DEFUNCT AQUATIC PARK

Report #007

9/2000 (orig post) - 1/22/01 (1st rev) - 9/6/03 (2nd rev)

 

The above first image offers a clean wide area view of this anomaly site without the distracting clutter of arrows and labels. I've done this because this site is otherwise busy with anomaly evidence and pointing it all out tends to make things get very crowded. Despite the above scene initially looking like there is little anomalous evidence in it, this is a very important site both from a surface water and civilization evidence point of view.

The water and civilization evidence here is my fourth and last report to be drawn from the NASA-JPL-MSSS official MGS MOC M02-00163 narrow-angle image strip. As previously reported, this strip has produced the most numerous anomaly evidence so far for me of any single strip I've yet encountered in the official science data. Also, the colossal size evidence seen in the companion M02-00164 wide-angle context strip as per my report #003 titled "Colossal Head & Animal Monuments" was the red flag that drew my attention to this narrow-angle strip and I believe that this red flag treatment was made available intentionally by someone not complying with the party line within the secrecy insiders as explained in that previous report.

Also, as previously reported, this M02-00163 strip is a big one that appears deceptively clear at the official 100% resolution size as per my above first image. However, before being enlarged at official level, this strip has been subjected to a variety of image tampering treatments include general resolution degradation. The result is that zooming in very much in this strip quickly runs into resolution degradation problems and fuzzy, grainy images.

The above second image offers a view of the same scene as in the first image but now with the arrows and labels pointing out most of the main anomaly evidence. A few pieces of tampering evidence are also pointed out but most of this I've left out of the labeling to spare clutter even though it does play its usual part in partially obscuring the evidence.

There is nothing easy to interpret with respect to this site. Most of the evidence is unfamiliar to most viewers and therefore difficult to interpret. What we're looking at here is a huge entertainment park sporting a aquatic theme but on a massive monumental scale and quite different looking than anything seen here on Earth. Further, this park has been subjected to some disastrous calamity leaving a portion of it in wreckage and some of the rest of it appears to have essentially been abandoned and allowed to become at least partially derelict and in ruins. Certainly, at the very least, this place is no longer operational as to its initial intended purpose.

One of the first things you should be aware of is that there is a very bright glow area producing a lot of light in this scene pointed out with an arrow and label. Whether this is a highly reflective spill area or an intense glow produced from within and/or on the ground is unclear because no amount of darkening will allow a sufficient view into this bright glow spot. At ground level immediately adjacent to and just a little to our right of the flow area is the terminating end of a huge skeletal bridge system coming in from further to the right. It has twisted and dangling girders at the glow area indicating a massive failure of the bridge right at this its largest point.

This bridge system calamity does not appear to the result of internal failure and collapse downward or anything like that but the result of some sudden catastrophic event forcing its failure, breaking it apart, and bringing it down at this point in its length and on to our left of this point. In fact everything over and around the bright glow area seems to be in disastrous ruins with a rough debris field (including buildings & sections of the bridge scattered around) extending off in a wide band directly to our left of the glow area and off the left edge of the original strip.

I strongly suspect that this bright glow area is something residual and possibly still active representing some catastrophic failure of something at this point in the past that helped create the sudden failure of this facility and its abandonment. This is also probably why it remains abandoned and not a candidate for reconstruction.

However, it is also possible that a problem with the managed water system below ground resulted in a disastrous flood that swept everything away in the broad left field of this site and in turn creating the glow area problem. There does appear to be a broad but relatively defined corridor of destruction to the left of the glow area that isn't shared by the rest of the site implying a directional destructive flow effect rather than a general blast. So this may be combo failure and its hard to determine which came first.

What I think would have been the most obvious evidence of artificiality in this scene is a very large object toward the left lower corner of the above image pointed out with an arrow and label. Unfortunately, it has been covered by swipes of direct smudge image tampering leaving only tantalizing peaks at it suggesting artificiality but otherwise effectively obscured it. Too bad.

In the above third and closer view image of the site's main evidence, the long bridge system can be seen a little better even though it is very vague due to the poor resolution and the fact that it is a skeletal structure that would normally not show up very well in this distant satellite imaging anyway. You can see where it terminates in broken up debris at the bright glow area.

On the left side of this image, you can see a white water river system coming down this incline flowing down hill from the top of the image to the bottom to the side of the park. Remember, even though I may pass over this evidence relatively quickly here, flowing liquid surface water is ultra important because, not only does it directly support and enable life, its presence tells us that atmospheric temperatures in this area are much milder than official statistical data would have us believe. So, even though I may treat it briefly here in favor of the dramatic civilization evidence, this particular liquid surface water evidence is very important.

Over this river system is a faintly seen trestle bridge system that spans across the gorge this river system has eroded out in its downhill race. Moving from right to left across this trestle system and gorge, it disappears behind some vaguely seen large unclear object and comes out on the left side as a continuation of the larger bridge system. However, it is what this raised bridge system passes between on its way to its original mid area and disastrous terminating end that is the real story here and what identifies this as the incredible aquatic theme park it is.

Imagine yourself now traveling across the trestle over the river from our right to our left and into the mid area of the still existing part of the bridge before getting to the terminating end but in the days when this site was fully operational. To your left you would see the giant shark like monument with its head area towering and appearing to hang over you dwarfing you and even the bridge system. Seen under the raised shark like monument's front-end and behind it would be the lower profile mollusk like monument. In those past times, these two giant monuments would have probably been seen in standing open liquid water as though the creatures the monuments represent were alive in the water.

As large and dwarfing as these aquatic creature monuments are, on the opposite side of the bridge to your right from the same spot you would have seen a far larger far more massive colossal size clear conical shaped dome the size of a small mountain dwarfing everything. This clear dome would have been full of water and probably very large live creatures in that water appearing suspended in the air towering over you. Imagine the psychological impact as you leaned back to take in the monstrous height of this great massive pillar of water towering above you. The clear dome is still there, empty of course of water, and it appears intact and undamaged.

In fact, the now empty dome is still so clear that it does not impede the view of the terrain behind it as seen through it. Because of this, the clear dome itself is admittedly very hard to see in this imaging under the best of circumstances but it is there. Its perimeter outline edges can be very very faintly seen only because they represent looking through the thickest part of the dome surface. I have placed green dots just above its outline to help define its outer perimeter dimensions and shape in a line just below each of the dots. It's too bad that this necessarily lower quality JPEG imaging for the Web is just not up to showing this better.

In the area of ground that would have been within the underside base area of the great aquarium dome (under my "derelict bridge system" labeling and arrows), you can see large pits in the ground with erosion lines leading out generally in the same direction from each pit hole. This is where the expelled water would have come from filling the dome interior from the bottom up and then, once filled, providing circulation water currents within the dome in a swirling motion.

It is very probable that some water may have exhausted out of the top peak of the dome and run down its sloped sides hiding the dome material completely from view from ground or bridge level so that the mountain of water suspended in the air effect would have appeared even more incredibly real. This overflow appears to have been retained in various shallow cupped pool areas at ground level in the terrain under and out from the bridge system and encompassing the various monuments. Very careful examination of the site does indicate that these shallow cupped areas are present and in a slight terrace effect even though difficult to point out and see in this web imaging.

The water at ground level flowed from the dome area under the elevated bridge system to the elevated shallow cupped area in which the two giant creature monuments rest. It then overflowed from this elevated terrace level to our left over a ledge as a waterfall and down into another deeper cupped area in the lower left quadrant of my first image here where the "large object obscured by tampering" is located. This giant object would have also sat in water.

The water in this terrace seems to have also been fed and accessed by a cave system up under the bridge area and under the first terrace level. This implies that this second and even larger great pool may have itself been an open air aquarium with aquatic life in it. This second pool level in turn overflowed into a final terrace with a porous bottom surface and a large pit in the center located in the lower left corner of my first image where the water went underground and was no doubt recycled. Many of these terrace areas have a lot of tampering applications on them obscuring what would have no doubt been additional evidence there.

The sustained recycled surface water level is the reason for the elevated bridge system standing in this water. It curves back and forth slightly as it passes through this park between its giant primary features and then originally curved back to our left in the first image here. However, from the bright glow area further on to the left, the bridge has been destroyed and what ever caused this catastrophe has left only a debris field of destruction in a wide corridor extending off image to our left and what ever was originally there is gone now, at least as far as being intact evidence goes.

The pit holes feeding the dome from below are probably large enough in size to also provide passage from under ground for whatever probably huge creatures may have existed in this colossal "fish tank" at one time. Of course I can't possibly know the aquarium unknown occupants true size. However, the dome itself, the observation point from the bridge system that it towers above, the viewing angle and distance, and the other monumental size Shark and Mollusk like monuments speak to us of the psychological impact who ever built this and the other sites in this region reported on from this same strip also sporting colossal monumental evidence says a lot about what impressions they were trying to convey and what we might be able to assume as to sizing. Who knows, perhaps the Shark like creature itself was alive and well and once an occupant of this dome?

Imagine the great technical power it would have taken back when this was built to have constructed such a dome strong enough to withstand the outward pressure of all that mountain of water and its occupants even on a planet with a lesser gravity well. This clearly demonstrates just how technically advanced who ever designed and built this was or is and just how tough these clear domes on Mars can be amounting to heavily armored immensely strong constructs. Try as I have, I can't detect any breach in the dome or that its shell has been damaged either.

This colossal size aquarium and the site's accompanying giant monuments are not just about water and aquatic life themes either, their monumental colossal size is also meant to impress and make one feel small and less significant standing in their gigantic presence. The water theme and the power of the construction design demonstrates that who ever built these great constructs almost certainly thinks in this way.

This offers very important cultural insight into how who ever designed this complex on another world thinks and that insight must not be lost on us in the future. Who ever this is, indulges in the exercise of power and does not hesitate to demonstrate it as suits them. This implies an aggressive prideful posture where humility likely takes a distinct back seat.

The above image presents an enlarged even if very grainy look at the two giant creature monuments. We can see these at all only because of their huge size. Their location on the other side of the bridge from the bright glow area, their huge size, and their probable solidity as monuments probably shielded them from any real damage in the calamity that otherwise destroyed a portion of this show case park as to its intended purpose.

The monument on the left in the above image clearly represents some kind of fish type aquatic creature. The fairly clear head, nose, mouth, and eye visuals at the left end of the object with sunlight reflecting off of this area and with the head area elevated above and a little over the bridge structure as well as the general body shape indicates that this is probably a shark like creature. The tail bent in a curve or arch upward has any flat area presented mostly edge on to us so that nothing much can be seen of that except a thin dark shadow line. Over the back and more toward the top of the head area is a projection that is sort of shaped like a dorsal type fin but located more forward than we are used to seeing on sharks.

Could this represent a shark species from another world? On the other hand, it is possible that this dark dorsal area may not actually be part of the monument but part of the background and it may not represent a dorsal fin at all. It's difficult to be sure about this but the rest of it is plain enough.

The monument on the right in the above image appears to possibly represent some kind of mollusk or clam like creature. On the left end of this object nearer to us, you will note that this broader proportioned end's leading edge is ragged and irregular. This is all typical of invertebrate bivalve type aquatic creatures as is the narrowing taper of the body to the probable hinged rear end you also see here.

What is not so typical is the dorsal fin structure starting in the mid part of the bivalve's upper back area and extending straight back in a narrow dark line to and wrapping around and under the bottom of the creature's rear end. This appears to be made up of a narrow row of multiple vertical pointed spines. The purpose of this would appear to be to give the mollusk a measure of stability and directional control as it squirts and travels through the water typical of some mollusks.

Here's one last observation that I will make on this evidence.

There is a lot of tampering all around and on this evidence but areas obscured by this are not to be mistaken with debris or sediment build up. The fact is that, although some of this evidence appears to be in ruins and abandoned, it does not appear to be attracting for example wind blown sediments clinging to it or piling up around at the base of these huge objects. There is simply no sign of this.

For example, the dome is so clear that only a very faint outline can be seen at its outer edge looking through its surface greatest thickness at that point. The dome is admittedly very steep in its sides incline and would shed a lot of debris and drift but that would collect in the base area and there is no sign of it there at all. Further, the dome slope is not so steep that it would not itself attract some attaching sediment over a long period of time. Something as tall and massive as this object, would catch sediment drift and yet there is no evidence of this and even the bottom areas appear to be clean as whistle as the saying goes.

That means that this is not likely to be some ancient dead ruins subjected to a long span of time of weathering and exposure. Rather, it is more logical that either this evidence's disaster was of relatively recent date not giving sediment enough time to build up or someone is currently and actively maintaining part of this facility or both. The problem is that the evidence we can see is only the really large monumental evidence and what we might consider to be normal size civilization evidence even of the size of multi-story buildings may be there but would be too small to be seen at all in this distant satellite imaging resolution.

The bottom line is don't assume that, because this facility is at least partially in ruins, that it is some ancient dead site. The fact is that the evidence available does point in a different direction at this point.

DOCUMENTATION:

To check behind me in verifying this evidence in the official science data, the easiest to access is at the MSSS website link below. This particular site is located just below the halfway point in the strip and left of center. Once it is pointed out, as has been done here, the official resolution view will be sufficient to see most of the evidence even though on a smaller scale.

http://www.msss.com/moc_gallery/ab1_m04/images/M0200163.html: This link takes you to the official MGS MOC narrow-angle science data strip that the evidence here has been drawn from. Be aware that the first listed browser compatible JPEG sinusoidal (angled) strip works but offers a flipped view that distorts the evidence, so don't use that. Also, the second listed strip does not work. The third listed straight oriented higher quality but slower loading GIF strip does work, offers the same view as the raw official data strip the scientists see, and matches the evidence orientation presented here. Warning! The use of any other strip having a different orientation will distort evidence and generate poor results.
