Mystery image of 'life on Mars' clearly underground electro genius James Stinson



The recent discovery of a man on Mars found hidden in a picture taken by NASA's Spirit rover has certainly shocked the world. Further detailed photographic analysis by Conscious Entity can now reveal that the man in question is undoubtedly mysterious Detroit underground electro genius James Stinson, formerly of Drexciya fame, and presumed deceased since 2002.

Following cryptic trails left by Stinson prior to his apparent heart attack, Conscious Entity discovered Stinson's diabolical plan in a star naming register not widely accepted in the scientific community held in the Library of Congress. Volume 6 of 'Your Place In The Cosmos' published by the International Star Registry, under the entry 'Drexciya' reveals that Stinson realised his aquatic technology could be adapted to the harsh requirements of human interplanetary travel.

Stinson, being a keen follower of NASA's unmanned missions, and sensing the once in a lifetime opportunity, faked his death and prepared to leave the planet by stowing away on board the Spirit launch rocket in June 2003. Stinson's motivation for this audacious plan will probably never be known, but Conscious Entity speculates that Stinson's disappointment relating to the constant misunderstanding of the significance of his musical output was a major factor in his decision.

Information in the 'Drexciya' entry of the register also explains that Stinson planned to separate from the rover upon entry into the Martian atmosphere, using his own parachute and a form of heat shielding developed from his studies of deep-sea crabs living near volcanic vents. "Evolution is smarter than you are," he writes. Stinson hoped to land some distance away from the rover to avoid detection once its cameras were turned on, yet close enough to rejoin it and collect supplies stowed underneath the landing apparatus.

What happened after the landing is still far from certain, but information just to hand from one-time Stinson associate Rudolph Klorzeiger has it that Stinson was also in possession of a retrofitted Iridium satellite phone that would have enabled him to stay in touch with earth via the Internet, albeit with a time delay and unreliable reception. Conscious Entity believes the photograph was captured by the Spirit rover just at the moment that Stinson came over a ridge before he discovered the rover for the first time.

Seeing the rover in the distance, Stinson thought it best to remain undetected and hid back behind the ridge, waiting until circumstances would allow him to approach the craft. Waiting for some period of time after the landing on Jan 4, 2004, Stinson used the cloaking effect afforded by a heavy transmission of underground techno music on Jan 21 courtesy of the Deep Space Network dance party crew located in Sydney, Australia, misinterpreted by NASA as a thunderstorm. The cloaking effect lasted for 10 days, easily allowing Stinson to gather his supplies and fluff over his footprints while walking backwards over the nearest ridge, in a sort of twisted homage to Michael Jackson's moonwalk.

Stinson's continued survival has been hotly contested but those who knew his music and philosophy believe that Stinson was willing to give up his life for the indescribable experience of a brief period on another planet. He knew that life truly was a one-way journey into the unknown with knowledge and imagination the only guideposts along the way. Perhaps one day his frozen body will be found atop a rocky outcrop on the mysterious red planet, a man so far ahead in time and space.
