"Unsealed: Alien files," exposing the biggest secret on planet earth.
In August 2012, NASA's curiosity rover landed on the surface of the red planet.
It was the most ambitious mission of its kind in the history of space exploration, a $2.
5 billion project that many hoped could answer the ancient question is there life on Mars? The curiosity rover is essentially a moving laboratory, and we can collect evidence off of Mars that we've never been able to collect before.
But the curiosity rover is only the latest explorer of a program that began in 1971.
Since then, 16 probes have successfully reached Mars, some returning crucial evidence that the red planet once or may still be able to support life.
In 1975, viking orbiter showed geological evidence of rivers, lakes, and oceans.
These images painted the picture of an ancient Mars that may have once held an abundance of alien life.
When they discovered that there was at one time possibly water on the surface of Mars, that blew open the door of possibility for there being extraterrestrial life in our solar system, let alone the universe.
Could Mars, in fact, have been much more like earth than we once believed? The first color photographs of the martian surface were taken by a rover in 2004.
The images revealed that the red planet was anything but.
One of the things that shocked people in 2004 when NASA and jpl released those photos was this wasn't the dead planet that we'd been led to believe with a brown sky and brown dusty surface, that when you look at this bluish sky and when you look at the surface of the martian ground, it very much resembled the surface of earth.
Could our exploration of this alien planet uncover the ultimate extraterrestrial secret, that intelligent life once or perhaps still exists on Mars and that the evidence has been right before our eyes? "Unsealed" case file: The skull of Mars.
In 2004, NASA landed two rovers on the surface of Mars, spirit and opportunity.
They were sent to explore opposite sides of the red planet, and while opportunity sent back many interesting photos, it was spirit which captured what some believe is our first glimpse at an alien face.
In this picture, we see a shape sitting on the ground.
It has familiar features--eyes, a nose, even teeth.
Could this be, as some believe, a humanoid skull buried in the martian soil? Alien theorists believe that this could be evidence that either humans had visited Mars at some point in the past or that some other humanoid alien race has existed there for thousands of years.
Is this object, in fact, an ancient fossil, and what could be buried alongside it? Coming up next, the search for answers could reveal not only evidence of an alien being on the surface of Mars but an entire civilization.
This is "unsealed: Alien files," exposing the biggest secret on planet earth.
Welcome back to "unsealed: Alien files.
" Photographs of Mars reveal alien landscapes remarkably similar to earth and unexplained images that look terrifyingly human, but the biggest question remains--is there alien life on planet Mars? All the evidence points to the fact that Mars could have very well supported life in the past and maybe supports alien life to this very day.
July 25, 1976, the viking 1 orbiter photographs a martian terrain known as cydonia.
Of the many pictures taken that day, one would be seen as a sign that we may not be alone in the universe, a human face etched into the surface of Mars.
Well, the face on Mars doesn't resemble--it looks like a human face.
I mean, it's looking up at the stars, at the heavens, but it looks like a human face.
No mistaking it, and this thing has two eyes, a nose, a mouth.
It has something that looks like a headdress on it, and this face, by the way, is about 3 Miles top to bottom, chin to head to top of head and about two Miles across, so it's a very large object.
It's not small.
Alien theorists propose that the face of Mars could be a monument constructed by an ancient alien race, an invitation or a warning to visitors of Mars.
Skeptics say, "well, why would an alien race make something like this?" Well, who knows? It could be for a number of reasons.
It could be as a monument to--maybe they knew a cataclysm was coming and they wanted to--they wanted to leave something that would let people know that they were there, let somebody know that they were there.
It could be as simple as art.
I mean, why do we create art, why do we create sculpture? Shockingly, the most recent images of the face reveal nothing more than a Mountain of sand.
Was the face a mere illusion, or could it be that the face was purposely destroyed using explosives on board the Mars observer? A NASA statement from August 21, 1993, reports that NASA forever "lost contact with observer over the martian surface" followed what was believed to a fuel rupture.
The next time the face was photographed in 1996, its features had vanished.
It may be mere coincidence, but some believe this is just the most recent evidence of a cover-up to protect the truth.
Alien theorists believe that this could be evidence that either humans had visited Mars at some point in the past or that some other humanoid alien race has existed there for thousands of years.
In fact, several photos from Mars have revealed what many believe are manufactured objects and signs of a ruined civilization.
One of the discoveries was an object known as the ammo box.
Photographed by NASA's spirit rover, the origins of this seemingly metallic object remain a mystery.
The ammo box seems to be made of some sort of metal, and every edge meets at a 90-degree corner.
How's that possible if it's a natural formation? This and similar evidence have led theorists to believe that Mars may have been home to an ancient alien civilization, but could the ultimate discovery be an ancient city with a connection to our home planet? "Unsealed" case file--the pyramids of Mars.
Of all martian regions, none has been more rich with the possible proof of civilization than cydonia and the pyramids of Mars.
In the middle of this barren planet, there stand 3 structures that resemble almost exactly our pyramids in Egypt.
Indeed, the shape of the pyramid has been repeated on earth throughout multiple countries for millennia.
The connection between the pyramids of earth and these so-called pyramids of Mars could be seen as evidence of an extraterrestrial connection to the human race.
If these structures on Mars were manufactured by some sort of alien beings, what could that mean for our race? It could mean that we have neighbors who obviously thousands of years ago came here to visit us and left influences on our people and our cultures.
The largest of the martian monuments is known as the d&m pyramid.
It spans almost two Miles and stands half a mile tall.
Shockingly, the axis of the pyramid is nearly in alignment with the north-South axis of Mars just as the great pyramid of giza is aligned with the north-South axis of the earth, and yet even if the pyramids of Mars could be explained as natural, it would be difficult to explain why sitting near the base of the southernmost pyramid is a sphinx.
Coming up next, an intergalactic war and possible images of an alien being lead to the ultimate question--is a martian invasion in our future? Find out when we return.
This is "unsealed: Alien files," exposing the biggest secret on planet earth.
Welcome back to "unsealed: Alien files.
" Humanoid faces seen in the martian terrain, images of possible alien life, objects that seem to defy natural explanation.
The evidence of alien life on Mars raises questions about an advanced civilization and their mysterious disappearance.
Can the answer be found within pyramids eerily similar to ancient Egypt right down to the presence of a sphinx? The sphinx on Mars is a monolith that was discovered in 1997 by the pathfinder mission.
If you examine this photograph even for just a minute, it's very clear that you can see a defined head, body, and even arms.
It is a form remarkably like that of the great sphinx of giza with a head that appears to be decorated in an Egyptian headdress, and all of this within Miles of the so-called face of Mars.
When you think about an alien race building a giant face on the surface of their planet, some may laugh it off, and I always say, "well, why would you laugh it off?" Look at civilizations here on earth stretching back thousands of years.
You've got giant structures in the middle of Egypt, one of which just happens to be a very large face on the sphinx.
You've got other structures from other cultures that are being built that you can only see from the sky.
So when you look at those commonalities, you have to see maybe there's a connection between life 3,000, 4,000, 5,000 years ago here on earth and quite possibly a life starting on the planet of Mars.
If there truly was an ancient civilization on Mars, who knows how advanced they may have become before extinction? Could the ancient pyramids of Egypt have been constructed as a cultural link between the two societies, and if so, how did their society come to an end? Many theorize by the scientific advances that we're making studying the martian surface that in Mars' past that it's been hit multiple times by asteroids.
Now when you talk about huge asteroids striking a planetary surface, the effects of that are pretty detrimental.
Many believe that happened on Mars, maybe on a grander scale.
Instead of 10% of the world's life or the planet's life surviving that you had zero survivability.
Possible evidence of this catastrophic event can be found right on the surface of Mars.
Concentrated on one side of the planet are over 3,000 craters measuring 20 Miles in diameter.
If an asteroid a mile across were to hit the martian surface, it's estimated that that would have the impact and the force equivalent to a one-million-megaton nuclear weapon.
That is 10 million times the force of what was released at Hiroshima.
The debris raised by such an asteroid could block out the sun, effectively killing all life on the planet, but could there be another explanation for these enormous craters, one that points to a very advanced ancient civilization on Mars and a martian nuclear apocalypse? Ancient Roman records point to accounts of what was referred to as fire in the sky.
Both romans and babylonians named it for their God of war.
Was Mars once home of a violent and distant battle between an alien species, and could any survivors still be alive today? For years, we've been debating about what the martians might look like.
Science fiction gives us all kinds of different variations of what these aliens are, but in 2008, the spirit rover gave us our first clear picture which could show us who the martians are.
"Unsealed" case file: The creature of Mars.
In 2008, the Mars spirit rover transmitted a panorama back to earth from the west valley of Mars.
At first look, this photograph appears to merely be a stunning view of the martian terrain, but closer inspection exposes a chilling revelation, a humanoid figure seeming to walk just behind a Ridge.
It appears to have a head, a torso, even legs caught in mid stride.
Could this real photographic evidence be a creature captured alive on the surface of Mars? If this is truly a living creature, we could be looking at a post-apocalyptic martian survivor, a rare example of an extraterrestrial species still hiding on an alien planet.
You may think we'll never know, but if expert predictions are right, the invasion of Mars could be just around the corner.
Coming up next, the event that could put you face to face with an alien race.
