Sometimes people just come up with brilliance, this is that moment
Man, I was gonna saw draw Dickbutt but this is better
The flag of North Korea.
Something simple, like a bolt from one of the rovers. But make sure it's from one that has never been in that half of the planet.
A standard automotive bolt. Maybe something that was ubiquitous in the 1950’s but isn’t used today in place of something cheaper and more reliable
An orb with a print for a three fingered hand.
Quaid... start the reactor...
A copy of ET for the Atari 2600
A half-eaten tuna sandwich. By the time they manage to retrieve it for examination, it would definitely be all soggy.
My body in a lawn chair, with my right thumb extended out for hitchhiking, my left hand holding an American flag, and a sign in my lap saying "California or bust!"
Shouldnt've taken that left at Albuquerque
A waffle house
Not a single act, but a series of actions. The rovers power down during Martian nights, right? So, during these periods, you could rearrange the rocks nearby. At first, NASA might not even pick up on the changes, but eventually, someone's bound to notice.
Imagine the buzz it would create! The scientists studying the photographs sent back by the rovers would be left scratching their heads. They'd probably first suspect some unknown natural phenomena, or even the rovers themselves, until the changes became too orchestrated to explain away. It would be a cosmic puzzle, a Martian mystery that would have them combing through data for answers.
No extraordinary or unnatural objects, just ordinary Martian rocks moved around. Instead of presenting them with an object that screams 'alien intervention,' you'd be nudging them into a mystery, all with the Martian surface's naturally occurring elements.
The rocks change in a pattern, I swear it's a single character substitution cipher! Wait a minute... "drink more Ovaltine" what the crap?
@YolkBrushWork402 - A giant florescent dildo.
Came here to say dildo. Im on board. One giant dick for man kind.
A giant head of Lenin. It’s a red planet after all.
A "Welcome to Venus" sign. Just imagine their faces, they'd be so confused...
My 1952 soviet bulgaria coin
A single horseshoe crab, naturally deceased.
A stainless steel commemorative plaque that says "Site of humanity's first successful time travel experiment - March 13th 2153"
An altered skeleton, half buried. Give it a larger than normal skull or extra long arms or toes or something like that.
That would for sure fuck with NASA scientists
Assuming size is not an object, a pyramid; doesn't matter if it's Myan, Aztec, or Egyptian, heck make it a mix, and have it buried in a mound of dirt or in a mountain with just parts of it sticking out.
Or if we aren't going supernatural teleportation of items, I'd think something like the person who said moving rocks around, maybe lay rocks out in shapes like roads or the foundations of houses.
"HELP" or "SOS" in rocks would be pretty funny
A sealed hab dome, containing a fish breeding tank that outputs a portion every so often into another tank, and a flock of penguins. There are also penguin shaped space suits mounted next to the air locks
Ooh. A small broken octagonal habitat shape with the fossilized remains of dolphin bones and dolphin shaped mechanized suits. As well as some kind of buried damaged “launch pad” that could fit a decent sized ship.
Wait… that would be less confusing and more exciting as a earths history kind of thing.
A "Kilroy was here" graffiti.
A simple message: "ALL THESE WORLDS ARE YOURS EXCEPT MARS, ATTEMPT NO LANDING THERE."
I'd put an empty spacesuit from the Apollo era.
Make it a Soviet space suit from the Apollo era. That would cause every politician in the US to shit bricks.
Why stop at spacesuit? Put lunar landing module and American flag in configuration like they were on the moon. Suggesting that moon landing was indeed a fake, and they did everything on Mars.
Mars bar
Dildo
A German flag colored towel
purely to confuse NASA scientists
Ah then it is simple: we place an ESA spacecraft there.
Something that's flying around here as well, and often. Maybe they wouldn't even realize that it doesn't belong there at first. Like a condom wrapper or a dog turd.
