Inca City, Mars proven to be part of a perfectly
circular collection of structures!
New photographic evidence shows how Inca City, Mars fits into a massive
complex of anomalous structures that form a perfect circle on the surface of
the Red Planet!
This is elegant proof of intelligent construction on a grand scale.
These massive structures were first identified as potential city ruins by
Dr. Dan Burisch in the late 1990s. Intensive research isolated many more
anomalous artifacts in the region and led the way to the publication of his
findings in the book Eagles Disobey: The Case for Inca City, Mars. I only
wish Dr. Burisch could see this new evidence. I know what he'd say...."It's
so good to be proven right!!!"
Unfortunately, he resides under heavy guard
when he is not working at S4, and any contact with the public has been
strongly discouraged. The people in charge of the Blk-Ops projects he is
working on were less than pleased that his name and findings with regard to
Mars were ever made public. Dr. Burisch endured the loss of his academic
credentials rather than back down from his position that Mars, especially
Inca City Mars, held one of the keys to the question of
extraterrestrial
life, and its relationship to human life.
The foundation-like structures seen in the images that Dr. Burisch used for
his initial research were not broad enough to show the full extent or scope
of the find. In fact, when one of the team sent in a request to see
surrounding images, NASA responded by saying that those frames were private
and not available to the public.
But now that's all changed, thanks to the
amazing improvements in technology, and what seems to be a change in
attitude concerning the release of nearby images. The MOC camera permits us
to see the full area surrounding Inca City, and as a result we now know that Inca City is only a small part of a massive, perfectly circular collection
of anomalies!
It's nothing short of spectacular!

"Inca City" is the
informal name given by Mariner 9 scientists in 1972 to a set of
intersecting, rectilinear ridges that are located among the
layered materials of the south polar region of Mars. Their
origin has never been understood; most investigators thought
they might be sand dunes, either modern dunes or, more likely,
dunes that were buried, hardened, then exhumed. Others
considered them to be dikes formed by injection of molten rock
(magma) or soft sediment into subsurface cracks that
subsequently hardened and then were exposed at the surface by
wind erosion.
The Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) has
provided new information about the "Inca City" ridges, though
the camera's images still do not solve the mystery. The new
information comes in the form of a MOC red wide angle context
frame taken in mid-southern spring, shown above left and above
right. The original Mariner 9 view of the ridges is seen at the
center.
The MOC image
shows that the "Inca City" ridges, located at 82°S, 67°W, are
part of a larger circular structure that is about 86 km (53 mi)
across. It is possible that this pattern reflects an origin
related to an ancient, eroded meteor impact crater that was
filled-in, buried, then partially exhumed. In this case, the
ridges might be the remains of filled-in fractures in the
bedrock into which the crater formed, or filled-in cracks within
the material that filled the crater. Or both explanations could
be wrong. While the new MOC image shows that "Inca City" has a
larger context as part of a circular form, it does not reveal
the exact origin of these striking and unusual martian
landforms.
