These photographs (PSP_006154_1345 and ESP_031036_1345) were taken by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) HiRISE Camera on 18 November 2007 and 10 March 2013 respectively.

NASA describes them as "Center of Soviet Mars 3 Landing Ellipse" and "Could This Be the Soviet Mars 3 Lander?" respectively.

NASA speculates that they may have photographed the Soviet Mars 3 Lander Parachute, Heat Shield, Retro Rocket and Lander.
Soviet Mars 3 Lander: Lander?

"Together, this set of features and their layout on the ground provide a remarkable match to what is expected from the Mars 3 landing, but alternative explanations for the features cannot be ruled out. Further analysis of the data and future images to better understand the 3-dimensional shapes may help to confirm this interpretation." - Alfred McEwen (11 April 2013) NASA

I downloaded the JP2's to produce the enhanced images of these anomalies.

My YouTube Video featuring these anomalies:



As discussed in this video, the Heat Shield reminds me of what I think are similar objects in another YouTube video I did some time ago:

Could these anomalies be the Soviet Mars 3 Lander or something else?

At least NASA identifies these as unnatural objects, WOW!

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!
