Today on Far Future Horizons we will be taking a voyage to the planet Mars in search of past Martian civilizations and Extraterrestrial Archaeological monuments.

We humans have been fascinated with our red planetary neighbour since the dawn of time. Years after the scare caused by Orson Welles' War of the Worlds broadcast, we've dismissed the idea that Mars is inhabited by "little green men".

Some imaginative Mars enthusiasts, however, point to the infamous "face" photograph as proof that an advanced race once prospered. Scientists do hold out hope that study of Martian meteorites and probes sent to the planet may uncover evidence of simpler life forms. But, was there ever a past civilization on the planet Mars?

Painting © Pat Rawlings:  This has to be my most favorite paintings by Pat Rawlings: An Astronaut makes an incredible archaeological find on Mars of an Alien Artifact. Is It Martian or does it come from beyond the solar system?
