Well, they are not shaped like towers in any way. They have more of a cylindrical appearance, with the bulk of the width laid out horizontally. They do appear fairly consistent in shape and size and as far as the distance is concerned, in relation to each other, it looks ballpark. I wouldn't call them towers though, seems like a stretch, but an interesting anomaly anyway.

The three objects are most likely yardangs. They are not perfectly aligned but a very close approximation. The quality of the image is insufficient to pick out detailed features. Enlarged the image begins to pixelate. The darkesrt region - the shadow - cast by the yardangs/"towers" - are similar but not perfectly uniforrm. However the three protrusions are still interesting and suggestive.

Ugh! :( To quote Yogi Berra,

It's like déjà vu all over again.

I am really not enthused about this "find." The original video caught my attention because it is about Mars. Upon watching it and seeing that it is in Spanish, I realized that the two years of Spanish I had in high school, oh so long ago, were nowhere to be found in my memory. So I posted it for completeness sake of the space news, and just titled it "Hmmm..."

After seeing that it received a couple of responses, I saw a second article that referenced the video. So I went ahead and posted it here too. I do apologize for giving this more attention than it deserves.

I'm glad you posted it CQ, it's certainly relevant, regardless of the interpretation. :)

Thank you to everyone who has stuck by the YouTube channel and to all of our admins and forum users here on the channel.   They really have kept the website current while I have been busy taking care of things in my personal life.   I promised that the next video would be a long one and have a LOT to look at.  You can get lost in these Gigapans and I really hope that you do!  I spent a lot of time stitching these together and making sure that they were the best quality that I could get them.  SOL 1448 really has been a goldmine for anomaly hunters and those people who are just hobbiest.  I really hope you enjoy this one and expect much more to come from the latest batches of images!
