A quick look at the picture is enough to give birth to an immediate belief that it is an entrance that leads to a cache on Mars, or “maybe a door to a completely different world, to inspire a science fiction movie or even two films,” according to what “Al Arabiya.net” read in a brief report on the image, published by the website. Australian ScienceAlert. As in the video below, more information.
In its report on the image, the site said: “If what appears in it is not a door or an entrance, and it is certainly not a door or an entrance, so it is a fracture caused by some kind of pressure on a rocky shape” or an earthquake, as was recorded on the red planet on 4 This May, scientists are still working to determine its exact center.
“Science Alert” mentioned what completely vented the enthusiasm of the enthusiasts, saying that the rock formation similar to a door or entrance “may appear full-size in our imagination only, because its visible height is not more than a few centimeters or inches, despite the difficulty of confirming the image taken of a known environment. In the name of the distinctive Greenheugh Pediment on Mars,” as he put it.

Whoever examines the picture of the entrance may remember the ruins of Mada’in Saleh and Al-Ula in Saudi Arabia, as well as “Petra” in Jordan as well, which is real, and not from the suggestion of the imagination. As for the image from Mars, it is nothing but cracks in the rocks and ripples due to erosion. Shadows also played an important role, making the “shape” look like man-made formations on Earth.
