My two cents on this topic:

The pictures are not detailed enough, it's essentially a rorschach test.

Also, there appears to be more than one generation of petroglyphs, in
the first link (of copied material); the panel on the left appears to
be a much later generation than the stick-figure petroglyphs to the
right. So the flying-fish-rocket thing could possibly be only a few
hundred years old. Just like in Petroglyphs in the American southwest,
crosses were added by spanish explorers and missionaries a few hundred
years ago to the classic southwest petros.
