Online UFO hunter and self-appointed space journalist Joe White claims to have stumbled upon the crumbling remains of a long-forgotten alien Sphinx statue on Mars.
He presented his bizarre claim to the public after combing through hundreds of NASA photos taken by the space agency’s Curiosity Rover.
The bizarre rock formation in question at first glance appears to be reminiscent of an ancient Egyptian Sphinx statue, sparking fierce debate online. He shared the image online on his YouTube channel under the title “GIANT 200 ft SPHINX found on MARS”.
The Sphinx is a mythical creature part man part lion and stands on the west bank of the Nile on Giza Plateau.
Mr White has now claimed he found its extraterrestrial twin on the dusty surface of the Red Planet.
Mr White said: “Is this irrefutable evidence of a civilization on Mars in the past that we have been looking for?
“It looks like a Sphinx from the front, back and side in multiple images. What more could you ask for?
