Self-illuminating Amundsen-Scott type dome inside Martian crater was created by RaptorZN2000

This image (G21_026346_2001_XN_20N286W) was taken by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) Context Camera (CTX) on 2012-03-10T09:48:08.974.

NASA describes this as an image as "Ride-along with HiRISE."

I discovered what appears to be self-illuminating sphere in a dark crater on Mars. It illuminates not just itself but the area directly underneath it. I estimate the diameter of this object to be approximately 200 to 250 metres.

The sphere does not extend above the crater rim, thus receiving no direct sun-light. If it did stick out above the crater rim a shadow would be cast on the surface directly next to the crater.

I used NASA's image viewer to the left of the page to view these anomalies. The object is located just under the centre of the image, slightly to the left.

For further information about this anomaly check out my Blog post: mars.raptorzone.co.za/2018/03/04/self-illuminating-sphere-in-martian-crater/

Is this a natural, round bulge in the centre of the crater or a structure, perhaps another dome base or large disc-like UFO?

The other sphere or dome (discovered by someone else, not sure who) featured in this video (Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station dome):

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!
