Default Syrtis Major
between 1998 and 2001 i was taken up by a fascination of the images being returned to earth by malin space science systems, mars global surveyor.

i looked at every image they had. this was not a scientific study, i did this out of fascination, and out of some kind of an obsession i can not describe.

i did not keep records. i should have. i found several things.

this used to be in the archive for february 2000. it is no longer there.
they took it away.

mars moc, narrow angle image gallery, mars chart 13, syrtis major...

this particular object was center to north east in the image.

it contained the following from north to south,

there appeared to be a tower on the south end of a creator. running down the slope of the tower and the south rim of the creator was what appeared to be steps which became a wall of a complex at the base of the creators rim.

there was what appeared to be a platform, that had a tower at its center and two small 5 sided pyramids just immediately below it, yet the same level in the photograph.

around the tower and pyramids were round holes, which were like cave entrances, but they were facing upwards like vents. if memory serves there were seven vents in symmetry with each other within a platform

this all formed sort of a round plateau, surrounded by the wall that ran back up to the side of the creator into the tower.

below this was a series of five tubes that ran into the ground at the base of the platform. the eastern most one to the left was exposed. i could follow it running east and south of the plateau. at one point it turned south, and at this point the tube appeared to be as exploded opened. at this point the tube continued south.

at the point where the tube appeared exploded was a rill in the surface continuing east. following this trajectory i found what appeared to be a small cylinder that had impacted with a north south ridge that ran east of the complex.

i did not keep records.
back then i was not thinking of, or did not care for the opinion of others.
perhaps i still do not.

i just hate being lied to.
it might be egotistical and selfish....
but it insults my intelligence!

how dare they take this away!
they have done this many times since.
so much so that i have grown tired of looking at any nasa images.

i find beautiful, and wondrous things...
and they take them away.
