"The US Spirit rover on Mars has seen a UFO streak across the Red Planet sky.

Astronomers say it could be the first meteor seen from the surface of another world, or a redundant orbiting spacecraft sent to Mars 30 years ago."

The image in the BBC article is too jpeg'd to make any analysis of.

or maybe its beagle 2 coming in for a belated landing :lol:

But seriously, what are nasa doing pointing these cameras at the skies on Mars?, are the operators getting bored of photographing nearby rocks or something
