SPECIAL EDITION | The Mars and Phobos Monoliths Revisited

My friend Brian Cory Dobbs in the US suggested I do this video featuring the Mars Monolith and the Phobos Monolith discovered at roughly the same time, follow his work over on his YouTube Channel:

https://www.youtube.com/@briancorydobbs

NOTE: I did not discover these monoliths, all credit is due to the researcher/s that did.

Two photographs are analyzed here, one taken by the MGS and the other by the MRO:

SP255103 and PSP_009342_1725.

The Monolith on Phobos measures approximately 35 to 38 metres wide and the Monolith on Mars measures approximately 5 metres wide by 3 to 5 metres tall.

Why are these Monoliths on Mars and Phobos? The Film, 2001: A Space Odyssey comes to mind here. Buzz Aldrin also speaks about the Monolith on Phobos. Is history or ancient knowledge being hidden from us? Are these Monoliths Markers left behind by an Ancient Civilization that once lived in our Solar System?

As always, until we get to see these anomalies up close and personal, I can only speculate as to what these objects might be.

New Diverse Artifacts Discovered North-West of Aonia Mons on Mars

The photograph analyzed here (ESP_030915_1290) was acquired by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on 01 March 2013 and is described as ‘Infrared-Distinct Crater.’

Here I feature new anomalies I discovered at a site North-West of Aonia Mons in a region of Mars called Aonia Terra.

Anomalies at this site include: huge megalithic blocks as well as large discs and domes, strange geometric depictions (one that looks like an eye), a large sarcophagus-like block, a huge hole in the surface, hangar/outpost-like objects, dolmen-like structures/ruins and other misc. items, some that have a metallic-like appearance.

As always, until we get to see these anomalies up close and personal, I can only speculate as to what these objects might be.

COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE | My 2024/25 Mars Anomalies Methodology

I received a number of requests to put together a comprehensive guide covering topics like:

i) How do I find anomalies on Mars
ii) How do I process NASA photographs
iii) How do I use image upscaling software
iv) What software tools/apps I use

This guide is the step-by-step methodology I use, you may follow any other methodology that works for you (this is just an example).

Software tools/apps I use:

i) Google Earth Pro (includes Mars)
ii) NASA’s HiView Image Viewer (JP2)
iii) Paint Shop Pro (any other image processing software will also work, e.g. GIMP, Photoshop, etc.)
iv) Topaz Labs Gigapixel (you can use any image upscaling software that works best for you)

These are the software tools/apps I use, you can chose any other tools/apps that suite your requirements (this is just an example).

REDUX | The Relics of Von Kármán on Mars

The photograph analyzed here (ESP_021868_1165) was acquired by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on 27 March 2011 and is described as ‘Rocky Terrain Sample.’

Here I feature anomalies I discovered at a site North of Von Kármán in a region of Mars called Argyre Planitia.

Anomalies at this site include: megalithic blocks (between approx. 10 to 15 m in size) as well as small discs (approx. 5 m in size), a large hole in the surface and other odds and ends.

As always, until we get to see these anomalies up close and personal, I can only speculate as to what these objects might be.

Joe McMoneagle (Former CIA) Discusses My Mars Discoveries with Jesse Michels

In a recent interview with Joe McMoneagle (“The CIA’s Remote Viewer No. 1”), Joe McMoneagle and Jesse Michels discuss amongst other topics, my Mars discoveries, in particular the “Boat”-Shaped anomaly and the “Web” covered Cavern anomaly I featured in the past on my YouTube channel and Blog.

McMoneagle briefly discusses each anomaly in the interview. This Blog and Video is meant to provide clarity and more detailed information regarding these anomalies as McMoneagle makes some critical mistakes regarding my discoveries in the interview with Michels.

NOTE: McMoneagle presents my Mars discoveries without briefing/consulting me beforehand and does not credit me with the discoveries in the interview with Michels. McMoneagle used my upscaled images of these anomalies without my permission. Numerous attempts at getting Michels to credit me for my work have failed.

Transcript:

McMoneagle: “Here is a cavern and it’s got all this wire stuff on the top … it’s a sub-terranean cavern, you cannot see into it but it’s very deep … that’s wiring. Here’s the interesting part: when we first caught this on Mars there was a bright red light right here. That’s gone out since we caught it. I actually have a photo of the light … bright red light …”

Note: This particular photograph is black and white, no colour photograph of this anomaly is available. As far as my research shows there is only one hi-definition (JP2) photograph of this site. The MRO takes photographs in black and white format. Sometimes NASA add simulated colour.

Transcript:

McMoneagle: “Let me show you something else … there you go … that’s real … that’s three feet long and big round … and it’s got buttons on it and a rotating thing there … that’s laying on Mars man … what they’d do is that they’d say Bu$$ $hit, that’s not off of Mars, well I have the negative. You have the negative? Yeah. They can say whatever the Hell they want. You can back that up with the JPL guys? Yeah. So, I will send you that … and I’ll send you something else very similar. You got to understand something: you got to know exactly what negative you’re asking for to get the picture …”

Note: This anomaly is not three feet long, it is actually 16 metres long. The MRO photographs are in digital format, no film is used and there are no negatives.

My YouTube video featuring: ‘Joe McMoneagle (Former CIA) Discusses My Mars Discoveries with Jesse Michels:’

My Mars discoveries:

Following are my YouTube Video’s and Blog Posts showing these anomalies where actually discovered by me – note the upscaled images I made are the same as those McMoneagle presents, claiming these are his discoveries.

As always, until we get to see these anomalies up close and personal, I can only speculate as to what this anomaly might be.

Anomalies Photographed North of Fontana on Mars

The photograph analyzed here (ESP_014049_1200) was acquired by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on 26 July 2009 and is described as ‘Intercrater Knobs and Pits South West of Argyre.’

Here I feature anomalies I discovered at a site North of Fontana in a region of Mars called Aonia Planum. Situated at this site are two almost perfectly shaped dome-like items, a strange rectangular object that appears to have a row of parallel bracing/vent-like slots on the top and a huge square slab/block.

As always, until we get to see these anomalies up close and personal, I can only speculate as to what these objects might be.

Latest Set of Anomalies at Site South of Pai on Mars

The photograph analyzed here (ESP_086243_1370) was acquired by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on 19 December 2024 and is described as ‘USGS Dune Database Entry Number 0380-426 Monitoring.’

Here I feature anomalies I discovered at a site South of Pai in a region of Mars called Noachis Terra. NASA has photographed this several times due to the dune movement – each new photograph reveals new anomalies. A site close by in Proctor has been photographed several times too due to dune movement there.

As always, until we get to see these anomalies up close and personal, I can only speculate as to what these objects might be.

Outlines of Possible Ancient Structures on Mars

Two anomalies are featured here, both showing rectangular outlines of possible ancient structures on Mars.

The first anomaly:

The photograph analyzed here (E1000462) was acquired by NASA’s Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) on 2001-11-04T09:17:23.04 and is described as ‘Material within crater at 28.4 N 332.4 W.’

The anomaly is located at a site near Cassini in a region of Mars called Arabia Terra. The outline of the rectangular feature measures approximately 1800 m x 2000 m. The anomaly is highly eroded and partially covered in sand.

The second anomaly:

The photograph analyzed here (B05_011413_1790_XN_01S113W) was acquired by NASA’s MRO CTX on 2009-01-01T19:28:56.378 and is described as ‘Ride-along with HiRISE.’

The anomaly is located at a site on the edge of Pavonis Mons. The outline of the rectangular feature measures approximately 600 m x 700 m. It appears liquid flowed through the feature, from left to right, destroying both opposing corners and moving the upper-left edge away towards the top.

As always, until we get to see these anomalies up close and personal, I can only speculate as to what these objects might be.

Eye-Shaped Anomaly in Moreux

The photograph analyzed here (ESP_086216_2220) was acquired by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on 17 December 2024 and is described as ‘Moreux Crater Bedform Monitoring.’

Here I feature anomalies I discovered at a site in Moreux in a region of Mars called Protonilus Mensae. The feature anomaly looks like a depiction of an eye about seven metres across and it is surrounded by huge megalithic blocks in the surrounding area.

As always, until we get to see these anomalies up close and personal, I can only speculate as to what these objects might be.

REDUX | Strange Blocks and Discs Discovered East of Russell

The photograph analyzed here (ESP_014296_1255) was acquired by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on 14 August 2009 and is described as ‘Gullies with Dark Channels.’

Here I feature anomalies I featured some years ago. In this presentation I show these anomalies once again, re-upscaled and in higher detail. This site is East of Russell located in a region of Mars called Noachis Terra.

As always, until we get to see these anomalies up close and personal, I can only speculate as to what these objects might be.
