Cosmologist Peter dunsby from the University of Cape town was once again “discovered” the Red planet and reported it to colleagues, reports Rus.Media.

Dansby reported the observation of an unknown astronomical phenomenon in The Astronomer”s Telegram (ATel) is an Internet service created for the rapid exchange of information about astronomical phenomena in the scientific community. In ATel one can find information, for example, gamma-ray burst supernovae and other objects that interest the scientific world.

Peter dunsby there published the news that on March 20, he found an extremely bright object in the night sky near the Triple nebula and the Lagoon nebula. According to him, 8 March, at this place it was nothing. The researcher asked the colleagues to share thoughts about the nature of the object. Though actually — it was Mars.

Soon the Twitter account of The Astronomer”s Telegram published a humorous certificate in the name of Peter dunsby as a reward for “opening” of Mars. The scientist himself also soon realized the mistake and apologized for the fact that distracted by other researchers.
