Mars Tracks and Tubes

Richard Buchli D.V.M. writes, “Tracks located on Mars are 86 miles long located at 19-52N 167 W would indicate a large machine moving along the surface. Natural causes are unlikely”.

The planet Mars makes its closest approach to Earth on January 27th when it’s 99.3 million km away; it won’t be this close again until 2012. Though this will be nothing like the opposition of August 2003, when Mars came within 56 million km. The planet peaks at magnitude -1.3 this month, just a little fainter than Sirius.

Dr. Richard Buchli writes, “At 25 35 S 47 20 W This is a real find of tubes system five miles wide and about half mile high. Cities, structures, and rivers could all be inside these tubes. Don’t you think the big tube is our most important find so far?”

Tubes can serve as a shelter from the severe environment of the lunar surface, with its meteorite impacts, high-energy UV radiation and energetic particles, and extreme diurnal temperature variations.
