A photo from the Mars Curiosity rover posted to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory website has the Internet buzzing about the

But if there is life on Mars, this image isn't evidence of it, one expert tells The Huffington Post. Dr. Seth Shostak, senior astronomer and director of the Center for SETI Research, thinks that it's all in the eyes -- or, brain, rather -- of the beholder.

"The fact that so many people are adept at playing 'Where’s Waldo?' with rover photos is a testament to our brain’s ability to pick out creatures in the visual landscape," he told HuffPost. "It’s a talent that helped our ancestors avoid predators or catch prey, but it’s a poor strategy in the hunt for extraterrestrial life."

Yes, the human brain is hard-wired to look for patterns, meaning and even faces in images. It's a phenomenon called

Although it's hard to tell exactly what the first (

) lady of Mars is made of without examining it, Shostak says that it's probably a rock. (Hey, it could have been dust or dirt.)

"I know that this may disappoint those who are convinced otherwise, but just because it looks like a duck is hardly proof of ducky-ness -- or in this case, evidence that a miniature version of the Statue of Liberty is welcoming NASA hardware to Mars," Shostak said.

Australian man involved in a shark attack beats shark to death with his own severed leg

Maroochydore, Queensland, Australia - At 5:40 am local time on Thursday morning, an alarm came about a sharkattack in Maroochydore, Australia. An earlybird surfer, a local 42-year old man had made it to shore was missing a leg and appeared to have lost litres of blood in the water. Medical attention was swiftly at the scene and managed to rush the man to the Sunshine Coast hospital within 20 minutes. The man drifted in and out of conciousness for the duration of the ambulance ride, but was able to recount some shocking details about what had happened to him.



One of the emergency workers was interviewed by Sunshine Coast Daily and had this to say:

"The man began telling us about the sharkattack, how he had been sitting on the surfboard and howthe shark had gotten a hold of his leg, ripped it off...and then he told us something we couldn't believe. The man apparently grabbed his own severed leg and beat the Shark with such a force that it died."

At first the animal control people at the beach couldn't find the shark using their helicopter, but then upon going out to where the sharkattack had taken place by boat, they made the startling discovery. The shark lay dead in the water, bloody, apparently killed from blunt trauma to the face, its eyes were utterly destroyed. The surfer had indeed killed the shark with his own leg.



The story is still developing and will be updated as further information arise.
