Moses of Mars – Sol 1375

Posted by Mike Seguin · June 2016

Sol 1375 · Curiosity Right Mastcam (M-100) · Gale Crater, Mars

In this astonishing image from Sol 1375, we see what appears to be a **full-bodied humanoid figure**, standing upright and holding **metallic, reflective tablets**. The tablets seem to bear **glyph-like markings**, suggesting **written communication or symbolic intent**. Is this a message? A warning? A Martian version of the Ten Commandments? The figure’s posture and presence evoke a **mythic messenger**, a **prophet of the red planet**.

The terrain is layered and fractured, typical of Gale Crater’s sedimentary formations. The figure stands out against the backdrop—**not eroded**, but **defined**, as if **placed** or **emerged**. The reflective quality of the tablets suggests **metallic composition**, possibly **engineered or preserved**.

This being may represent a **Martian scribe**, a **keeper of knowledge**, or a **cosmic envoy**. The act of holding tablets implies **intentional transmission**—a desire to **communicate across worlds**. Whether spiritual, historical, or technological, the symbolism is clear: **Mars has something to say**.

The humanoid figure appears to hold metallic tablets with glyph-like markings. A moment of mythic transmission.

Annotated view showing the figure and tablets. The reflective surface suggests intentional design or preservation.
