		<description>Found a site that is all about Mars Anomaly Research: http://marsanomalyresearch.com/

They even look at one of the first images from Phoenix and &quot;prove&quot; NASA has doctored the pictures to remove objects from the sky, and has this little gem of a quote:

&quot;I suspect that, what ever the Phoenix mission will ultimately reveal publicly, it is something that has been decided upon long before the Phoenix craft ever set sail for Mars and has nothing to do with what ever is really going on with Phoenix on Mars. If they are smart, they will at least make out like it is revealing the presence of water ice in the soil and, if they are smarter, they may even throw in a little microbial life to sweeten the pot and turn the corner. To do this, they can just bounce their desired processed data here on Earth off of the orbiting Mars satellite with the appropriate signatures and codes and no scientists here on Earth end receiving them will be the wiser.&quot;</description>

		<description>The white object has come up in the press conferences each time. They don&#039;t know what it is, but they will be doing higher resolution images over the coming days.</description>
