Eros 433 is an Asteroid (NEA)that has a Mars crossed orbit and the spacecraft named "NEAR Shoemaker" is a probe that was sent to study this giant rock. the "NEAR" probe studied this Asteroid from a close orbit over a period of a year. over 160,000 pictures were taken during the mission. the spacecraft landed on Eros and is still there today as far as we know.

A couple very strange anomalies have been found in the photographs. what can they be ? Alien Base ? or just rocks ?
