Treat for UFO Enthusiasts, coffin-like object spotted on the surface of Mars.

A Maryland-based Unidentified Flying Object (UFO) hunter, Will Farrar has spotted an object that looks like a coffin on the Martian surface. The coffin was discovered by user WhatsUpintheSky37 as he was navigating through a library of pictures sent by Curiosity rover of NASA.

The UFO hunting group has now posted a video which features this coffin like object. The coffin is not easy to spot normally in the video. However, a closer inspection will reveal the anomaly.

"This little box sure does look like a modern coffin concrete liner", captioned Will Farrar on his official YouTube channel.

According to researcher Scott Waring of the UFO Sightings Daily, the object looks to be about one meter across and a foot-and-a-half high. It may simply be a stone formation. He even suggests NASA to turn the Curiosity rover around and take a closer look at the 'coffin'.

Many scientists are claiming that it is due to a psychological phenomenon called Pareidolia. It is a peculiar capability of human brain, which will make us see faces and significant objects in random places. According to them, rocks and their shapes can be interpreted in every way possible.

Earlier, a former NASA employee named 'Jackie' has claimed that she had witnessed suited men running on the red planet way back in 1997.
