Before you guys write this off as just a rock shadow, please take a close look at the legs of the spider. I see a bulge area on each leg and also pinchers on the ends of the legs. also I believe it lives in the trap-door tunnel to the right. if anything survived the disaster then it would be insects and spiders underground. what do you think???

Hi,
I don't think it's a shadow, but the legs don't look like earth spiders. It doesn't seem to have a three dimensional aspect. Could it be a strange opening in the rock? Or, a nasty-looking Martian spider clinging onto a rock. Maybe we can contact NASA for an explanation. (Sorry for the sarcasm.)

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!
