Image: AI-generated (Midjourney) Originally photographed by the HiRISE camera aboard NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, the image shows part of the Valles Marineris region of Mars - an area characterized by the abundance of canyons and chasms dotted across the landscape.

More recently, however, a zoomed-in section of the image showing what appears to be a disc-shaped object embedded in the sediment at the end of a trench has been gaining attention online.

The image, it has been argued, is evidence of a UFO crash.

Scientists have long dismissed any such claims, instead favoring the more conventional explanation that this is simply part of the landscape and is a naturally occurring chasm.While it certainly does look as though there is a disc-shaped object embedded at the end of it, we tend to favor the official explanation in this particular case.

In all likelihood, the 'disc' is little more than a naturally occurring formation.
