They may have found water on the planet Mars but that’s not all they’ve discovered. There’s also a giant penis up there. Yes, it’s true.
The Huffington Post reports that Nasa’s Mars Exploration Rovers have accidentally drawn a massive willy on the red planet.
Spirit and Opportunity, the two rovers, were sent to Mars nine years ago to explore the surface of the planet. Since they landed on Mars, the vehicles have driven over more than 10km of the planet’s surface. Unfortunately, the programming on the vehicles means that they tend to spin in tight circles and, as the above picture illustrates, this can have hilarious consequences.
The giant penis on Mars was discovered by a Reddit user who went on to share it with the rest of the world. The picture quickly went viral and Nasa’s website was crashed with visitors who were keen to hear an explanation of just how the penis got on Mars in the first place and see if the picture was real (It is, by the way. Nasa have it on their site).
So there you have it. There’s no aliens on Mars, just a giant willy and a bit of water.
