They found the Gateway to the Past on Mars!

Also as seen in Discovery, it's the Guardian Of Forever.

Reading the Post tile I was thinking you were going to say they found a Twinkie. :)

Scientists are actually saying that is a t-rex skull. If you know any Science at all you now that Mars was Earth before Earth was Earth. And, the dinosaurs lived there before they moved here.
I thought they were saying it is a wheel the aliens used to build the Pyramids.

I thought stuff from space generally crashed into planets pretty spectacularly. This one though obviously did "land" as there's zero sign of a crater (any minor debris could have blown away in Mars' thin atmosphere, but there'd be at least a bit of a dent, wouldn't there??). No, given its angular external shape I reckon this is a nut that's fallen off a MASSIVE Mars explorer from some other civilisation. Of course we don't know the scale; maybe this is not a view down a telescope but down a microscope, and it's really really tiny.

You're thinking of "landed" as in how an aircraft lands. But they are using the word in a more technical sense. When you think about it, "landed" simply means it ended up on the surface.
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Yeah, I really messed up that Star Trek reference. My Trekkie points have taken a hit. :laugh:

Exactly... that's my point (badly made, obviously!) This looks more like it's been carefully placed down, not crashed at thousands of mph.

How can you tell how hard the rock landed? All we see is rock sitting on the surface. What's your indication of how hard the impact was? Maybe this rock was a thousand times bigger, and this is just a fragment.

A gateway to the past is dangerous enough. But what if its a gateway to Hell? In which case we're all DOOMed!

If it is a one-way function "gateway to", can we start sending the team to make it all better? The Googalfinchians, hotel/casino developers, tic-tok influencers, MBA, project managers, etc.
