Cydonia 'Face On Mars'

This dramatic 3D animation, produced by the Mars Express High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) science team, beautifully simulates a flight over the Cydonia 'Face on Mars', one of the most famous surface features on the planet. The Cydonia region lies at approximately 40.75° North and 350.54° East, and is located in the Arabia Terra region on Mars, in the transition zone between the Southern Highlands and the planet's northern plains.

Your either need to be Richard Hoaxland, or an idiot to believe that is a face on mars.

@TheRockcottage

I totally agree on that. It is a clear representation of the face on mars. There is even two moons in the martian sky and everything is correct.

Was john lennon from mars? or any connection?

I do believe that some life, maybe intellegent, once lived on mars. but thats a fuckin mountain. the perimeter does look like a beach too. I was screaming face too until the new pics were taken.

It was probably just an island in an ancient martian sea. Doesnt look unnatural to me.

Beware, Cydonia holds a secret! A secret of a star map involving Pleiades and three sun-like stars:)

In fact The Face was known 18 years before it's 'discovery' in a comic!

Nasa tells a lie.

The cities are well separated from anything else.

where did you get it in your head that mars has little to no atmosphere? There are sandstorms that can cover the entire planet for months.....
