REAL LIFE IMITATES FED: IS THERE A RAT ON MARS?
by Hazed
Marsrats have infested Fed Dataspace's version of the red planet ever since it was colonised by humans. But now a new picture taken by the Curiosity rover seems to show a real life rodent on Mars!
Except... of course it isn't. Common sense tells us it's just a collection of pebbles that kind of look like some kind of creature with four legs and a tail. But that doesn't stop excitable people who like to believe strange things from seeing some kind of live animal, just as they pictures of their chosen deity on tortillas.

In other Curiosity news, scientists examining pictures taken by the rover have found more proof that there used to be water on Mars. Rocks display tell-tale signs of having been carried for a long distance by water, just as they do on Earth.
