dew, nice observation, and welcome!
Straight parallel lines are definitely something that should make any honest person take notice - as this is the type of feature that is potentially suggestive of artificiality.
What is strange to me is the number of people who must have seen those same types of lines, but have been too cowardly to comment.
The problem with this one though, is that the public is not made aware of the numerous defects in Mars photos that look artificial, but are not really produced by the surface of Mars.
In this case, I think we have lines produced by ESA equipment that ESA was unable to extricate from their original raw image, and which were then exaggerated further by google earth's vertical lift which gives darker or lighter areas the appearance of elevation.
These lines can actually make it harder to find anomalies, because we are looking for just this type of feature, but these lines cover up an area, and make it hard to truly visualize the landscape.
One way you can confirm whether this is the real landscape, or just another image defect, is by clicking on the spacecraft imagery feature in google earth, and find a moc or ctx image that covers the same territory with this same type of lines. The moc and ctx are typically at higher resolutions that the ESA images. Once you have those higher resolution images, you can search them for the straight parallel lines and see if they exist there as well. If so, you may have something really cool.
Thanks again for posting, and let me know what you find if you decide to follow this one up with confirming images!

I found these well defined completely straight parallel lines yesterday in the attached image. They are in the Cydonia region about 100 miles from the face. I would find it hard to believe these have not been discovered yet but figured I would post them just in case. I find multiple straight parallel lines are some of the most indisputable evidence of life, or past life on Mars as they are impossible to duplicate in nature, therefore it is either a software glitch or legitimate signs of life.

Anyone have any idea or thoughts on what this could be? Could it be some kind of illusion from overlaying images? To me it looks consistent with something that is actually there on the ground. The darker parts look like they are in the shadows.

earth1228, I have seen a bunch of this in the Google Earth images. I believe these to be image defects - as they run parallel with the edges of the original photo.
In google earth you can check this against other image maps to see if they exist in other imagery taken by different satellites.
You will see a "Layers" category on the left side of the computer screen.
Under the "layers" category - click the "+" next to "global maps."
This will then give you other choices. By default, we are looking at the ESA imagery - which is marked "visible imagery." Click on each of the other choices to determine if the same feature is present in other imagery.
For closer shots of the area, under "Layers," you can also click the "+" beside spacecraft imagery, and get links to shots of the area under study taken by specific spacecraft. From this, you can confirm what is there on the ground - at least as seen by other cameras.

Thank you Marsrocks for the reply and for the tips for future mars searching. You are doing good work here. Something seems different about these lines, like different than the typical image overlay lines but you are right, after looking at additional imagery in the vicinity of the site, I'm not seeing these lines.
