Soviets on Mars

 THE FOLLOWING NEWS ITEM APPEARED ON AP (ASSOCIATED PRESS) AT 

4:41 PM EST MARCH 30, 1989:

.

"SOVIET RESEARCH CENTERS ARE NOW TRYING TO INTERPRET SO FAR 

'UNEXPLAINED OPTICAL PHONOMENA' ON THE PICTURES OF THE MARTIAN

SURFACE.  THE PICTURES SHOW AN INIGMATIC STRIP 23-25 MILES

WIDE AND A LARGE SPINDLE-SHAPED FORMATION."

.

According to NASA liason spokepersons in Moscow, the Soviets

had not turned on their camera and WERE NOT even taking

pictures of the Martian surface.  This is the information

which was relayed only a few weeks ago.  AP also stated 

that the Soviet news program "Vremya" showed a detailed

map of Mars "compiled from photos taken during the mission."

It DOES now appear that the Soviets WERE taking pictures and

furthermore, it looks like they may have found something

in those photographs which is quite interesting.
