Rate the following essay on its writing, argument, and language skills:
Do you think aliens are real? If not, good for you! If so, let me tell you how they aren't. I'm a scientist for NASA and I'm currently studying 3 figures on Mars that look kind of like faces. It all started twenty five years ago when NASA's Viking 1 spacecraft spotted a shadowy figure of a human face.

When the images were shown to the other controllers they were surprised, of course. Unfortunately that surprise didn't last. The scientists just figured it was just a Martian mesa, except the shadows on it had made it look like an Egyption Pharroh. The image was released a few days later for everyone to see, the authors believed it was a great way to attract attention to Mars. That's exactly what it got, attention.

Although the "Face on Mars" has become a pop icon, it is believed by some that the face is evidence that there was once life on Mars. Which some claim it's evidence that we'd rather hide. I would like to dissagree with that statement though. On April 5, 1998, Michael Malin and his Mars Orbiter Camera team had snapped a picture even better than the orginal pictures. When the pictures were surfaced on the internet, it appeared that the "faces" were just a site of natural landform.

Three years later after people still weren't satisfied, we decided to take another look. The pixels were better in the second picture, that even if there were aliens you'd be able to see them! Luckily the picture actually shows landforms common around the American West.
