Rosetta Spacecraft Spots 'Pyramid' Boulder on Comet

Yeah, I had Richard Hoagland's book on the Face. It was interesting speculation based on the earliest photographs, but I thought he was completely out of his mind when he started talking about ruins of a city there.
There, I bolded the relevant part you missed. There's still plenty of ice, just not on the surface.
Well, had there been validity to the idea that it was a constructed face, then why would one not also expect there to be ancient cities in the area? These two ideas go together, even though they are both bunk.
In other news, canal shaped trenches have been photographed on the surface of Mars.
At twenty minutes before eight, central time, Professor Farrell of the Mount Jennings Observatory, Chicago, Illinois, reports observing several explosions of incandescent gas, occurring at regular intervals on the planet Mars. The spectroscope indicates the gas to be hydrogen and moving towards the earth with enormous velocity. Professor Pierson of the Observatory at Princeton confirms Farrell's observation, and describes the phenomenon as "like a jet of blue flame shot from a gun ".

The legend lives on

Wrote some words, it is true
Left the rest of the crew
Start to laughin'

Go "viral"?
The Posters all say
That the Thread should not stary
If the facts end up
Deep in Vastitis
In a musty old part

It been a few years since I've seen it, but I seem to recall really enjoying the Race to Mars miniseries, which might fit your bill.
BRILLIANT!!!!
Perhaps when humanity was young and was visited by Extra Solar Entities (EST's) which are depicted in numerous caveman paintings that the EST's mapped the trajectory of the comet and calculated so that when it would arrive close to Earth, hoping that humanity by that time would have progressed to be able to look into space and observe the comet, that humanity would see the triangular shape and begin to trace the three origin points through space, based on its rotation, to possibly discover something of great wonder.

This is the science forum.
Erich von Däniken's books are not science.
This is a fun place so fooling around is definitely okay but bringing up theories like this is dangerously close to trolling. Especially since you know what kind of reactions you've triggered with stuff like this in the past. Consider this a friendly reminder.

Wouldn't that be ESE?
Or they could have done something less convoluted and built something on the far-side of the moon or on Earth itself.
Perhaps it should be Prehistoric Extra-Solar Travelers.
