Pyramid' found on Mars could link to ancient ALIEN civilisation

ALIENS?: The pyramid appears to be in perfect formation – just like the ones in Egypt [NASA/YOUTUBE]

The bizarre finding was captured in images taken aboard Nasa's Curiosity Rover.

In grainy photos, a pyramid-like shape can be seen among other craters resembling the great tombs built by the ancient Egyptians 4000 years ago.

And extraterrestrial experts have jumped on the idea that it must have also been built byintelligent life in generations before us.

Investigators on YouTube channel ParanormalCrucible have argued that the "near perfect design and shape" is not a "trick of light and shadow".

The pyramid, which is only the size of a "car", is claimed to be the capstone of an even larger pyramid beneath the surface.

They claim “there is good reason to suspect that the actual size of the Mars pyramid is much larger given the amount of debris and sand around it”.

The discovery is thought to be the latest in a long string of "ancient civilisation-like" discoveries – adding to a long list of ruins and pillars spotted on the distant planet.

But many believe it is a conspiracy theory too far – and a coincidental formation of rocks.

One YouTube user said: "You can find stones of pyramidal shape naturally on Earth."

And another wrote: "Its not even a perfect pyramid,its lopsided, probably a natural rock formation [SIC]"
