NOW HOW IN THE WORLD CAN THIS HAPPEN?? HERE IS A HARD SOLID LOOKING BALL SITTING ON ALL THIS STRATIFIED FLAKING FRAGILE ROCK. JUST DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO ME. NOTE: THIS IS ALSO THE SAME SOL (DAY) THAT CONTAINS WILL FARRAR's FAMOUS PITCHFORK (ANTENNA) IMAGE. THAT IMAGE , IN MY OPINION, IS THE NUMBER ONE ANOMALY EVER FOUND !

Hey Dude, I tried to get as close as I could to the sphere and this is what I found. It appears to be a helmet with the profile of a face (eye, nose, and mouth) facing toward the right. The helmet looks to have a checkerboard design in the areas you can see it, and on the very top of it is a gold looking button (it's sure not a pickelhaube). On what would be the back of the helmet is an oval-looking protrusion.
Being on the ground, it appears it could be a decapitated head, or a bust of some famous person, or last but not least, a ball to kick around if you hated this guy.....who knows. :lol:

thanks for the enlargement. I guess they could name it Wilson on mars. really seriously I don't know about the helmet thing but now I can see a tab with a ring thru it. I search all winter with my metal detector for civil war relics and this ball now looks like we sometimes find in camps that is a horse holder. the soldiers could quickly chain it to the bridle and the weight of the ball kept the horse from wandering off. this has taught me to enlarge these anomalies to the max. (I will watch the video that WILL made on this sphere and see if he mentioned a tab )

Imagine what we could do with a metal detector on Mars! I wonder why NASA didn't think of it?

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!
