattern in unexpected places. The ‘man in the moon’ or ‘moon rabbit’ are common examples of such an illusion.
