Episode 30: NASA Finds Message From God on Mars (Hoax)

Hey guys, I know I haven't posted anything since February this year and I'm not sure I have the time to resume posting on this blog consistently, but I stumbled on something that I just have to share. You've already read the title of this post, so I'm just going to copy and paste the news exactly as I have seen it on several other websites. I searched for an official source but even on http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/news/whatsnew/, I didn't find anything relating to this news. Here's a picture of NASA's Curiosity Rover, and after the picture is the exact article, word for word, that I have found on several websites.
EDIT: Apparently, the news originated from dailycurrant.com, a site that posts satirical news. In other words, it was just a hoax. You can still read the original post below, but keep in mind that it's not true.
