I really hope this is of interest if so I would greatly appreciate your letting me know asap.

I have recently taken an interest in the anomalies and such like from the Mars Rover Photos.

I decided to play a game of spot the difference with photos taken at the same location , my theory being simple, if something was present in one photo and not in another taken at the same location then it must have “moved”.

I have found something very interesting and shows that there is life on mars, not a big creature by any means but it does appear to have legs and look like an insect. I have called it a “cricket”.

In this photo http://marsrover.nasa.gov/gallery/all/2/n/1861/2N291579518EFFB0OAP1985L0M1.JPG: in the lower right hand quarter is a small area of sand and perched on this is my “cricket”.

In this photo http://marsrover.nasa.gov/gallery/all/2/n/1861/2N291579518EFFB0OAP1985R0M1.JPG the cricket is missing.

At first I thought that the upright pipe might be obscuring it but if you relate its position to the rock above it (shaped a bit like the star-trek emblem) it is definitely missing therefore it has moved.

The address for the raw photos is http://marsrover.nasa.gov/gallery/all/spirit_n1861.html

Can we name the cricket Robert after me please.

Kind Regards

Rob Clay
