It was the Daily Mail I think.
I had a quick skim through the article, It looks like a guy called
Hoagland (sp?) is trying to push a book on the subject - wasn't he
the one trying to convince people that there was a glass city on the
moon a few years back ?
All in all, I'm a bit sceptical about the whole thing - I suspect it
will
turn out to be some unusual (but natural) geography and a trick of the
light. I'm certainly not about to buy a book based on a few dodgy images
from the '70s when we'll have much better info in a year or so, when
global surveyor and pathfinder get there.
Then again, the last 2 probes to Mars didn't make it.....
ALun.
