Curiosity photographed a mysterious bright glow on Mars

Curiosity captured an abnormally bright glow on the surface of Mars . The photographs show a vertical strip of bright light, which seems to burst from the depths of the Red Planet.

The image from the navigation camera (Navcam) clearly shows a bright spot in the upper corner of the image. It is most likely due to the collision of cosmic rays with a light detector or the brilliance of sunlight on the rocks.


American ufologist Scott Waring, who first posted these photos in his online edition, suggested that these were signs of a UFO presence.
Waring writes that this is clearly not a sun glare, just like this glow cannot be an artifact of a shoot.

This is not a glare from the sun. Look closely at the bottom of the light. 100% indiction it is from the surface. Sure NASA could go and investigate it.

Justin Maki, one of the laboratory staff, said that they observe similar phenomena almost every week. He also adds that usually they can quickly determine the likely source of a similar glow based on images from two cameras. But in this case, it’s probably harder to say something because of the limited view of the second camera.

Doug Allison of NASA, a man who would very much like to find signs of life on Mars, suggested a more likely solution. He tweeted that "the glow is a consequence of cosmic rays, and not signs of little green men."

High energy particle fluxes are a problem for technology. It is likely that the beam hit Curiosity and killed a piece of data from the camera, as the light appeared only on the camera on the right side, and not on the left, which made the next image at the same time.

PS thought that Zelenyikot will publish. But, perhaps, he simply considered this note not worth attention)
