White, said "The structure on Mars looks like a very large rodent which is 2-3 feet in size and may be an illusion but it has ears, nose and eyes similar to a rat."
The images of 'mouse' were taken from a height of 6ft-high (1.8 metre) by Curiosity rover on 27 October.
The picture was taken at a site on Mars named, Concepcin Crater. Due to strange coatings on rocks near the crater, the area is yet a mystery for the scientists.
Researchers are using their discoveries to provide an indication that life once existed on the red planet. They claim to reveal more information about the mysterious life on Zed Planet in future.
