Comparison of the Alleged Tic Tac Photo and the Subsequent Image Taken 2 Hours Later<\/strong><\/p>\n

I previously shared a post discussing similar rock formations adjacent to the Tic Tac here<\/a>. This earlier post highlighted how there are not only other formations resembling the Tic Tac nearby, but also how, from different angles, it appears to blend in more uniformly with the surrounding landscape and is clearly part of a larger formation.<\/p>\n

Recently, there has been some confusion around the photo taken two hours later that the moderators have pinned here<\/a>. This image is referred to as NAV_LEFT_B 04:56:24<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s examine the distinctive features in the original image linked by the OP of the previous thread, which can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Tic<\/p>\n

I have zoomed in on and outlined notable features for comparison between the two images. The formation directly beneath the Tic Tac (outlined in blue) is characterized by a distinct ridgeline leading to a large, rounded outcropping. This formation is adjacent to a more angular rock partially covered by sand (circled in red). Additionally, there is a larger rock next to the Tic Tac (circled in green) featuring a small protrusion that points toward the Tic Tac (circled in yellow).<\/p>\n

\"Comparison<\/p>\n

Next, let\u2019s take a look at the photo NAV_LEFT_B 04:56:24<\/a>. This image was shot from a higher angle and at a lower zoom level, approximately two hours after the first set of photos. I will mark the location of the Tic Tac in this larger image.<\/p>\n

\"Larger<\/p>\n

Now, let\u2019s zoom in to align with the features from the earlier photo: the Tic Tac in blue, the ridgeline and rounded formation in red, the large rock next to the Tic Tac in green, and its protrusion towards the Tic Tac in yellow. Please note that the quality is lower in this zoomed-in view due to the original image being taken from further away.<\/p>\n

\"Zoomed-In<\/p>\n

As illustrated, all formations are still discernible, though the perspective is more steep and the zoomed-in detail is reduced. Importantly, the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
