12 months.

Jack Horkheimer, host of the PBS show "Star Gazer," called the event "the moon, the lord of the rings and heart of the lion eclipse."

Tonight's event will be the last total lunar eclipse until Dec. 20, 2010. Last year there were two.

Great.

So you admit, that "it" looks like "aliens in movies".
Well, this certainly a good reason to think that it is a ROCK Laughing

The striking difference with the movies is that pictured on Mars species are different, not a single intelligent race for each planet as we used to see in the movies!

Yeh, I saw the Old Man the year after it plopped off. I like the "Moe of the Mountains" . Did you come up with that? Id cc it for tee shrits. New Hampsterites often have a rod up their asses so they could use a little good natured funning.

Not exactly Monkey Head Rock is a feature in the Illinois Garden of the Gods that was named long ago. Other features include the the camel back and the anvil

Last summer while standing on this outcropping

I was with a couple from St Louis and he pointing out the monkey head to her. She said it looked more like Moe than a monkey.

Now I've been going to the Garden since I was 13, including a fall off of one of the faces when I was 16, and I've been familiar with the monkey name for almost 40 years, but Moe Rock stuck a chord and I referred to it as Moe Rock when I camped and hiked the area there for a week last November.

Moe of the Mountain?---catchy but no--there are no mountains in Illinois. They aren't even big hills in Illinois---just some outcroppings of rock here and there.

Some pretty nice Images of GotG here

Sure.

I wish you guys had 3D glasses.

Have you ever seen human size head, curved naturally of rock, in any of Earth museums? No, you have not, period.

Although the earth is pretty much known, and has been excavated too.
The four heads on Mars found, although the observation has covered just tenth of square mile!

the devils staircase, the rhino in the basalt, Dragon Rock in Taiwan, the "Underwater City" there are hundreds of them . Its all a matter of lighting and how the backlighting is done. I remember when I was a kid, there was a town nearby named Reading Pa, where some busha saw the Virgin MAryon her Fridgerator. It was called "Our Lady of Amana".
Imagination, lighting, all work together in convincing you of the tooling of these sculptures.

Mars has a pretty harsh wind erosion climate, so Ill bet that the sculpture has been eroded and now sits there with humanlike features. Why human?

Old or New?

There's a biker bar in Old Shawneetown that ain't bad, but then I'm somewhat prejudiced as one of my grandfathers was born in Shawneetown when there was only one.

However, if human entertainment is required, you can always go coed watching in Carbondale. Taint bad, but then I'm kinda partial to watching coeds.

As for faces in the wall, or on mars, or in pieces of moldy bread, or rusty water towers, or in mountains there's an inherent feature of naked apes to see patterns in the random. One of the most common patters seen are human faces, Jesus, Virgin Mary, and Moe Szyslak---I mean does Spongebob Squarepants look even remotely human? And he was created by the hand of man.

Any creature with large brain will have a round head, like we have.

Any developed creature will have two eyes, necessary to see the depth of space.

Any developed creature will have one mouth, and teeth.

So you always will have, round head, two eyes and a mouth.
Vuala!!! You always will have humanlike alians!!!

I twice lived in Carbondale. The first time, 1973-76, i worked at Doctors' Hospital, and lived on the north side of town. Later, i moved to Alto Pass (more or less) on the Bald Knob Road on the other side of 127.

Several years later, i returned to Carbondale, and was employed at SIU for somewhat over four years, and lived in various places--an apartment on Cedar Creek Road, a house north of the Giant City blacktop, and finally, a trailer in a trailer park off Pleasant Hill Road.

One of my friends of many years also worked at the University, and on his day's off in good weather, we would just drive around campus, and especially the apartment complexes and trailer courts off Grand Avenue. Of course, we were simply admiring the landscaping.

I find this a much more interesting discussion that this joker's delusions about the state of the plastic arts on a nearby planet.

The Poll looks better
20% consider the proof of Martian civilization plausible!

80% do not.

Just about the same as those who consider a Terran civilization plausible.

I love these absolutes, like you actually know what youre talking about. Is this the extrasense guide to extraterrestrial sentience?

I think that youve anthropomorphized everything way too much.

Its still an eroded concretion with clear evidence of spherical laminae.

Which one?
I have seen at least three thought provoking images.
If it were just one strange object, we could chalk it as randomly formed by elements.

But more than three such unusual objects, on less than a square mile - must give anybody a pause.

Shocked
