And I believe that aliens are out there.

So he looked at Mars and he saw these...

four-inch telescope or something, like a really blurry small telescope.

But he was able to make out these little patterns, and he thought they were canal systems because he saw that going up all around the United States at the time.

He even did it for Mars, and he saw – this is crazy.

He saw these – he drew a similar kind of picture.

Maybe you can Google it, Jamie, Percival Lowell Venus, and you'll get these kind of spokes.

And he saw these maps of Venus that, of course, were wrong,

And they look like the back of an eye.

They look like the blood vessels on the back of an eye.

And so ophthalmologists actually think that's what he was seeing.

So if you go to the left, the next one down, yeah, that one there.

You see that?

So that's the image he drew on the right, and that's the image of the back of an eye.

And his eyesight, it's thought, was so good, he was seeing reflections of light in his own eyeball.

And was seeing his own blood vessels.

So he was right.

His eyesight was freaking awesome.

He was correct about that.

But he misinterpreted it to be living things on Mars.
