   It's a piece of Kentucky Fried Chicken -- a leg. Original recipe, I think.

   It's a screw.

   now that KFC doesn't use the good oil to fry chicken the fact that they call it "Original Recipe" is just a plain out lie.

   Maybe they still use the good oil on Mars?

    So that's where that spring went. I've been looking everywhere for it.

    Bret is correct on both comments,years ago,before global warming,when gravity ceased the Martians had to settle for springs on their shoes.

    Seriously... don't they do stereo pairs? And don't they have cameras that can do progressive scans to synthesize extremely high resolution? They ought to be able to read the "Made in China" label on that thing.

    It's a weapon of mass destruction.

    It's so tiny -Why can't we biggify it?

    If you mention oil and mars often enough how long do you think it will take to get a mission revved up to go drilling there. Because you know that will solve all our problems.

    Nope -
    
    Contrary to the Religious Fanatics, we aren't the only intelligent life in the universe.
    
    This "Marsworm" is actually made in God's own image!

    Isn't it interesting that after spending kazillion dollars of citizen tax money and have so many years to prepare for this that:
    
    the focus of the camera is on the spring wrapped around the arm and not on the ground perhaps a foot away!
    
    Could we not have saved all of that money and just photographed the spring around the arm on earth?

    It clearly fell out of George Bush's head some years back.

    It's the missing screw from the broken toilet on the International Space Station.

    It's not God, you fools. It's an icon of Mohammad.

    A part of Phoenix had fallen off. Reckon ?!
    But, was that nearly a problem ?
    
    It happened all the time in our practical workshop.
    
    Say, each wheel is held by 4 bolts ; 1 bolt falls out, the remaining 3 secure the wheel just the same.
    
    The car keeps running ; 4 bolts or 3.
    
    Phnenix will keep running ; that's alright, O'Matey.
    
    Regards

    Some alien lost his key and is now trying to use a coathanger to get into his spaceship.

    Its evidence that the landing is a fake and this is left over screws from the lighting and rigging engineers...

    It's 2 feet wide and 3 feet long. It's Sally Struthers' IDU.
