Mars or the Red Planet may have had green vegetation at some point of time, a report claims. The stand is strengthened by an image snapped by Curiosity rover on Sol 164 which showcases what looks like an ancient tree stump.

According to a Daily Mail report, the photographic evidence, discovered by some alien hunters, was first published by Paranormal Crucible. The image was recently released by NASA.

“This object definitely looks out of place and in my opinion could be the petrified remnants of a Martian tree,” the video description read. Further, a comment by a YouTube user WhatsUpInTheSky37 said, “Object is around 3 feet in height, and with numerous discoveries of plant and animal life on mars, it would be logical to assume, that a variety of tree either existed, or still exists on this enigmatic planet.” (ALSO READ: Life on Mars?

As described by NASA, the image was captured by Mastcam onboard NASA’s Mars rover Curiosity on Sol 1647 in March this year. While some believe it might be many of the rocks discovered on the planet, others feel that it could prove that life was present at some point of time.

“It is a good assumption since NASA themselves said Mars was Earth-like when a solar explosion hit the planet, stripping the atmosphere and oceans from the surface,” well-known Martian researcher Scott C Warning said.
