Captured Mar/Curiosity image of a fossil

[Reddog54]

Sept 2015. This image is clear and is a tight zoom-in screen capture utilizing Curiosity's gigapixel camera. The fossilized object appears to have circular eye slots or breath holes on the right and what appears to have a formation of vertebrate down the back.

No? I feel like I am looking at a cloud and we are about to argue what it looks like.

I see a rock in the photo.

I am fairly certain that is what they are talking about, which is why I said cloud shape argument.

if you look closer, on the right side there is a circular structure with two slots in the center.

Humans naturally try to put faces on things, it is a part of evolution, and this looks like one of those cases. I can see the features, but I can also see a face on the moon. I see a rock. Not saying anything mean, just presenting a reason it might look like it has a "face".

Of course, it is a rock all fossils are rocks, but this is different. I don't see faces, rats or cats just a fossilized creature on the surface of Mars.

Have you seen the famous "Bones on Mars" picture? I've had a x-ray tech go over that image without telling them what it was and they said Themer Bone. I would have someone who works with bones go over the images and you'd be surprised how many fossils are possibly in Curiosity Photo log

"Themer Bone"?? IOW something that does not exist?

It does not look like a fossil.
I volunteer in a dinosaur (and other creatures)museum. The fossils I work with have clearly demarked boundaries between the encasing rock and the fossilized material. This object is all one rock sort, and it appears to be sedimentary. So, sorry, not a fossil, just eroded sandstone.
