We've had a few of these, though I can't track down the threads at the moment, so I figured I'd start one for the general topic. as well as making an initial contribution.

On the CBC the new show called Monday Edition (a news spoof show hosted by Rick Mercer) they said that they just got telemetry from the Beagle 2.

"Beagle 2's" camera pans out showing a desolate arctic environment. Then an Inuit sticks his face in the screen and says "Welcome to Iqualuit *&%#@^%$. Well I thought it was funny.

Walter asked about directions on Mars in another topic and this popped in my head. I couldn't pass this one up.

I Just gotta say, that first picture is obviously faked. If you look closely, you can see that all the shadows aren't parallel! [-X [-(

That and the Peace sign. It is well known Martian Peace signs are in the shape of a 4 dimensional cube. So henche the pic is fake.

The rumors of Mr. Bunny's demise have been greatly exaggerated.

Bad Astronomy in one of those (more subtle than the obvious & deliberate distortions):
Martian sitting around, reading the paper next to another with a telescope. Paper headline reads: "Earth closest for 60,000 years; 35 million miles away". While I suppose they might have an analog to the mile, which might happen to be about the same size, they should definitely be counting time in Martian years, so about 28,000 or 30,000 is what it should have read (I don't know how precise the 60,000 number is).
On the other hand, they might count in octal, which would make 60,000 into decimal 24,576. But we all know that real Martians use trinary anyway, right? :wink:

Someone was talking about that old joke article by Steve Martin about kittens on mars .
