The face on Mars is not caused by aliens, that is upper. Aliens wouldn't make a face on Mars because there is no such thing of them doing so. The face you see on Mars is just a detailed rock formation that formed by natural causes, and also the eyes, mouth, and nose are just shadows caused by the formation. Aliens wouldn't accuse on Mars to make a mark, if they were real they would be much farther than Mars. This landform has been their for over 18 years, so the odds are not aliens but erosion on the planet Mars. Back then want seeable, but now it is due to these erosion. If there were aliens that made the formation People would've already be talking about the alien sightings. This is why the formation was not made by aliens. Also, any aircraft, small shacks, or air plains would be able to be seen in the picture due to the pixels in the camera. The camera would be able to see anything that goes on Mars. All the details that you see is just shadows from the rock That makes it look like it has eyes, a mouth, and a nose, and that's why the face is a natural landform and not made by aliens.

I think that it was a real face, why you ask? Because that could have been a life form, and that could have been where it fell down. Where else would a face in the moon sand be like that for no reason. Like cool sanders always says its finger licking good. That's why there's a face there in the moon. Ancient tribes could have lived there before we even discovered the moon orbiting around the planet earth in the first place. There are many theory about the moon to be expected. I think that any reason could be legitimize when kernel sanders made KFC he didn't suspect a thing he just made a ton of chicken with no reason to stop and think. That's just like a way of describing any way is possible when you were not alive long ago. Because you didn't have the technology to even try, to see if there were anyone on the moon in the first place. Think of it as saying made the didn't even breath the oxygen they could just breathe in space. It seems impossible I know but made to the kind of life on the moon didn't need food water or air. I think that every type of answer can be jugged by the way it sounds but there are many ways it could happen. Like made before it was the moon it was a planet to with life on it just like earth with water, food, and resources to stay alive a point in time long ago. But when it smashed into earth all of its compo units switched at impact. Burning every living thing on the moon and making things for the earth. My reason is that god made life but when he did, he made life on the moon to, but eventually it died out before our time and leaving a souless moon for the earth to smash into it 2.3 billion years ago. Creating earth and life, humanity, and the world. When to found the face in the moon, they were just then finding out that the moon may have contained life long ago. Although it might not of happened how I explained, there might have been another way of life its self on the moon. I think it could have been a rational way, but we will never know until the end of time. As if there was life created on the earth just the same way a little time ago. When the face showed up it was unreliable.

The surface of Mars is a great mystery to human kind, but the Face on Mars is just a coincidental human face resembling landform. The Face may resemble a human face, but there are also many other things that humans think are faces. One of these landforms that may look like a face is the face on the moon and even clouds can resemble faces. Therefore I believe that the Face of Mars is just a natural landform. Although it may appear as a face to many people created by aliens, there has been no scientific proof that aliens exist. It's obvious that the Face on Mars is a peninsula or hill landform that may happen to look like a human face. If there was a peninsula or hill landform on Earth that happened to appear as a face, would everyone jump to the assumption of aliens? Then again there is no scientific evidence that aliens don't exist, but aliens are just made up science fiction creatures that people have come to believe are real. Therefore the Face on Mars is just a peninsula or hill landform that coincidentally happens to appear as a human face. Just because it happens to look like a humans face and its in outer space people jump to the assumption that aliens are the reason behind the Face on Mars. The entire idea of aliens is just a joke humans made up to scare other humans. In conclusion, that is why I believe the Face on Mars is just a natural landform that happens to resemble a human face.

Okay so you're saying that aliens created this face on Mars? Well let me tell you why you are wrong. First of all, there are no such things as aliens, and if there were aliens they would have already done something to Earth and humans. This Face of Mars was made natural. As we already know Mother Nature can do things like this. In fact, we see natural landforms everywhere. The passage states,"Global Survey space craft reveal the Face on Mars for what it really is: A mesa." Juat becuase you find something interesting on a different planet doesn't mean it was made by aliens. The Man on the Moon for example it wasn't made by aliens, and nobody says it was, so then why should The Face on Mars be any different? In one of the pitures in the passage it shows the "famous Face" and then you can see a hill next to the face. It doesn't look like anything but a small hump, but its pretty much the same thing as the face, it's made of the same thing, but it doesn't have a face. Now this why you should know that alliens did not creat the Face on Mars.

As a scientist at NASA and from the research made by other scientists here at NASA I can tell that this here face is nothing more than just a landform. The Face is just a natural landform, it is not created by aliens. Although many people would love to think that the Face wa created by aliens, it is not. The face is widely spred out as far as 2 miles wide. This enomous head has cought a lot of media attention such as being in a Hollywood film, appearing in books, magzines, radio talk shows, and even radio talk shows. This landform has become a pop icon, but even with all of this attention it doesn't change the fact that it is nothing more than just another mysterious looking landfrom on Mars. "Thousands of anxious web surfers were waiting when the image first appeared on a JPL web site, reavling . . . a natural landfrom. There was no alien monument after all." After 22 years, from this first 1976 Viking 1 photograph pf the Face of Mars there was a picture that was taken of the same face ten times sharper than the original that blew away scientists and web surfers showing that there was no alien monument after all. This shows that the Face of Mars is nothing more than a natural landform on Mars.

First , me and my partner Christina was in the lab one day when we discovered a mask on Mars. Me and Christna thought different things about the mysterious mask on Mars. My thought was that it was just from natural landform but , Christina thought different she kept going on about how the "aliens" made the mask to tell us there living on Mars. I asked her alot of time about why she thought that and you wanna know what she always said! She said "isnt it obivious that no one else in on earth and so no one can make it". I was thinking she was crazy! Shee must of been off her rocker . Some facts from the story is that "A few days later NASA unveiled the image for all to see. The caption noted a "huge rock formation. . . which resembles a human head. . . formed by the shadows giving the illusion of eyes,nose,and mouth." and " Thousands of anxious web surfers were waiting when the image appeared on a JPL web site , revealing . . . a natural landform. There was no alien monument after all." Last , what the picture actually shows is the martian equivalent of a butte or mesa-landforms common around the American West.

I think that the face on the surface of Mars is a natural landform. I disagree that it is made by aliens or any living organism. The reason I think that the face is a natural landform is that if it was made by aliens then I think there would be more of them not just one. With us humans we have many statues monuments tall skyscrapers not just one of them. For example the pyramids they obviously were not naturally made, but there are many of them that are exactly the same. So if that was made by aliens I feel like there would be many more that resembled the landform or some other odd landforms. In the 12th paragraph of the article it says this is a martian equivalent of a Butte or mesa, so there are many things that are odd that happened naturally on Earth also. In the passage Gavin said,"It reminds me most of the Middle Butte in the Snake River plain of Idaho". Gavin also said,"That there is a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa that is about the same height as the face on Mars." My next point is that many people say that N.A.S.A Is just keeping secrets of aliens away from the public. If there were aliens than N.A.S.A would probably tell them because it would get them so much more publicity and therefore probably more money to fund a mission to Mars. So I think that would just be a stupid idea if they kept it a secret. In conclusion, I think that the face on Mars is a natural landform and not made by lies

The Face on Mars is a natural landform, though, some may think that it was created by aliens. NASA's research has shown otherwise. The Face was not made by aliens, but under natural circumstances. There were many high quality pictures of this landform taken and many scientists who studied them. Scientist have come to conclusion that the Face is just a natural landform that has taken a not so natural shape. Many people still believe that the Face is some sort of ancient alien monument. These conspiracy theorists think that NASA is just trying to hide the evidence of life on Mars. As said in the article "defenders of the NASA budget wish there was an ancient civilization on Mars" (Unmasking the Face on Mars). Believers were still skeptical so, to be sure, NASA took more pictures of the Face that were clear to the eye. With these new high resolution pictures, as Gavin said, "you can discern things in a digital image 3 times bigger than the pixel size." Basically, if there were life on Mars we would be able to see even the smallest of things through these photographs. There was nothing unusual found. For 25 years conspiracy theorists have been questioning NASA's research. Specifically, on Mars and whether there is alien life on it. There have been movies and books that fanaticize on the things that could possibly be living on the Red Planet. These theories are not backed up by knowledge and facts like NASA's. NASA's scientist are the best of the best when it comes to knowing about outer space. This scientist have seen Mars, and the Face, in person. Most of the theorist have never left the planet. Lastly, there are many natural landforms like the Face on our own planet. An example of this is, Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho as pointed out by Jim Gavin. Outer space is the home to many mysteries' by, the fact that the Face is a clue to alien civilization isn't one. Even though the landform looks as if it could a ruin of an ancient alien civilization, the facts have shown that it is not. Through studying the pictures and positioning of the Face, NASA's professionals were able to conclude that it was just a natural landform much like the ones found here on Earth. This does not mean that there is no life on Mars, it just means that the Face is not a hint to finding it.

25 years ago, around Mars, a spacecraft from NASA was circling the planet. It was taking pictures, until something strange happened. An enormous head appeared and seemed to be staring back at the camera. A few scientists believed the Face, was made by an "alien." NASA has been discussing of what have may cause making a face on Mars. We had millions of answers but didn't know which one was right. Aliens did it. They are the ones who created the face! "Scientists believe the Face was an alien artifact." First, no one knows for sure what have may have caused it. It could've been the atmosphere, or it could've been an "alien." Scientists thought it was probably a "Martian mesa", only this one almost looked like an "Egyptian Pharaoh." You see, the shadow gave an "illusion of eyes, nose and mouth." It was a good way to attract the public to the attention of Mars. "There was no alien monument after all." A Thousand of people wondered and were curious about the Face on Mars. "On April 8, 2001, Mars Global Surveyor drew close enough for a second look." Close enough, they could predict what the image appeared. "So, if there were objects in this picture like airplanes on the ground or Egyptian-style pyramids or even small shacks, you could see what they were!" The pictured showed landforms most common, and you could relate to Earth. "It reminds me most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho," said Gavin. In conclusion, from 1976 to 2001, no one knows exactly what does the Face mean. The sensation was short. NASA says it could've been a "huge rock formation..." It became a popular icon. It has starred in a Hollywood film, appeared in books, magazine, radio talk shows." Some people think the Face is "bona fide" evidence life on Mars. But what do you think? Do you think it was made by an alien? Do you believe that aliens do exist? Well, were not sure. You see it could be anything.

The Face of Mars is not created by aliens, NASA's Viking 1's picture was only thought as " made by aliens" because of the shadows. In 2001 NASA took another picture of the Face on Mars, but with better resolution. It was proved that the Face was in fact just a natural landform in Mars, called a mesa. One reason this was not created by aliens was because the Face was found around Cydonia, a region in the Red Planet. A Martian mesa were common around Cydonia. First of all, It only looked like a face because of the unsual shadow that made it look like an Egyptian Pharoah. Scientist from NASA even took picture of the Face more than 20 times already, and as the resolution got better; pictures of the Face got more clear, and one can see that it is just another landform in Mars that look like a landform on Earth. Scientists already proved that Mars was once just like Earth, which meant there were many different, odd shape landforms. Even in Earth there are a bunch of landform that look like something else, so this means that Mars will also have odd shape landform. Secoundly, one can be fooled by everything they see, even sugar look like salt. The point is, the Face in 1976 does kind of look like an Eqyptian Pharaoh but in the picture taken in 2001 showed that it look like a common landform from the American West. Just because it look like a Face does not means it was created by an alien life form. Currently there is no prove that alien life form even exists, if NASA ever found of about alien life form, the news will leaked out and the public will be able to see it. Do not be decieved, you can not just make up random fact just so satisfied your curiousity, look at the facts more then make a guess on what might have happened. With using common sense, one can see that it is just another landforms in Mars that look like Lanforms from Earth. One might be thinking "NASA could jusy be lying to us, the government does not want us to find out about alien life form in the first place" that might be true, but why would the government release this news out in the fist place if they didn't want the public to find out about any alien life form. In the article it even stated that a few days later after NASA sees this they release it out for the public to see. NASA's scientist have already told the public about how they found new kind of landforms on Mars, so that's one reason to know that there will be more; that does not means that aliens created these "monument". There is currently no proof that alien exist or even if they created this Face on Mars. Currently saying, this is just another amazing landform found in Mars that is unique abotu Mars. It also looks like the Face have eyes and nose, but it is just and illusion created by the shadows. In Conclusion, you can say that this is an amazing landform that is created by God. It was release because NASA thought it would be a good way to engage the publin and attract attention to Mars, which it did. It also make others believe in aliens more than they ever did. This was a win-win for both the public and the scientists. As technology advanced we can see more clearly that it is just a natural landform that exist in Mars. It also proves that Mars might just once be like Earth because of their landforms. Instead of Venus as Earth twin's sister, Mars and Earth are look alike than ever. Garvin, Mars Global Surveyor even said it reminds him of the Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho.

m-beleve or not belive e- some people tend to base things on opinions instead of real facts like how people might say ' well how can you be so sure that aliens didn't make the face ' my rebundal would be 'the image first apperared on jpl website revealing ... a natural landform there was no landform . there was no alien monument after all. l- i can connect this by simply looking at the picture and back couple years and to now how scientist reported no life for is on mars you will be boiled to death because it's also no oxygen so how can an alien create a face when no life form have been found yet. con- in concluision i want to to say dont always go with assuptions they never always go the way you planned and also dont belive a tall tell ask the person if they have real science based facts if they check out then believe or not belive.

The face is just a rock formation that looks like a face due to the shadows which gives it eyes, nose and a mouth. the formation is normal and it is located in cydonia and it reminds alot of people of a mesa. Many conspiracy theorists say that this is something thaat nasa should not have put out for all to see. they say that in the picture that was sent out was too foggy and that it was hiding things in the fog. When this face first appeared on there monitors, they were surprised, but allitle bit after that they decided that it was just another mesa, which was common in the place that they found it at, which would be in Cydonia. they said that it just had unusual shadows that gave it the looks of a persons face. They knew that it was just a martian mese, so they decided to let everyone else see this amazng picture, hoping that they could gather the attention of the public. it did do that which was great but then they wanted to know more. so then when NASA launched another mission for mars they decided to take another picture of the face, which this time it was alot clearer for the people to see that it was just another martian mesa. People still weren't happy with those pictures, the people didn't know how hard it is to get it in the right place for another picture, but NASA was willing to get another picture for the people to finally prove that it wasn't an alien artifact. they took the picture with the camera's maximum resolution, so that the people could see everything in the picture clearly. although some people might not be satisfied, many people are.

Do you want to know the truth about the red planet and the "face" on Mars? The face on Mars is just a natural landform and I can prove it. If there really were aliens on Mars NASA wouldn't hide it knowing that the taxpayers would donate more money to NASA if there was actually anything out there to research. The second image first appeared on a JPL website revealing nothing but a rock formation. Although the second image of the face was slightly out of focus and blurry due to the clouds, the third image from 2001 was ten times sharper and was taken with a better camera, still revealing a natural formation. There is enough proof showing that the "face" on Mars is not even a face It's nothing but shadows and a rock formation. The pictures actually show the martian equivalent of a butte or mesa-landforms common around the American west.

Have you ever dreamed about exploring space? I know I have when wierd shapes or forms appear on things and places in our solar system people believe it aliens or a foriegn species that we know nothing about. Like in 1976 a global surveyor named the Viking snapped a photo of a landform that look likes a face on the planet called Cydonia. Humans always argue among each other over the fact whether it was made by aleins or just a natural landform. It's and natural landform beacause it could of been caused from a piece of another planet branching of and crashing, or regular elements acting apon the planet itself. Our solar system is huge there is alot of planets, and more uknown things humans do not know about. Many things can be floating around in outer space from other planet bigger or smaller. The peice of that planet or object broke off of could had of entered Cydonia atmosphere, and caused that landform to exist. Many things have difrent ways of cleansing, and many other different ways of doing things. We do not know if the planet Cyndia caused the unsual lamdform itself from amy kid of element storms and much more. The planet Cyndia is very rare with the landform it has own it there could be many more planets and unknown things that have rare landforms about them in the big solar system,

The Face on Mars" Could not be an alien creation because, it most likely would be more high-tech because "Aliens" are light years ahead of our technology. Also, NASA said it was just a huge rock formation that was formed by shadows to create "The Face on Mars." Also, Mars Global Surveyor flew over Colonia and snapped a perfect picture which first appeared on a JPL website that was confirmed that the face was not an Alien monument. Also, if aliens were to create this "Face" why didn't people in space see them do it. The Mars Global Surveyor's took at picture at maximum pixel to show that this "monument" was actually a little bigger then a battle or a mesa. "The Face on Mars" is not an alien monument reason being they confirmed OT was in fact a rock formation that had shadows make it look like a face.

I say that the "Face" on Mars is just a natural landform because first of all aliens do not live, and second of all why would an alien create a human face. I think that is an alien created this human "face," the alienwould have created a face of an alien because probably aliens have never seen a human before. I do believe that at first you would probably think that an alien created this but after many scientists researching and exploring the "face" they clearly stated "this face reminds us most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plan of Idaho." Just like Earth is a plant Mars is also a planet,, and just like Earth has natural landformation many other plants have natural landformation not just Earth. In the articule it states "the rock formation even has eyes, nose, and a mouth," I personaly do not think that an alien could create something with such details. Not just in Mars, scientists and explorers have found many natural landformation. After all that Micheal Malin and his Mars Orbiter studied they finally found out that the "face" was just a natural landformation. All the scientists and people who believed it was an alien still wanted to research more beacuse they didn't believe that it was a landformation, this is based on what I have heard. Again what this image acutually shows is the Martian of a butte or mesa landforms common around the Ameriacan West. In the article it also states that the "Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho is a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as thye Face on Mars.

This object on Mars has been theorized to be a face, but there is no way this could represent life on Mars. There are many pictures of Mars and nothing else showed that there could be life. There are many reasons why this is not a factor that shows that there is life on Mars. There is not enough resources, it was shown to be a natural landform after better technology was used, and it is similar to the Middle Butte in Idaho as mentioned in the article. My first reason, is that there is not enough resources to be able to have life on Mars. There is barely any water except for ice on Mars. There are no plants to create oxygen. There have been no signs of anything to provide life other than the frozen water as previously mentioned. Most of all Mars is too cold to be able to have life on it. The only way for something to live on Mars is if something somehow adapted to that type of environment. Another reason, is that it was shown to be a mesa type landform. The first picture was similar to a face because technology was not advanced enough to take a clearer picture. After we made better technology we were able to get a better and clearer picture that shows it was just a landform. My third and final reason, is that it is very similar to landforms on our planet. We have mesas AMD buttes all over our planet. The one that is most similar is in the Snake River Plain of Idaho. Many pictures shown that the "face on Mars" is not real. All of these reasons show that there is no way that this is a sign of life on Mars. As I mentioned there is not enough resources, it was shown to be a landform, and that it is similar to landforms here on Earth. So there is no way that this is a sign of another form of life other than the life on our planet.

Just A Natural Landform The Face has been to be called many things but its pretty clear that it is just a natural landform. If it was really made by aliens would't there be proof of actual aliens? Yeah there should be but there is no proof of aliens, so that is just more proof that the face is just a natural landform. There are many rocky parts on Mars and the face is just one of them people are over thinging it when all it is a pices of land. Twentry- five years ago NASA's Viking 1 discovered a shadowy figuer that looked like a human face. The thing that set off the people the most was the shadowness that formed a illuison of a face. Then when the face was released to the world everyone though that it had something to do with aliens. Peolpe started to but the face in movies, magazines, make it in a book,and people would talk about it on the radio. Very few scientist think that it was a alien which i dont think it is a alien. Then NASA sent Mars Global Surveyor to retreve more photos of the face. The pictures they retreved clearly showed that theface was just a natural landform. Think about it the pictures that were taking back in 1976 the technology wasn't great and then when they retook photos in 1998 they were so much clearer. The technology obviously inhasted over that long period of time. But people were still not convinced so they went to take another look in 2001 and the picture was even better. People want to think aliens are real but they aren't and this so called face is has nothing to do with them. If NASA were to take more photoes of it today there would be no one who thinks its a alien. Today's technology doen't even compare to the technology they had when they took the last pictures of the face, but people are going to believe what they want. All the facts clearly state that the face is just a natural landform. In the beginning when the face was first discovered people though it was a hard fact about aliens ,but technology got better and we could see it better to tell that it was just land. it is really clear to me that all it is a natural landform.

Many people might think that the face on Mars was created by aliens and many others might think that it is just a natural landform. There is no proof for any of the rumors. People have had clues about them. Some say that it looks like an Egyptian Pharaoh, others say it looks like a river from Idaho. The face has become so popular that it was starred in movies, magazines, books and talk shows. It was so popular because it was unusual. NASA knew once they showed the public the picture they would attract more attention to the planet Mars. The Mars Orbiter Camera team flew over Colonia and took a picture that came out more clear than the first picture that NASA took. To get the picture was hard work. They usually do not pass over Colonia very often. There is a spacecraft that will fly over the location and scan it like a fax machine. The picture of the face may mean different things to people and some may have different opinions about it. One person said it looked like a mesa formed by lava. If NASA done more research about the face in Colonia they might be able to figure out what it is and what caused it. Until someone says what it really is, it will just be a big mystery. You can spot the head shaped figure from two miles away. Photographing the landform became important to NASA and the Mars Global Surveyor. They also felt that it was important for taxpayers. No matter how cloudy or hard it was to see and capture the face, they still made it work. The crew in the Mars Global Surveyor said there were alien markings that were hidden. When Main's team tried again to find another photo they went on a cloudless day and used the maximum resolution and got another picture. When they used the maximum resolution you could see things that were even on the ground such as planes or pyramids. They also stated that the landform was almost the same as a butte. The landforms were common around the American West.

I believe that the face is just a natural landform because of facts One example of why i believe it's just a natural landform is in the text it states on April 5th 1998 Mars global surveyor flew over colonia and snapped a photo ten times sharper than the original viking photos revealing a natural landform. Another reason is in the text it states on april 8, 2001, a cloudless summer day in colonia Mars global surveyor few close enough for a second look. Another example of why i believe it's just a natural landform is in the text it stats that they had to roll the spacecraft 25 degrees to center the face in the field of view. In the text it also stats that mains team captured an extraordinary photo using the cameras absolute maximum resolution. In the text it also stats each pixel in the 2001 image spans 1.56 meters compared to 43 meters per pixel in the best 1976 viking photo. In the text it also States that it is equivalent of a landform common around the American west. I would understand why someone would believe it was not a natural landform. One reason they may not is in the text it stats it was winter in April 98 it was cloudy time of year on the red plant. In the text it also stats that some Seoul believed aliens marking where hidden by haze. And so because of facts such as it being equivalent to a landform common around the American west i believe it is not aliens. So I hope this proves that the face is just a natural landform.

I am here to teel you why I ehink the, "Face on Mars" is a myth or misunderstanding. The Viking 1 Space craft was circling the plantet when they spotted the resemblence of a face. Here are a few reasons why I think this "Face" is just a misconception. The NASA crew had siumbled upon the image when they were orbiting their sister ship Viking 2 Spacecraft. They may have gotten a clear image of the "Face" but they hadn't known the conditions of the planet before they made the assumption of Martian activity. They plastered it all over the US not knowing if the "Face" was really evidence of alien life on planets; excluding Earth. Garvin recognized ihe landform. He said it had looked like a butte or a mesa he had seen on earth. Who knows if the the landforms on earth can form on a different peanet. Garvin said, and I quote, "It reminds me most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho. That's a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as the Face on Mars." Scienctists figured it was just another Martian mesa, common enough around Cydonia. There have been "buttes" or "mesas" in the region of Cydonia before. I do not understand why this "Face on Mars" is any different if ia was common in the region where it was found. The formation looked like a face. Okay well, sometimes you see random formations on the street with trash. You wouldn't give it a second glance. So, I don't know why this formation on Mars wouad be any different. I believe that the formation is just different shadows coming together to make one big shadow. The brain can do crazy thingi, even trick you at times. I think the formation is just a mind trick that everyone fell for.

Some people believe that the figure on mars is an alien face. Others believe it is just a huge rock formation which resembles a human head. The eyes, nose, and mouth are formed from shadows which resemble this illusion. I believe that this so called "alien monument" is just a landform created by debris and rocks. The eyes, mouth, and nose are shadows of the rocks. It's completely obvious. Sure there might be other living organisms out in the universe and different species but there is also severe sand storms on mars. Which can throw rocks, make formations on the ground, and bury certain things. These reasons support my claim. The storms would throw random rocks into random places creating what at first may look like a face but once you get closer you see that it is, in fact, rocks. When rocks are placed together for a long period of time, especially in mars, they start binding together. I see no other explanation of how this figure was created and I am very confident in my claim.

The Face is a natural landform,it is not something that was created by aliens. Aliens don't exsist so how could it have been from an alien. Mission controllers said that it is not easy to target Cydonia,it is hard work. What the picture actually shows is the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa which is landforms common around the American West. I believe that the Face is just a natural landform because it is hard to find,it actually shows the Martin equivalent of a mesa,and aliens don't exsist. The Face is a natural landform. You can discern things in a digital image three times bigger than the pixel size,so if there were objects in the picture you could see what they were. Each pixel in the 2001 image spamsa 1.56meters, compared to 43 meters per pixel in the best 1976 Viking photo. It also says in the passage that its a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as the Face on Mars. Some people believe that the alien marking were hidden by haze. Thats when mission ccontrollers decided to look again, and thats when they said, "Its not easy to target Cydonia, it is a lot of hard work". With all this data that has been revealed people should think that its just a natural landform. If there was aliens that did this their markings would be other places besides just here. Even though some people aren't satisfied with this more things in the future can happen to make them believe this. Maybe if more pictures are taken then peoples thought of view with change. I believe that its a natural landform because its hard to find, it actually shows the Martin equivalent of a mesa,and aliens dont exsist.

Welcome my name is Bianca a scientist at NASA. Many of you may know about the strange "Face on Mars," and how there are countless rumors about the famous being a natural landform or bona fide evidence of life on Mars. While scientists belive and have configured it is in fact a natural landform skeptics just do not agree. However, May 24, 2001 when the photo was snapped scientists figured it was just another Martian mesa, since it was common around Cydonia. Just this peticular one had unusual shadows that make it look like an Egyptian Pharaoh. When NASA uneiled the image the caption noted "huge rock formation which resembles a human head formed by shadows giving illusion of facial features." They said or reasoned it would be a good way to engage the public and attract attention to Mars. In fact it did! Meanwhile, conspiracy theorists are just glued to the fact that they think the Face is evidence to life on Mars. They say its evidence that NASA would rather hide than show, but reality is us as NASA budget wish there was an ancient civilization on Mars! Although, few scientists believed the Face was an alien artifact conspiracy theorists were driven to prove it was evidence of life. And so on April 5, 1998 Michael Malin and his MOC or Mars Orbiter Camera snapped a picture ten times sharper than the original Viking photos. When the image first appeared on a JPL web site it revealed...a natural landform. Proving there was no alien monument. After all, skeptics were still drilled to the idea that it is bona fide evidence of life on Mars. Conspiracy theorists said perhaps the alien markings were hidden by haze. So our NASA team on April 8, 2001 the global surveyor drew close enough for a second look. Malin's team captured an extraordinary photo using the camera's absolute maximum resolution. Each pixel in the 2001 image spans 1.56 meters, compared to 43 meters per pixel in the best 1976 Viking photo! Finally, after all photos were taken and examined the 2001 pictured demonstrated that what the picture actually shows is the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa-landforms common around the American West. Much like most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho, a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as the Face on Mars. So after all the Face on Mars was acutally just a natural landform. All rumors have cleared the air. Scientists have configured!

First of all i would like to say ,"For one aliens are not real at all so thats out of the convo". I aloso would like to know why is it so crazy for mars to have a face like figure on it. We have volcanos weird rocks all type of stuff , even in las veagas its a figure on the mountens that form the face of the devil . Thats way more scaryer then having a face on mars . But still how do u know aliens are even real ? the face could've came fro anything such as mars getting to hotand starting to brake apart . Neverthless, on april 8th, 2001 a cloudless day in cydonia, Mars Global Surveyor drew close enough for a second look . they had to roll the spacecraft 25 degrees captured an extraordinary photo using the cameras absolute maxuiam resolution . Each pixel was in the 2001 image spans 1.56 meters, compared to 43 meters per pixel in the best 1976 viking photo.

Many people believe that aliens live on Mars and how the usual things on Mars are because of aliens, like this face and I'm sorry to tell you this, but I'm not one of those people. This face was not created by aliens' I can say your ideas are not as reasonable as the way land is form. See over hundreds and thousands of years land is formed and that's all this face is, a landform. Many people are on your side about the exstings of aliens which many people believe in but the only reason most people believe in aliens are because there are so many movies and television shows on aliens it seems real. There are so many land forms that look unusual that are here on earth, but you can't say aliens made them, we except the fact that it's a landform and not that some unknown creature did it. There can be a thousand people saying aliens made the face but no one is going to believe them if they have absolute no proof at all. See for many years now people have been ceiling in to say how they saw a flying Sawyer, we need proof we can't just go off of what someone says and then over half the world believes in something that's that NASA as no proof of. At the end of the day there are all ways those three groups out in the world the ones who believe and care, the ones who don't care about any side and the ones who just don't believe and

Have you heard about the face on Mars? There was indeed something that looked like an enmormous head that was nearly two miles from end to end that seemed to be staring back at the cameras from the Red Planet. This hug face is known as Cydonia. This shadowy face was discovered in 1976 when a NASA spacecraft was circling around the Red Planet. The photos that were taken of the shadows looked like an Egyptian Pharaoh. The text states, "Scientists figured it was just another Martian mesa, common enough around Cydonia, only this one had unusual shadows that made it look like an Egyptian Pharaoh." Some scientists started to believe that the Face was an alien artifact. The text states, "Although dew scientists believe the face was an alien artifact, photographing Cydonia became a priority for NASA when Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) arrived at the Red Planet in Sept. 1997, eighteen long years after the Viking missions end." Mars Global Surveryor flew over Cydonia for the first time, and the team took pictures that were ten times sharper than the original Viking photos. The text states, "Thousands of anxious web surfers wete waiting when the image first appears on a JPL web site, revealing...a natural landform. There was no alien monument after all." Even though people were given that information that the shadowy figure was indeed not an alien monument, some people were still not satisfied. So mission controllers decided to look again. The text states, "What the picture actually shows is the Martian equivanlent of a buttle or mesa-landofrms common aroung the American West." It was decided that the shadowy figure, was just a natural landform. The shadowy figure known as Cydonia that was spotted on the planet Mars, was once thought as a alien artifact. Many studies from scientists have shown and proved that the enormous head was just a natural landform.

Have you ever see an alien? I bet you haven't, so why would you think that aliens would have built a face on Mars? There are numerous reasons why aliens didn't built this Face on Mars. To start off, it's not even a face, just a natural mesa that's been shaped over time. There's no evedence that aliens have made this mesa, and I'll tell you why. One reason this Face wasn't made by aliens is the fact that the Face isn't even a Face. This Face is actually about the same thing as a mesa or a butte. It's not a Face built by aliens but actully a natural landform. The Face has most likely been there for years, just only looks like a face when it's shadow sets on it perfectly. It's just a natural landform that's change over time, creating the face everyone saw. Another reason it wasn't made by aliens is that we have photo evedence. If you take a look at the photo's, you will notice that the one taken in 1976 and the one taken in 2001 are pretty identical. In the 1976 photo, you notice it's very blurry. In the 1998 photo, it's not as blurry but you can't really see a face, but in the 2001 picture, is where you csn tell the big difference. You can clearly see that it's not a face at all, just a natural landform on Mars. You can even tell on the landform where everyone thought the eyes, nose, and mouth went, which is why the illusion made it look like a face. In this essay, I have proven that the Face on Mars isn't a face at all. The Face is actually the equivalent of a mesa or butte. I also used photo evedence to show that the Face is actually a natural landform. I've also explained why the Face was not made by aliens. I hpe you understand why the Face was just a natural landform and not made by aliens.

Scientist at NASA do their best to figure the right information they have about the " Unmasking the Face on Mars " . It was actually a better idea to keep the " Face on Mars " a secret just between the NASA team , then if nothing was bad news it could have been told after getting all the right information . The possiblities on knowing what this is and letting everyone know was very hard . It's been there since 1976 and in 2001 , at last some resoltes on the Face on Mars . NASA is very important , and if they know that it's better not to tell anyone about this , I think the people should respect their decison because they found it . Most importantly not letting people make a big deal out of this because they don't know what it could be yet . Sometime we can't say somethings at the most part , Because it's better not to let anyone know before people go crazy and go around asking a bunch of questions . The Face on Mars was discovered in 1976 , and by the time that has passed , it's easier to see how it actually looks . But of cource you can't just send someone out to space and actually see what's going on . It's not that easy to just do that . There could be some species that are out there somewhere and don't even know about it . A period of time we believed it might have been a alien artifact , but it doesn't look like an alien's face which is something we could be for sure about that . Seeing the picture that the ( MOC ) team revealing the photo of the face , people weren't so satisfied as they thought . The people must be thinking , " There's something up in space , should we be clam or should it be best to be worried ? " , that's what might have happens when people don't listen to what we say is best and do what they think is right . But at the end of all this story and " Oh it''s this " or " No , wait it's actually that " , it turns out that it is actually a Martian equivalent of a butte or of the mesa . It's a common landforms around American West and it's the lava dome that formed an isolated mesa . Which is the same height as the " Face on mars " . Everything is perfectly fine , and everyone can be clam since we found out the actual and correct information and not just some random anwers that people were going around and saying about this .

Some people say that "The Face on Mars" was made by aliens but what the face really is a natural landform on the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa also known as landforms that are common around the American West. Martian mesa, are common enough around Cydonia for it to be a resenable answer. Only this one had unusual shadows that made it look like an Egyptian Pharaoh. The reason that the rock formation resembles a human head is bacause shadows. An the shadows gave the illusion of eyes, nose, and mouth. Sientist only gave it the name "Face on Mars" because, it would be a good way to engage the public and attract attention to Mars. The sientist went back to Mars and found the "Face" and took another picture of it on a clear sunny day you can discern things in a digital image 3 times bigger than the pixel size. So, if there were objects in this picture like airplanes on the ground or Egyptian-style pyramids or even small shacks, you could see what they were! This shows that "The Face on Mars" is just a landform and that there is no Egyptian alians on Mars. The rock formation just has a wierd shadow on it that gives it the unusual nose,eyes, and mouth formation.

This face landform stucture found on Mars was not made by any living source. I belive nature took its course and it so happened to look like a face. Eyes, nose mouth it looks like a face no doubt about it, but it cannot be stuctured by living substances. Most scientists have been saying that this face was made by aliens, but I have to disagree. It just simply can not. I belive that the face on mars is just a natural landform because we do not even know if aliens exist in the first place. There is no prove that aliens exist so why are we jumping into the conclusion, assuming that aliens made this landform. Prove to me aliens exist then we can start thinking if they had anything to do with this. If not then I do not even think that aliens should be in this conversation. Also even If aliens made this landform that looks like a face, how can they make it like that. It is kind of a perfect face, and I belive that you need some technology to build a structure like that. I don't know how they could do all that by hand. Another topic about this landface I want to point out is the three photos. Have you not have noticed how the face changed every couple of years? Well I do. It makes me belive that nature has built that landface throughout the years withe the wind and rain and the planet shaking at times. There is basically no evidence that aliens have built this landface. Well If you still do not belive me and still think aliens have built this landface than I think you are insane because I gave you a bunch of reasons why there is no way and there is no evidence that aliens have built this landface. Everybody should be on my side and say mother nature has built this face, but untill there is prove aliens exist I don't think aliens should be in the topic about this.

I believe that the face is just a natural landform. There are no facts to prove that aliens created that. Also, there are also no facts to prove aliens didn't make that landform on Mars. I will still continue to believe that it is just a natural landform created by the planet Mars in earlier years. I can prove my argument in many ways. For example, it states in the text that" And so on April 5, 1998, when Mars Global Surveyor flew over Colonia for the first time, Michael Main and his Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) team snapped a picture ten times sharper than the original Vikings photo. Thousands of anxious web surfers were waiting, when the image first appeared on a JPL website, revealing. . . A natural landform". Just that last sentence alone can make my argument 10 times better. That statement proves to us, it was just a natural landform. In addition to this, in the article it states" there was no alien monument after all.". Which tells us there was never alien monument and that never was made by aliens. As you can see in the picture, it looks pretty old. Which should really show everyone something. The photo as taken in 1976. With our newer, more advanced cameras it shows that it's just a natural landform on Mars. In the article it states that" As a rule of thumb, you can discern things in a digital image 3 times bigger than the pixel size," he added "So, if there were objects in this picture like airplanes on the ground or Egyptian-style pyramids or even small shacks, you can see what they were!". Which means if we really wanted to, we can capture a picture of the so-called "face" or natural landform. Also, then we would be able to prove what it is and what it is not. There are many other reasons why this argument can be won by either side, but there is never a true answer until someone goes onto the planet Mars and takes a look at the face or landform in person. In fact, I will always stand my ground and say it is just a natural landform on Mars.

A face on Mars? In 2001 there were pictures take by NASA's Viking 1 spacecraft on Mars. Those pictures revealed what many believe was a face. When NASA revealed the picture for all to see they had called it "a huge rock formation." They stated, "it was formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes, nose, and mouth." It then became a pop icon. Some people think the Face is evidence of life on Mars. Theorists say NASA was trying to hide the evidence, where defenders of the NASA budget "wish there was an ancient civilization on Mars." So, in 1998 scientists flew over Colonia taking pictures of what many call the "Face" ten times sharper than before. When those pictures were released it was revealed to be a natural landform. But many argued otherwise. For the third time in 2001, scientists went to take another look. The camera they had used proved to be much more accurate than the one used in the first Viking photo in 76. The pixels of the camera were 1.56 meters compared to 43 meters per pixel. According to scientists if there were any objects in the picture such as airplanes or Egyptian pyramids they would be able to be seen. It is proven that the picture actually showed butte or mesa landform. These landforms are very common around the West. The landform found was even compared to "the Snake River Plain of Idaho." Which is a dome about the same size as the Face on Mars. It is sad to say that there are proven facts that reveal there is no such thing as the "Face on Mars". For years scientists have been studying life on Mars. Even in 1976, 39 years ago!

NASA discovers a mesa and mistakingly takes it as a sign or symbol created by Aliens, First of all we are hard working humans striving everyday wasting time on things that don't make sense but we care about. So even if it was something like going to space for a few days you're down because its something new, Now.. think about this if you were on a ship in space what would you have done? Taken over the world below? No. because you're already gonna be used to space like we are on earth as we also are too much wanting. We can never be satisfied. We want to see it all! But think again is it possible to do these things? Travel in time or Ride a hovercoaster? No. Well at least not in our generation, But a time is coming most likely we will have those things before we even know it. We only can be sure of things we see not what we can hear.

What happens on Mars. On May 24, 2001. One of our spacecraft took many photos of a human face that look like an Egyptian Pharaoh. People think that this is a symbol of life. What they don't know is that we have studied this symbol for a long time and there is no symbol of life on Mars. NASA sent one our space man Michael Main to take some pictures with a better camera, revealing that there is no sign of alien life on Mars. "But not everyone was not satisfied." In April 1998 we sent another spacecraft to take pictures of Mars, but it was to cloudy witch made it look like an alien marking. April 8, 2001, cloudless day, we sent another one of our viking spacecraft with a better camera so that we could see what we were really into. "Main team captured an extraordinary photo using maximum resolution." What the picture actually shows is the martian equivalent of a butte or mesa landforms common around the American West.

What would I say if I were a scientist at NASA discussing the Face with someone who thinks it was created by aliens, when I don't? I would first off say they're are no such things as aliens. There is no evidence that aliens are real. The only evidence we have are pictures that people send in of "UFOs" or "aliens" being spotted. Seriously those pictures could be easily edited with the power of the internet. The Face is just a natural landform! The Face, like many other landforms, looks (hince the name) like a face! Have you ever past by a hill, rock, or any other landform that kind of looks like a human or any other human part? If you have than you know what I'm talking about. Sometimes you start thinking "why does it look ike that?" or "what if someone's body is buried there?". Although the Face looks like a face, it may have not been built by aliens. Like NASA said when they unveiled the image for everyone to see, it's just a "huge rock formation... which resembles a human head... formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes, nose, and mouth.". The Face was just formed by shadows and your eyes playing a little trick on you. We don't have enough evidence to prove that aliens created this, so it's much better if we stick to my idea. It's all the work of your eyes, shadows, and the form of the rock. If only we could go to Mars and figure out the truth.

On May 24, 2001, NASA found something funny on Mars. The Viking 1 spacecraft was taking photos of possible landings sites for Viking 2. During that time, it spotted something that appeared to be an enormous head. It looked like an Egyptian pharoah, but turned out to be a regular, old mesa. It is still debated whether it was created by ancient Martian life, or whether is was just another regular landform on Mars. My fellow co-workers and I thought this was incredible. We had just found something that could have proven ancient life on Mars. It turned out that it wasn't. Later, we figured out that it was another regular Martian mesa. We were so excited when we thought we had just found proof of earlier life on Mars. We thought we had just made one of the greatest scientific discoveries there has ever been. We were joyful when we saw the Face. We thought we found proof of ancient alien life without even looking for it. Some people think that the mesa was actually created by aliens. In paragraph 5, it says that people thought NASA was just trying to hide all of the information. To be honest, we were hoping it was proof of alien life. We wanted to find proof of alien life. Why would we hide that information? That just doesn't make any sense whatsoever. The Face is just a landform. In paragraph 2, it says that Marian mesas were common in the area the Face was in, Cydonia. Also, the shadows were the only things that made the Martian mesa look like an Egyptian Pharaoh. All that says is that a landform could be lucky and have some features that amde it resemble someone. Plus, how would Martians know what a Pharaoh looks like? They would be from Mars and not Earth. They most likely don't know anyone that even looks like an Egyptian Pharaoh. In conclusion, the face is just a natural landform. It may look like a head, but that is just because of the unusual shadows that the mesa has. If my co-workers and I thought this was actually proof of alien life, why would we hide it from you? What is the point in hiding that kind of information? I'll leave you to decide that.

Many people have come to believe that there is a ''face'' on Mars. In May 2001, a spacecraft from NASA spotted something on Mars that they thought looked like a face, but it really isn't. I agree it does look relatively like a face, but I am here to tell you the truth about what that face really is. What the picture actually shows is the martian equivalent of a butte or mesa-landforms common around the American West. Jim Garvin said "It reminds me most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho." If you don't know what that is, its a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as the face on Mars. On April 5, 1998 when Mars Global Surveyor flew over Clydonia for the first time, Michael Malin and his Mars Orbiter camera team snapped a picture ten times sharper than the original Viking photos.(which were not very clear) Thousands of anxious web surfers were waiting for NASA to share the picture. As they posted the picture online, it revealed that it was clearly not a face created by aliens, it was just a landform that looked like a face. But after NASA showed the whole world that there was no face on Mars, not everyone was satisfied. They even said that the face on Mars is located at 41 degrees north martian latitude. And that it was winter in April '98- a cloudy time of year on Mars. They also said that since it was such a cloudy time on Mars that the camera made a mistake because it had to peer through wispy clouds to see the face. Some skeptics even said that perhaps alien markings were hidden by the cloudy haze. I can assure you that those rumors may seem logical, but they are not real at all. Our cameras did not make any mistakes and Mars "face" is just a landform. If you ever hear from anyone that Mars has a face you can tell them that it isn't real and that there are no such thing as aliens on mars nor will there ever be.

When scientists first saw the face, they figured it was just another Martian mesa. Martian mesa's are pretty common in Cydonia, and this is the only one that had unusual shadows that made it look like an Egyptian Pharaoh. After NASA looked at it for a few days they let it out to the public. Scientists believed it was a huge rock formation that just "looks" like a human head. Then, they said that the shadows made it look like it had a nose, eyes, and mouth. The first web site the Face ever appeared on was JPL web site. It showed a natural land form, and no alien monument after all. However, Alien Researchers believe that since MGS had to peer through whispy clouds to see the face that alien markings were hidden by the haze. Because of this, Mission controllers took a second trip. They took better pictures than the Viking photo and had great results. Garvin was the Mission Controller in command and he points out that that things in a digital come up three times bigger than the original image. He also says, "So, if there were objects in this picture like airplanes on the ground or Egyptian-style pyramids or even small shacks, you could see what the were!" He tells us that this is rule of thumb and that he knows what he is doing because this is his job. From this point it would crealy state, comming for Mission Control, that it is in fact not an alien siting. In conclusion, "What the picture actually shows in the Martian equivalent of a butt or masa-landforms common around the American West.

Aliens on Mars making a huge monument is very contarversial. Some people think that the monument is made by aliens but some people think it is man made. But now the "face on mars" is being photo graghed with better detail than ever. The "face on mars" is natural. NASA has sent spacecraft to observe the surface of mars and the first on they sent was Viking 1 took pictures of the surface of mars and there seemed to be a face and they thought that there was an anceint civilaztion that built it. Later on they sent another spacecraft to take even better detail of the surface of mars. And in 1998 they got even more detial than in 1976. Then in 2001 They took pictures of it again and with even more resolution. Others say that it looks like something made by somehing esle other than humans or nature. And they say it has the look of being man made. But it has been photograghed numorous time and with even better detail and it look like it was made by nature not some other beings. It also states in the artical "That a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as the Face on mars." The "face on mars is natural". There is more evidence of it being natural than being made by aliens. The photos are better and they clearly show that it is just a rock formation.

In 1976, Viking 1 snapped a photo of what looked to be a Egyptian Pharaoh. A few days later NASA released the picture to the public. The "Face on Mars" became a pop icon. It starred in a Hollywood film, appeared in books, magazines, radio talk shows, and even haunted grocery store checkout lines for 25 years! Some people still believe that the "Face on Mars" is the work of aliens. I believe the "Face on Mars" is not the work of aliens, but a natural landform. The article gives good evidence that the "Face on Mars" is just another weird natural landform on Mars. In paragraph 5, conspiracy theorists claim the "Face on Mars" is bona fide evidence of life on Mars and evidence that NASA would rather hide. In paragraph 3, NASA unveiled the image for all to see in 1976. The caption noted, "a huge rock formation...which resembles the shape of a human head...formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes, nose, and mouth." The authors reasoned it would be a good way to engage the public and attract attention to Mars; which it certainly did just that. The authors of the article wanted to attract attention towards Mars and NASA even claimed that it was a huge rock formation in the caption. Later, stating that shadows gave the huge rock formation the illusion of eyes, nose, and mouth. On April 5, 1998, when Mars Global Surveyor flew over Cydonia for the first time, Micheal Malin and his Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) team snapped a picture ten times shaper and clearer than the original Viking photos. The picture taken in April of 1998, would most likely not have shadows to give illusions of the face, nose, and mouth. Thousands of anxious web surfers were waiting when the image first appeared on a JPL web site, revealing...a natural landform. There was no alien monument after all. NASA again stating and proving that the "Face on Mars" was just another out of place natural landform on Mars. On April 8, 2001, a cloudless summer day in Cydonia, Mars Global Surveyor drew close enough for a second look. "We had to roll the spacecraft 25 degrees to center the Face in the field of view," said Garvin. "Marlin's team captured an extraordinary photo using the camera's absolute maxium resolution." Here again we can see NASA trying to prove that the "Face on Mars" in still just a weird natural landform on Mars. Someone who stills believes that the "Face on Mars" is the work of aliens might say something like this. The "Face on Mars" is located at 41 degrees north martian latitude where it was winter in April 1998-a cloudy time of year on the Red Planet. The camera on board MGS had to peer through wispy clouds to see the Face. Perhaps alien markings were by haze, skeptics claim. However, that was back in April of 1998, and the most recent photo taken was back in 2001. The photo taken in April 2001, the weather was perfect-a cloudless summer day in Cydonia. The photo taken that year still looks like a natural landform on Mars. The excellent reasons stated above prove yet again that the so called "Face on Mars" is just a natural landform. NASA has clearly proven that the "Face on Mars" is just another strange landform on Mars.

The "Face On Mars" is getting talked about a lot lately. Many people have different opinions about the face. If you aren't familiar with the "face on mars" then you're probably wondering why there is an argument going around. You're probably wondering this exact question: "Why is there a big argument about "The Face On Mars?" The folllowing details and information will be informing you exactly why scientists and theorists are having different opinions about the peculiar face. Some scientists are saying that the face up on the moon was not created by aliens because of all the research they have done with and about it. One example that tells you why it isnt an alien artifact is the shadows. The only way the messa (face on the moon) was able to have facial features was because of the shadows that was cascading down upon it. The shadows gave an illusion of eyes, a nose, and also a mouth. Another example, would be the pictures that the scientists have taken. The first picture that was taken was taken on a cloudy day. The picture was to blurry to be able to make out any details. In 1998, Michael Malin and his MOC team took another picture that was ten times sharper than the first. One of the cameras they had contributed greatly to the search, since that camera was so sharp they would have easily been able to find any markings from extraterrestrial beings. Also another detail helping the scientists was the weather. The weather took a massive part in this study. Since it wasn't a clear day at all and there were "wispy clouds", like in paragragh eight, the MOC team could not get a clear picture. When the team comes back to take yet another picture it is a clear day and with that clear day they are able to pick out any details from the "artifact" if there are any to pick out. A final example, is how they compared the face to a formation on Earth. The scientists compared the face to the Snake River Plain of Idaho because of how similar they are. They are similar in a way because of the isolated messa, height, and landforms. Theorists are saying the exact oppsoite from the researchers. Here is an example fo why they thought it was a true artifact. A few scientists themselves thought that is wasn't just a landform but something more. Since the scientists believed many people instantly believed too. They didn't think about the research that was done, but they chose to believe the few scientists. An example that would support the idea of them believing, is that there were many movies made about the face. Many people believe everything they hear and what they see on T.V. A final example is, how the skeptics thought it was created. "If the aliens didn't create it then how did it form?" That question was most likely going through their mind, trying to figure out if they should believe science and research or they should believe movies and others. Yes, i understand how skeptics actually believe that the face was made by aliens because they dont know how it was created. They don't know who created it either. Scientists are proving that it was weather that created the formation and maybe even astroides. Theorists may also thinking that the haze prevented the scientists from seeing the alien's markings. If weather and haze prevented that then why didn't the scienists see the markings on the next photo that they took. That photo was even ten times shaprer. The examples I have lsited help inform you why there is an argument going on about the face. Science clears and explains a lot more phenonmon than opinions and belifes do.

I know people think the face on Mars is something that was created by some kind of life, but really it is not. This is acually just a landform. The face was found in the region of the red planet called Cydonia. It is very hard for NASA to get the picture because they have to angle the satalite just right. I am not trying to be pestimistic but, NASA has seen landforms on Mars before and the article says,"the mouth, nose, and eyes are allusions caused by shadows". The facts just dose not add up to their being life on Mars. This face is just a landform. There are many ways this landform could have happend. For example, a duststorm, astroids crashing on the planet, or underground volcanos. These are all examples of how the face could have been created. The article says it was caused by butte or mesa. Time for everyone to come up with a new theory! This face was found in the area Cydonia. One day the aircraft Viking 1 was circaling the plant and found the face. Could you imagine the scientist face when the aircraft reported it back. A few days later they released it to the public. Lots of people were confinced that it was caused by some kind of lifeform, but really it was not. It was hard work for NASA to get the picture because they had to rotate the aircraft at 30 degrees. This was not easy because if they went to far Nasa would miss the face. If they did not go all the way around Nasa would still miss it . It had to be perfect. It could have been 29 degrees, one of, but it did not matter it would still miss it. It had to be perfect. NASA finnaly got the picture and proved that there was no lifeform. The nose, mouth, and eyes are caused by shadow illusions. They might have been formed by astroids crashing there, but are most likely shadow illusions. These illusions are caused when the Mars acsis are tillted a certain way and the sun hits it. This is most likly how the shadow allusion happened. This is what scientist says caused the illusion. In conclusion there were many ways for this landform to happen. Do not think this was caused by some kind of life form because there is not enough proff. There are many ways this could have been formed. For example. A dust storm, or underground volcano the list goes on. It may never be solved what caused it. Just face it it is like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

The face on Mars is nothing but a natural landform. Contrary to popular belief, it is just a rock formation that coincidentally looks like a face. Scientists figure it is just another Martian mesa, which is common around Cydonia. The scientists at NASA made it a priority to obtain a clear photo of the face on Mars, due to the unlikely possibility that it is in fact, an alien artifact, for which they wanted a clear answer. When Mars Global Surveyor flew over Cydonia, it snapped a photo, much clearer than the one obtained by the Viking. When the photo surfaced online, it proved to be nothing but a natural landform. However, some people were not satisfied with this discovery. Conspiracy theorists began to theorize that there were alien markings hidden by haze, which caused for another search to get an even clearer picture, which was not easy. The photo obtained on April 8, 2001 was a phenomenal photo, which proved the face on mars to be a mesa, nothing but a happy accident, you could say. Conspiract theorists also believe that NASA is hiding evidence from the general public, which is absurd. A discovery like that of an ancient alien civilization on Mars would benefit NASA. So in conclusion, the face on Mars is something much like the Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho, just a natural landform.

As a scientist people have been discussing the face with someone who thinks it was created by aliens. But as you get into the story they are trying to convince someone that the Face is just a natural landform. NASA'S Vicking 1 spacecraft was circling the planet while photos are being taken of possible landing sites for it's sister ship. Viking 2, Spotted the shadowy likeness of a human face. There had to have been an degree of surprise among mission controllers back at the Jet Propulsion Lab when it face appeared on the monitors. NASA unveiled the image for all to see.. the caption noted a"huge rock formation.... Which resembles a human head... formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes,nose ,and mouth." As the authors reasoned it would be a good way to engage the public and attract attention to mars. So, as a scientist you learn that some things are kinda just meant to catch peoples attention.

The thing they saw is just a natural landform. There is no evidence that someone could have made it. Its just the was people look at it making them think that its a face. Things occur and just move things and make them look different. they may also made different shapes and objects. there is no evidence that aliens could of done it. My opinion is that the way things move things could have crashed into it and made it look like a face. Its just something natural that happened. They don't have enough evidence to show what caused the face to form. Many things could have happened for the face to form but it doesn't mean that aliens or ancient things could of done this. NASA has been putting a lot of money into this to see what caused this thing to form. They think there is life on that planet and that is what caused it to form and something made that thing that looks like a face. They saw that there wasn't any alien movement that it ws just a natural land form and thats what is. No aliens could have done this face. The thing that they thought was a face was just a mesa. All of this was just that they thought aliens had done the face. but then they discovered that there was no alien movement and figured out that it was just a mesa. they were done with their research because they had nothing else to do with the mesa that they thought something had formed it.

NASA is good at its job. Give them a break, they can't keep trying to gain information about this so-called face for everyone to see. At least there giving you a possible explanation of what it could be. You guys just keep saying things you know nothing about, NASA is the scientist here. Plus there's no such things as aliens. Who would even think that there could possibly alien on Mars. NASA is for the study on space, and just to think to guys think you know more than them is ridiculous. I understand you have your beliefs, but sometimes you really just ahem to sit back and say is this logic. If you're at the point where you say yeah this is absolutely right, there's obviously some mental issues going on. So band on things in this passage such as the images, you never know the NASA company could b sneaky and photoshop the picture. Just for the controversy that's going on now. In the first picture it resembles nothing but a landform like structure. So as I was saying in the first paragraph stop trying to get attention on some so little.

Now today I am going to disprove your statement that aliens created the Face seenon the red planet of Mars. The first thing that you have wrong is that the Face seen on Mars is of alien orgin. The Face that you see in the picture is just an oddly shaped Martian mesa. In fact there are very common on that region of Mars so for all we know there could very well be more oddly shaped mesas in that area. The fact is that you miss read the caption of the picture or didn't even look at it at all. If you would've you should have seen the caption stating that the reason it resembles a human head is because of the shadows giving the illusion of eyes, a nose, and a mouth. The only reason the let people see that photo is because they wanted more people to be intrested more in Mars. Plus on April 5, 1998 NASA reaveled to everyone on their website the Face was mearly an oddly shapped Natural landform. In conclusion there are several ways that we could disprove your statement. The first being that it is just a mesa which dosen't have a distinct form, which means that if another one forms it could very well be a dog or a cat. The second being that you may have just miss read or not have read the caption. Which clearly states that the reason the Face looks like that is because of the shadows and thats why it has a mouth, a nose, and eyes. Those are just two major reasons we know it's definetly a natural landform and not an alien made face.

You may think that the Face on Mars was created by aliens. That is not true. The Face is just a natural ladform. There is a lot of evidence to support my argument. Like it is simply just a mesa, the photo Malin took, and there are many similar landforms around the American West. Certainly it wasn't created by aliens! It is just a mesa. First, Martian mesas were common. They were very common around Cydonia as said in the article. Second, it did look like a face. That is because of the unusual shadows that formed to look kind of like an Egyptian Pharaoh. Third, it gives an illusion. The illusion is of eyes, a nose, and a mouth. These are the reasons that shows that the Face is a Martian mesa. Michael Malin's photo shows that it is a landform. First, Malin's photo was taken ten times sharper. It lets it have a more clear image. Second, people think that the alien markings were hidden by haze. Though on the second picture it still doesn't show any sign of alien markings. Third, on April 8, 2001 another photo was taken. That day it was a cloudless summer day. Malin's tame captured a fantastic photo. It still didn't show that the Face was created by aliens. The photos that Malin and his team took were very useful. It is similar to the world in a way. Using photos of the Face they would be able to see if there was any sign of life. Like small homes, or shacks. Second, it is defenitly equivalent to a butte or mesa. There is so much information to prove that. Third, it has landforms in common around the American West. Gavin stated 'It remids me most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho. It is similar in a way to America. Now you know the reasons why the Face on Mars was not created by aliens. There is so mush evidence to prove it. Like my examples which are it is actually a mesa, Michael's photo shows no signs of aliens markings or their homes, and the Face is similar to some landforms in the American West. There is a lot more evidence to prove that the Face on Mars is not a creation by aliens, but a normal Martian landform.

If you thimk it is a alien civilisation you are mistaken. If you think it is where is the evadence like houses. I think it is a natural land like we have here on earth. It can be an astriod hiting the earth or it could very well be a mountain like we have on earth. Another thing i think it could be is an un earupted valcanneo like an other thing we have on earth. Also it can be where the inside of the planit has bin pushed out to cause a natural land form. There can also be other things it can be. The people that think that it is an alien civilisation they have to back there rason up with a lot of information and very detaild information to get me on there side. Even then I probibly wont believe them it would have to be a very low chance i would take there side.

Was the Face on Mars created by aliens? No,The Face on Mars is just a natural lanform because scientist figured it out that it was just another Martian mesa, the rule of thumb, Micheal Malin and his team snapped a picture of the Face revealing a natural landform. First in paragraph one and three, The region where the face was found is called Cydonia and scientists had also found that it just another Martian mesa, common enough around Cydonia. Next in paragraph eleven, Jim Garvin, chief scientist for NASA's Mars Exploration Program, explained that "As a rule of thumb, you can discern things in a digital image 3 times than the pixel size, so if there were objects in the this picture like airplanes on the ground or Egyptain-style pyramids or even small shacks, you can see what they were!' Finally in paragraph seven, Michael Malin and his Mars Orbiter Camera team snapped a picture ten times sharper than the original Viking photo. Thousands of web surfers waiting when the image first appeared on a JLP web site,revealing a natural landform. There was no alien monument. In conclusion, the Face was not created by ailens ,but just a natural landform because scientists have figured out that a mesa is a common lanform, the rule of thumb, and MOC team snapped a picture of the Face revealing a natural landform.

Imagine it's 1976 and Nasa reveals an interesting photo looking down upon Martian landscape. The photo catches your eye as it contains what apears to be a giaint face made of rock coming out of the sand. Nasa states that the "face" is a huge rock formation that resembles a human head formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes, nose, and a mouth. But you also hear other people saying that the face is an ancient alien artifact! What do you believe? Pop culture quickly jumps on the idea of aliens because that view point is exciting. Meanwhile NASA is a government backed and very credible source. I say that the educated person would listeto NASA. I believe that the "face on Mars" is just another natural landform becasue the face looks just like a butte or mesa does on Earth, NASA's powerful cameras haven't captured anything alien looking on near the face, and becasue the majority of NASA and other creidble scientists don't believe that the face is alien. According to the article Martian mesas are common around Cydonia, the area where the famous picture of the face was taken. There is nothinig unusal or different about this specific mesa exept the shadows on top of it. These shadows give the illusion of eyes, nose, and a mouth. Mesas and buttes are landforms that are also very common on Earth around the American West. The Middle Butte in Idaho is a an isolated mesa about the same height as the Face on Mars. I'm sure if pyramids started being discovered on the surface of mars thats one thing, but just a single mesa that looks a bit like a face is no reason to immediatly blame aliens. Another reason why the face is just a natural landform is because we have seen proof that is nothing but a landform.. On April 8, 2001 which was a cloudless day in Cydonia, another picture of the face was taken with a very powerful camera that used its maximum resolution for the picture. When you look at this picture it is almost hard to immgine a face even being there! The illusion of a nose, eyes, and a mouth is gone. All that remains in this picture are some cracks and rough edges on the rock structure. To many seeing is believing and this picture has allowed many to see the truth that the "face on mars" is nothing but a myth. Some suporters of the idea that the structure was created by aliens argue that NASA is hiding more evidence and mabey even distorting images that point to the face being built by aliens. This is wrong because alien civilizations would increase NASA's funds and popularity. Also it would be almost immpossible to keep an alien secret from the public with so many immployees knowing. These examples show why the "face on mars" is just another natural land formation.

The face on Mars was first found by the spacecraft called Viking one and was curling Mars when it found the face. Alot of people believe it is a real artifact. NASA has taken more pictures to prove that it is in fact not an artifact. People believe there just covering it up so people won't know about it. But that is not true it would benefit NASA if it were a true artifact. The face on Mars is just a landform because of the pictures we took we could not see and form of building structure. One thing that brings me to this conclusion is the rocks and shadows made it look and seem very real. The text states "...formed by shadows...". TV and other things are what is drawing the attention to the matter and they are what's broadcasting to the world that it is real. The text states" It starred in a Hollywood film, appeared in books, magazines, radio talk shows..." This brings me to the conclusion that in fact it is not real but was made real by television and other things. People just donut want to listen to the since behind it. If it where in fact real it would benefit NASA.

For years, many people have argued with scientists (at NASA) that the Face on Mars is alien made. Conspiracy theorists and most of the general public are set on believing that the Face is an ancient alien artifact. But, NASA has reliable evidence to back up and prove that the Face is just a fascinating natural landform. First off, you cannot argue with the pictures that were taken of the Face. Even from the first picture ever taken of the landform in 1976, scientists were able to conclude that the Face was just another Martian Mesa, that just resembled a human face, specifically an Egyptian Pharaoh. In this photo, there was no evidence of any alien markings on the structure. On the other hand, conspiracy theorists and skeptics argue that the picture isn't clear enough for someone to make out any markings on the landform. So, in 1998, another photo was taken of the face. It was ten times sharper than the original Viking photo, and it still revealed only just a natural landform. People still weren't satisfied and pressed on though, arguing that the picture was taken on a cloudy day and the haze in the photo blocked out any special markings or evidence. But then a couple years later in 2001, scientists got another image of the Face on a clear day with the camera's absolute maximum resolution, (and you would be able to see any objects or markings that was there) and there was still no signs of markings indicating alien interaction. Also, the face is just another Martian Mesa, a natural landform. I will say it is a fascinating landform, but it is still natural. The Face resembles natural landforms found common in the American West, like buttes and mesas. It especially looks similar to the Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho. This proves that yes, it is possible to have natural landforms like the Face, and it is comparable to some of the landforms we have here on Earth. In conclusion, there is multiple credible sources to back up scientist's (at NASA) claim that the Face is just a natural landform. There are a few different photos of the structure, each photo having higher resolution and being easier to make out than the previous one. With all three photos, there is no evidence of any special markings or objects that would suggest or prove of alien life. Also, there are similar landforms like the Face here on Earth so it's not like it is a freak of nature that nobody could ever see how something so interesting was made; it's comparable to things here even in America. Even with all of the conspiracies, NASA has reliable and credible sources to prove that the Face is just a natural landform.

A few days ago we discovered a gigantic landform on the surface of Mars that you thought was a human face. This structure that we found is not very detailed from what we can tell, if it was a face than it would most likely be a lot more detailed than what we can tell it is. Why do you think that there is alien life on Mars, it is just so unlikely that I am surprised that someone as smart as you would believe in something so crazy? After you read this you are not going to believe that this is an alien object on the surface of the Red Planet. First, the picture that we took is extremely blurry because each pixel is forty-three meters! Maybe in the future we will be able to get a clearer picture. But for the time being we have to deal with what we have even if it is not all that great. Earlier you said that you thought we were covering up that we found extra martial life up there. Even if we did why would we cover that up? If we found out that we were not alone in the universe we would be funded even more that we are now. It would be insane to cover something that big up. Only a mad man would to that! In a few days both you and I will be hearing a lot from the theorist that we are covering a ton of stuff up, well I can assure you that we would never do that due to the punishments if we were bought. For now, we will just have to assume that all we are seeing are shadows from the sun. That is just the must logical explanation that we can think of, if we told the media that we have no clue what the object is the rumors would be worse than what they already are going to be! So if you want to go and talk to the media about what you believe that you better but your name on it, or I will make your life miserable! So I suggest that you keep your mouth closed. In conclusion, do you still think that the face on Mars is an alien made object? If later in the future when we get clearer pictures, and it turns out to be a face than I am truly sorry that I didn't believe you in the first place. But if it was a face that we would be cover it up? If we discovered aliens we would be funded so that we would be able to put somebody on Mars! But that will not happen for many years. Also, since the picture was so blurry, and we used to the best camera we might never know.

Aliens may or may not be real, but if they were, they could not make this. I know this is just a natural landform. Yes it is weird that this landform looks like a face I agree with that, but saying aliens made it is just crazy. Here are some reasons on how I know and can prove that aliens did not make this. First if aliens did make this how could they make it. They had to have some kind of machine or something they couldn't have just built it with their hands. So if they did make it we would have seen how like some machine like I said before. Also, they would have left some kind of footmark or something they couldn't have and not left a single mark. The second reason is if aliens made it doesn't you find it weird that it looks like a human face. Where or how would they get the idea of making it look like our faces. The only way they could do that is if they went to earth and saw our faces there and if there aliens on earth NASA would be the first to know. The third reason is in unmasking the face on Mars it says in paragraph 12 "What the picture actually shows is the martian equivalent of a butte or mesa-landform common around the American West." Then to prove it even more it says this. "It reminds me most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho." "That's a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the SAME height as the face in mar." So that just said that these "faces" are common around the American West, and I'm pretty sure aliens are not on earth. So unless aliens came to earth made a face and then left without NASA seeing it would be impossible. These are my 3 reasons on why I think it is impossible that aliens made it. It's just a natural form. I am not saying aliens are not real but I am saying that they did not make this face without us seeing it.

Timmy thinks the faces on Mars were created by aliens,but i keep telling him its just natural landforms that we made and it looks like faces. It happens even on Earth, it is common around the American west. In the viking photo they didn't have that well equitment to see what it actually was, so they thought it was created by aleins. In 2001, NASA wanter to show the world and the captioned a note by it saying "huge rock formation," but people just saw a face because of the shadows in it. The authors reasoned it to be a good idea to engage people and give attention to Mars. The "Faces on Mars" started to become popular, they started to make movies, books, magazines, radio talk shows, and even haunted grocery store checkout lines. In April 1998 they flew over it again, they had better technology,and they didn't see a face all they saw was a natural landform. Then in 2001 they did it again and didn't see anything just the landform and they had much better technology where you could see a small shack and nothing was there. These Faces were just landforms that had a shadow that made it look like a face. Every plantet has weird landforms, and they didn't really have good techlology back then. Now they have alot better technology were they can drive robots on mars and see all these weird landforms and see if there is aliens.

A UFO lands in your front yard. Apart from the screaming, you hear beeps and boops. You turn to the side and see an Alien standing in your doorway. He opens his mouth and a loud alarm sound comes out. You open your eyes and then realize it was all a dream. That's the only reasonable explanation for you seeing a UFO or an alien. To this day scientist have not encountered signs of life on any other planet. So what makes you think aliens could have created the face on Mars? Two decades and a half ago scientist discovered a face like shape on Mars. It was about two miles long. Scientist claimed it was staring at the cameras, but there was nothing surrounding it. No power tools, or hammers, not even a few sculpting tools. How would aliens create such a thing? With alien-y tools? Magic powers maybe? No, because it was a natural formation. Scientist figured out it was just another Martian mesa, which are frequent around the Cydonia. According to the article the only thing different about this one was that it "had unusual shawdows make it look like an Egyptian Pharaoh." Which made people go wild. When Mars' face started its fifteen minutes of fame it became a beloved "pop icon." It was featured in movies, books, and radio talk shows. It "haunted grocery checkout lines" for years. That is when people, mostly conspiracy theorists, started thinking "What if aliens formed it?" Some scientist even started to believe that it was an alien artificat. So more research was done. Scientist took more pictures, which were ten times sharper than the first ones, and stutdied them. Discovering, the obivious, that it was a natural landform. There was dissapointment all over the place, not only for the people, but scientist too. It was a mesa, a natural landform. It was even compared to the "MIddle Butte in the Snaler River Plain of Idaho". Since then the popularity of the face has gone downhill. Maybe one day it'll resurface on the social media as a funny meme that teens will talk about for two weeks. Tragic.

The Face is a natural Martian mesa, like many others. People have wondered if aliens have built it before, but they had no proof. NASA has already proven with evidence it is just a natural land formation. First, NASA decided to release the pictures of the Face for the public to see, but they only did this to get more people intrested in Mars! To prove that the Face was just a land formation naturaly made, NASA decided to show better quality photos to the public. So they sent out pictures that were ten times sharper to show it was a ROCK formation. Also if there was life on Mars NASA would benifit from it, so i dont see why they would lie. Next, Mars is a planet with many unknown discoverys but the ones that NASA do figure out the more information we gain for the future. For example in the text it says that Mars has many Martian mesas, so it could be a coinicidence that ONE looks like a face. This doesn't prove there isn't life on Mars but for the information we have at the moment it is doubtful. Lastly, There are many people in the would who make this stuff up, so why would believe THEIR opinion over NASA who research on space. Don't forget that the only reason they got the information of the Face was because NASA unvieled it. If they had something they didn't want us to know about they would have kept it to themselves. The Face is just a rock formation. Others might say something like it looks like a human face, or why would it look like a face if the life on Mars hadn't built it. The reason it looks like a face is because the mesa formed that way. It couldn't even have been built by life on Mars because it's over 2 miles wide, so it has to be a land formation.

The Face on Mars is just a landform. NASA scientists figured out that it was just another Martian mesa which was common around a region of Mars called Colonia. Colonia is the region of Mars where the Face was located. Scientist said that the Face was just huge rock formations that resembled a human head. The defenders of the NASA budget wished that there was an ancient civilization on Mars. NASA decided to look again because they felt it was important to taxpayers. On April 5,1998, Mars Global Surveyor flew over Colonia for the first time. They snapped a picture that revealed what was only a natural landform. Some people still didn't believe and said it could be clouds blocking out evidence. On April 8, 2001, a cloudless summer day Mars Global Surveyor flew close enough for another look. They captured a high-quality photo with maximum solution. If there were objects in the 2001 picture you could see what they were. What the picture shows is the Martian form of a Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho. They were common around the American West.

Have you ever wondered if there are any other living things in the universe? Maybe some where in a far away place, maybe on our neighbor Mars. A picture surfaced during 1976 showing what looks like a face on Mars, people were saying that it is in fact a fact of aliens on Mars, but it could also be a landform. First of all, the face in 1976 is much more noticable than it is in the most recent picture from 2001. Also, if it were a face were is the rest of its body? Is it just a huge head sitting in the dirt. As well, how would such a huge person fit on the planet? The picture's pixels come in at about 46 meters per pixel. Could a face really be that big. Conspirests can believe that it is proof there is other living things on Mars, but wouldn't finding something on Mars benifit NASA's budget? NASA could be getting millions if not billions of dollars if they found other living things on Mars. Goverments would be preparing journeys and preparing astronauts to go investigate the face. Also, if NASA was hiding it from the public, the would lose more money because they could start fundraisers to help send people and robots to Mars. They would be credited world wide for their findings. The people who controled Viking 1 and 2 would gain publicity from their findings as well. Why would NASA hide something that could put so much money into research? They wouldn't, it cannoto be anything else other than a landform. Plus, wouldn't we see many other things surrounding the place. If the face was really part of an extra terestrial civilization, why would they have just a face and no other things surrounding it. Wouldn't there also be a little person or something walking around the place. Some may say that they are all inside teh face, but then shouldn't there be a visible way of entry into the place. They can't just breach a wall and rebuild it every time they want to enter the place. The camera pixels in the most recent 2001 photo is 1.56 meters per pixel. That is shorter than most teenagers, The photo would cleary show some sort of person or another form of transportation in the photo. I personally doubt that the face isn't home to other people who live on Mars. I maybe wrong, but until I can see actual information showing that there is and photos, I don' t believe it. Maybe one day there will be a voyage to this face on Mars, but until then I belive that it is just a landform. Other people may believe what they want, but it looks exactly like a landform to me. There isn't enough facts to support it is something else, but unless there is a voyage to this place, then it will continue to be just a landform to me.

The "Face on Mars" has since become a pop icon. It has starred in a Hollywood film, appeared in books, magazines, radio talk shows- even haunted grocery store checkout lines for 25 years. Some poeple think the Face is hard core evidence of life on mars. Meanwile, defenders of the NASA budget wish there was an ancient civilization on Mars. The face on mars is a natural landform. Mars has powerfull winds just like we do on earth which if the dirt gets built up on rocks it can cause a face looking shape. The face is just a maountain with craters up at the top which makes it look somewhat like a human face. Mission controllers prepared to look again. "It's not easy to target Cydonia," says Garvin. "In fact, it's hard work." Mars gGlobal Surveyor is a mapping spacecraft that normally looks straight down and scans the planet like a fax machine in narrow 2.5km-wide strips. "We just don't pass over the Face very often." he noted. But not everyone was satisfied. The Face on Mars is located at 41 degrees norht martian latitude where it was winter in April '98- a cloudy time of year on the red planet. The camera on board MGS had to peer through wispy clouds to see the Face. Perhaps, said skeptics, alien markings were hidden by haze. In conclution, the face could be real or it could be a fake. But from teh research that we have conducted at NASA concludes that it is just a natural landform caused by geological occurences.

Do you believe in life on Mars? Well I don't and here is why. There is no evidence what io ever of life on Maro. What about the Face on Mars you ask? Well I was hopeing you would ask about that. You see that is what thii essay io about. The Face on Mars. The Face on Mars is just a naturel land form. From 1976 to 2001 People have been taking pictures of ehe Face on Mars and every time they took a picture of the Face on Maro they got closer to it and ao you look at the pictures you can see that the space in which the Face on Mars is located you can see ahat ii is just a mesa that formed naturely on Maro. So in conclusion the Face on Mars is just a naturel land form created by god when he made the universe. Oh! You are an atheast? Weal then looks like we wila have to have a nother conversaiion some time? Well until then, bye.

How can aliens live their! It can not be true! Having aliens on Mars has been a big arguement for some time now. Some people may think that aliens planted or made this mysterious face on Mars. If aliens made the face they would have tracings of something odd on the face. In paragrpah 12 its tells you how the picture actually shows the Martian equivalent to a butte or mesa, which is landforms around the American West. The face on mars is about the same height as the lava dome that takes up a form of an isolated mesa. The pictures in the beginning of the passage you can see that in 1976 the object looked like a face, but in 2001 the object looks like broken down sand. Next, the scientist does not have proof that it could be any signs of aliens surviving on Mars. In paragraph 7 it say that thousands of anxious web surfers were waiting when the image first appeared on a JPL web site , reavealing a natural landform. Also in paragraph 3 it pronounced that the face was a huge rock formation. Which resembles a human head formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes , noes, and mouth (3). Finally, The face on mars just was a thing to benefit NASA. It states in paragraph 3 in the end that it would be a good way to engage the public and attract attention to Mars. This face became into something huge. It has become a pop icon, starred in a Hollywood film, apperead in books, magazines, radio talk shows, and grocery lines. This face on mars was just put into the public to have attention drawn to NASA. In conclusion, their were no aliens on Mars planting faces because, the face on Mars was just a benefit to Nasa, there was not any proof or sign of aliens on Mars, and it looked equivalent to a butte or mesa. Most people know that their were not any aliens on Mars because their was not any proof. One day researchers might find traces of aliens!

I am here to discuss with you the topic of the landform on Mars. Yes, it's the one shaped like a human face. I have been getting many claims of it being a monument built by ancient life on Mars. Believe us, here at NASA we would love for the claims of alien life to be true, but we've been given substantial information that those claims are incorrect. There are many reasons why these claims are invalid. First of all, landforms like the so-called face appear on our home planet it would be easy to find; secondly the appearance of a face was given merely by the casting of shadows over the surface over the red plant; and lastly, the intensely zoomed in picture showed no sign of anything that would hint at any type of civilization. Here on Earth, we have tons of natural landforms created by erosion, glaciers, and the sea. The landform on Mars appears to be a mesa, a landform that happens to be very common in the western area of America. The climate of Mars can be quite similar to that of the West, and that hints to us that because of the hot climate that usually occurs with the sun shining on Mars, this landmark has formed only because of the climate and conditions of the area. It is a reasonable idea to consider and should be proof enough, but there are still some sceptics so I will continue. Some may say, even if it was a natural landform, how on Earth does it look exactly like a human face? Well first of all, people see what they wish to see. They think it's a face because it is such a fascinating and fantastic thing to think of. "A human face on Mars?! No way!" The landform isn't actually shaped like a face, it is merely the shadows that are cast on it that cause the appearance of it being a face. However, upon closer inspection by NASA the landform was revealed merely to be a completely normal patch of land, nothing special at all. If all of what I'm saying isn't enough to convince you, I have got one more important point to make. NASA has gone to extensive lengths to examine this landform that has caused such a big fuss among the people. In the April of 2008, scientists set out to explore the face of Mars once more. It was an apparently cloudless day and it was that day that they took the picture. The picture was zoomed in as far as it could have been, so that anything on the face of the planet could be seen. There weren't any signs of life, no tents where extra-terrestrial life would sleep and no proof of anything building this landform. To sum all of this up, there is simply just no way that this landform could have been built by alien life. There are too many facts and too much research done on this landform, we know all there is to know and what we can say for sure is, there is simply no way the Face was createed by Aliens. You'll just have to face the facts and wonder how on earth this picture managed to look exactly like a human face. The mystery was fun while it lasted, but now that we have the facts, it is time to lay this case to rest.

In the Story "Unmasking the Face on Mars." The face on Mars has apparently been founded in 1976, NASA claimed the face was formed by an alien, Here is where I come in, The world had made a bunch of movies including aliens from Mars, Mars, for hundreds maybe thousands of years have been the 'Aliens home'. Why I think that this 'face' Is just a natural forms because, take the moon for example, there is a bunch of hilly things on there, It just so happened that there is a rock on Mars that looks like a face. Marines team captured an extraordinary photo using the cameras absolute maximum resolution. That is how they captured the 'face' on Mars, Of course there it's gonna be an extraordinary thing that there is a face on Mars, There are so many things in the world that are strange, and nobody seems to find those strange, maybe it's because the 'face' specific takes place on Mars. huge rock formation. . . Which resembles a human head. . . Formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes, nose, and mouth. This supports my claim because maybe the 'face' is a rock that just so happened to look like a face, NASA sometimes takes things to far when it comes to things like these. huge rock formation...." It basically says that the rock is a formation ".......giving the illusion......" IT also stated that the rock gave an illusion that is has eyes, nose, And a mouth. I clearly give out that opinion that if you put it together you get "A huge rock formation giving the illusion........." and so on. I also think that The 'face' Is just a rock the looks like a face, clearly I stated that. Let's just break it down The face is a rock, which appeared on Mars, NASA said it gave the illusion that it was a face, NASA also believes that since it was on Mars, Aliens created it. That's what you get when you break down the story, Even if it was created by aliens, who cares, it's a rock, there is nothing special about it except how it looks like a face, just because it was on Mars doesn't mean aliens created it. I know being creative is an amazing thing, but it's just a rock the formed into a face, just like how over times 300 million years ago when dinosaurs exist the earth was whole, and over time it TRANSFORMED into what it has become now. Notice how I used the word transformed, ..."over time it transformed ....." in the text... "Huge rock Formation." It is just a rock that's looks like a face, and just because it's on Mars don't mean a thing.

I'm Evan and a guy at my work named John says that the Face on Mars was created by alien's. I told him "It's not created by aliens and me and others at NASA have proof". He said "show me the proof than EVAN!!!". So I then went to get my boss and asked him if I could see the pictures and articles about the face on Mars. He said I couldn't see them right away because he needed them so I gad a wait a whole day. The next day my boss handed me the paper and I was so excited to go to John's face and show him the facts. The first things I showed him were the 3 pictures because it shows how it looked over all those years. Then I showed what NASA said, which was "Huge rock formation which resembles a human head formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes, nose, and mouth." The authors reasoned it would be a good way to engage the public and attract attention to Mars. It was a pop icon, it starred in a Hollywood film, appeared in books, magazines, radio talk shows, even haunted grocery store checkout lines for 25 years!!! I told john "Even only a bit of scientists believe the face was an alien aircraft.' Encountering the face on Mars was not an easy task I told him, and they just don't pass over it very often said Gavin I told him. They even took other pictures where the pixel size was 3 times bigger so if there were other objects like aircraft or pyramids they would be able to see them. The face looks like Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho. Then I asked him "Now was that enough proof for you to believe me' and he said I'll tell you tomorrow. John went home and did research, when he came back he said "yes I believe you now." After that I was like want to be friends, and he said Yes.

The Viking 1 photo taken in 1976 is a photo from Mars of what seems to be a face-looking structure. Many believe that this is some sort of alien life form left behind, but some believe the reality, in which this is just some type of land structure or a land-form. This land structure has shadows and divets on it that resemble the facial details of a human face. NASA has been searching for alien life-forms or any life on another planet for years and some believe that they have finally accomplished this. A lot of people think that this is some sort of fossil or ingravement of a once-living alien or a species of unknown classification. As this very well could be the case, with the fact that it is sort of engraved into the ground of the planet, the most likely explanation of this abnormality is this--this is a coincidental pattern on this rock-like form. There is no more to it. Coinicidental. As stated in Paragraph 5, this form has spraked a lot of attention throughout the years. Many people believe many different theories; some reasonable, and some not. Conspiracy Theorists state that they believe NASA is hiding more evidence about this, but that cannot be true, because if this was a life-form, NASA would be rolling in fame, not hiding it from the world. This is Mars we are talking about. We have tried for years and years to get human life onto this planet, and to attempt at finding life as well. The conditions of Mars are unbearable, so there is no possible way a creature could survive. We're not ET. As stated in Pararaph 12, Garvin says, "It reminds me most of Middle Butte n the Snake River of Idaho." This is most definently a landform. Mars is considered the Red Planet. Mars is covered in dirt, grime, and dust. This could have easily formed with winds hitting the dirts. As you can see in the progression of the pictures, these are obviously shadows from the sun, or dirt formations. If this was a life-form, these divets in the body would not be fading away, they would stay fossilized and stay put. In 1998, it does not even look like a face, nonetheless in 2001, either. Next, as you can tell in the lower image featured in the paragraph, you can see another structure just a couple of feet to the left of the "face", and nobody seems to care about that. It does kind of look like an animal, so are we just going to question every single little pebble that we find on a planet? Didn't think so. In conclusion, this 1976 photo taken on Mars by the Viking 1 spacecraft is most definently a landform of some kind. There is no possible way that a creature could sustain life on a planet like this. This discovery is obviously just a hoax or a coincidental find. If scientists had found this structure a couple of years later, it would not have looked like this face, so they would have never even questioned it.

Not A Face The Face on Mars is just a natural landform, although some people believe that the Face is bona fide edvidence of life on mars I can insure you its not. I can give three good reasons why I am insisting that this sculpture is just a rock. First of all we had a better camera when we went back to investigate. Second of all we double cheaked our reasch. And third of all both results proved that it indeed was just a landform, much like Americas. In 1998 we send a special team called the MOC to investigate the Face. The MOC team snapped a picture ten times sharper than the original photos back in 1976. These photos came back stating that it was a natural land form. But not everyone was satisfied. At that time the MOC had took the photo it was winter in April '98 on the planet- a cloudy time of the year on mars. The camera might have been fogged. Two prove ower statement in 2001 we sent the MOC to take a second photo of the Face this time during the planets summer and with an even better camera. This newer camera had higher definition than the other two. When results came back they, again, stated a natural land mark. As you can see not only did we cheak once but twice both supporting NASA'S claim that "the Face of Mars" was just a rock after all.

The face on Mars was not created by aliens. You may think this because it was on Mars, and some may think this was a sign of life on the planet. But, this is not true. It was not created by aliens, but by shadows. It was formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes, nose, and mouth. As I said, this was just an illusion. This happend 25 years ago, and people are still fussing about how this was created by aliens. This is impossible because there is no life on Mars. This "face" is just a natural landform. Many years ago scientists thought it was a sign of life too, but this was short lived. Soon after they thought this, they figured it was just another Martian mesa, common enough around Cydonia, where the spacecraft was circling when they found the face. This Martain mesa was just like the others, except it had unusual shadows that made it look like an Egyptian Pharaoh. Soon after the scientists saw this unusual Martian mesa, they released it to the press so everyone could see. The "Face on Mars" has since become a pop icon. It has starred in movies, magazines, radio talk shows, and as the passage says "Haunted grocery store checkout lines for 25 years". This is a perfect example of why you shouldn't trust what you see on movies, online, or read in magazines. In the passage it says,"Some people think the Face is bona fide evidence of life on Mars, evidence that NASA would rather hid, say conspiracy theorists. Meanwhile, defenders of the NASA budget wish there was an acient civilization on Mars." If you pay attention to the last sentence, it says,"Meanwhile, defenders of the NASA budget wish there was an acient civilization on Mars", the key word in this is "wish". This is just more proof that this was just a natural landform. In conclusion, the Face on Mars was not created by aliens. It was just another Martian mesa that had unusual shadows that looked like a face. This story and picture was released to the press, and people belived that it was created by aliens, and that it was a sign of life on Mars, but that is not true. This is why you should not believe movies, radio talk shows, and what you read in magazines. This shows that the "Face on Mars" was not created by aliens as a sign of life, but a shadow.

In 1976, the Viking 1 spacecraft was orbiting the planet of Mars, and it was taking new pictures for all of mankind to see. As it was passing over a strip of Mars called Cydonia, it snapped a picture that would cause an uproar in space exploration. This new picture showed what seemed to be a human face. A few days later NASA reveled these pictures for the world to see; it was an instant hit. Conspiracy theorist were fast to make speculations that this was ancient alien architecture or something of the sort. But NASA said that the face was just a geograghical coincidence, and there is no alien stucture on Mars. One reason that consiracy theorist could beleive that this could be an alien stucture is that the resolution of the first picture was very low. In paragraph 10 it says," ...43 meters per pixel in the best 1976 Viking photo." This shows that the photo didn't give very compelling evidence that there was life on Mars. soon later NASA and their supporters claimed that this face is just an act of nature is because of the 1998 Global Surveyor spacecraft. This new spaceship passed over the red planet to take pictures of the "face on Mars". The pictures were ten times better than the last pictures of Cydonia this time. The new photos clearly showed a landform on Mars and not a man. But even after these new pictures conspiracy theorist were still bent on the idea that NASA was trying to cover something up. In spite of the new pictures people said that the day the photo was taken, it was cloudy. Therefor the photos couldn't be very accurate. In fact, these theorists were right. The day the photo was taken was in winter. It says in paragraph 8 that, " ... it was winter in April '98- a cloudy time of year on the Red Planet." These facts show that the landmass could indead be hidden by clouds. However, NASA still supported their claim that it was just a misinterpreted natural landform. While NASA never spoke negatively about the theory, they set out again to prove it wrong. on April 8, 2001, the Mars Global Surveyor came over the face on Mars, and it took photos with a resolution of 1.56 meters per pixel; the highest ever yet. What these pictures showed was what would be a butte or a mesa on Earth. These landforms are very common in Cydonia, so the pictures were very realistic. With very high resolutioned photos, it is hard for conspiracy theorists to still say that there is face on Mars. It even says in paragraph 11," So if there were objects in this picture like airplanes on the ground or Egyptian-style pyramids or even small shacks, you could see what they were!" In conclusion, the face on mars is supported and not supported. NASA has proven with photographic evidence that it is just a natural occurance while conspiracy theorists say that it is a martian civilization. I think that NASA's facts are very believable, and they have the science to back up their claim. I hope that in the future, more people will base their beleifs off of science and not fictional conspiracy theories.

The picture of what you call "a face" is a rock. It just looks like a face from a birds eye view. The rock just happends to look like a face but if you where there you would just see a rock with some holes. In the text it states " it's a huge rock which resembles a human head formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes , nose , and mouth." In the text it said ILLUSION you know the same thing the do in magic tricks. They make you think something is happing but its really not. Just like this "face". The shadows make it look like a face with some eyes a mouth and nose. But as you can see that is clearly not hte case. The text also states that " as a rule of thumb, you can discern things in digital image 3 times bigger than the pixel size." Which mean that if there where any thing that showed any living organisum living there we would see it. Since we have not found any proof of living thing on mars yet i would say its safe to say there are no living thing on mars.

One day when they were sang how to land they spotted a face on the red planet Mars. It all started like this there were viking 1 was looking for a clear space so his sister viking 2 could land in the planet Mars. So they were looking with the ship Camaro to see for a clear spot when they spotted something looking straight at the camera, and they took a picture because they didn't knew what it was. So when they got back home they took a copy of it, so the scientist could see what it was. Then when they were looking at it the said it was a face and then everyone started asking question. Also, it wasn't the body it was just a human head with"form shadows given illiquid in eye its nose and mouth". So when they saw it had all the stuff they when back to see it again the the mission was over for the viking 1 and viking 2.Also, this time there camera system was way better then IMN 1988, so they took some more photographs. Then when they came back they kept on student it even more, and it took them along time to fiber it out until when day the finally knew what it was. So they settled a mining for everyone come back in one place and when everyone was ready the scientist said that it was just the dust that had made a pile of mountain making it look like it was a human face, so they said it was just a natural landform. So when that hap end every one was bummed because they thought that they had actually found live in a other planet called the red planet. So everyone was hippie because they actually thought they found live in Mars but the dint. After that they just left the mission stuff were they were because they were sad because there was no live they just left every thing where it was. So what the picture actually showed was the martin equivalent of a butt or mesa land forms common around the American. After all that hap end the whole story was about the face and Mars and if there was live.

When NASA discovered this "face", at first they didn't know what to say. So they just passed it as another "Martian Mesa". "Scientist figured it was just another Martian Mesa, common enough around Colonia, only this one had unusual shadows that made it look like an Egyptian Pharaoh. Eighteen years later after the Viking space trip, they decided to take more photos of it. The technology improved, so it was giving them a clearer image. They got the pictures, and soon put them out for the public to see. "The authors reasoned it would be a good way to engage the public and attract attention to Mars". Thousands of people that were waiting for this image soon saw it was just a landform, "JPL website, revealing...a natural landform, There was no alien monument after all". Then later they figured out that the picture was actually a butte or mesa. "What the picture actually shows is the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa, landforms common around the American West". Gavin says, "It reminds me most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho, that's a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as the Face on Mars".

This face is not a creation of aliens. It is a natural landform. You can tell this is a natural landform because in the story it says that the caption noted a "huge rock formation . . . which resembles a human head . . . formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes, nose, and mouth." That is saying that it only looks like a face because of the shadows. It says that "as a rule of thumb, you can discern things in a digital image 3 times bigger than the pixel size." So that means that if there were objects in this picture like airplanes on the ground or Egyptian-style pyramids or even small shacks, you could see what they were!" This is saying that if it was a creation of aliens you would be able to tell. In conclusion the Face is not a creation of aliens it is a natural landform. There was no evidence showing that an alien of some kind created this Face. It was clearly the shadows making it look like a Face.

It's a Saturday morning and the head of NASA has called in to have a meeting on discussing "The Face on Mars." When I entered the meeting room there was only seven people inside. I was hoping there would be more people than just seven, but the seven that are inside the room are very important in the NASA headquarters. I took my seat and waited for Dr. Turner( head of NASA) to speak first. How many people think this face on mars can be an alien?"asked Dr. Turner". Every person in the room have raised there hands,but I didn't. I stood up and said to everyone, "I think this face could've been formed by natural causes". Everyone was looking at me mysteriously and I still continued speaking. How many times have we seen any form of life on mars? NONE "I said." What possibly can make you guys think this is an alien for sure? We have national places where nature has formed a rock or some sort to look like a face and we don't questoin that because we know it was naturally formed by sand storms for example. If this face would've been an alien i would like to an explanation from all you guys since you think it's anlien. Dr. Turner was looking at me in shock, but at the same time was very impressed ion what I said. Dr. Thomas rose from his chair and started speaking so I sat down and listened. We may not evrything there is in the universe because its so big. we probably only know 1/1000000, but we might know for sure we are not alone in this universe. The face on mars in maybe just a clue to tell us that we are not alone. We can never know what is out there until we have the right engineering to make better ships. No one from NASA has Actually step foot on mars because we don't have the right equipment. For now we have no clue what mught be on Mars, so what i'm saying is that the face on mars is just another mystery to be solved. "Said Dr. Thomas." Dr. Turner stood up and said he isn't sure what this face is made out of, but his choice was by predicting from natural causes. Everyone else in the room also stood up and agreed with Dr. Turner except Dr. Thomas. The meeting is dismissed. "said Dr. Turner.

The face here at NASA is not created by aliens. Here at NASA Mars Global Survey spacecraft we have revealed that the Face on Mars for what it reallys is: A mesa. Just like said in praragraph 7 " On april 5, 1998 when Mars Global Surveyor flew over Cydonia for the first time, Michael Malin and his Mars Orbiter Camera team snapped a picture ten times sharper then the original Viking photos". Here at NASA we have sent a lot of our people out to take pictures to prove others wrong that this Face wasn't created by aliens. "Thousands of anxious web surfers were waiting when the imagee appeared on a JPL web site, revealing . . . a natural landform". After all there was no alien monument! People then told us that the camera had to peer through wispy clouds to see the Face. We had already proved to everyone that aliens hadn't created the Face. At NASA we had proven that the picture actually shows the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa which is landforms common around the American West. After all there wasn't any aliens who created the picture and we proved that it was just a natural landform and that there was no alien monument after all!

Imagine going to outer space, and you land on Mars. When you get there you find a landform that you haven't seen before. This could be something big, but you know it isn't alive, so you have to assume it is a landform. When you go back and show everyone what you found people think it is an alien, but further investigations show it is a natural landform. This Face is a natural landform because no one has ever seen something like this before, no one has any proof that it is a human or alien, and NASA and the Mars Global Surveyor say it is a landform. First, no one has seen anything like this before. The text states," There must have been a degree of surprise among mission controllers back at the Jet Propulsion Lab when the face appeared on their monitors." This piece of evidence shows that the face is new to them, and they don't know what it is. Another piece of evidence is," Twenty five years ago something funny happened around Mars." This, also, shows that NASA doesn't know what it is. If no one knows what it is then you can't say it is a human or alien without knowing the facts. Secondly, no one has any proof that it could be an alien or a human. For instance, the text states," Scientists figured it was just another Martian mesa." This piece of evidence shows that they can't figure out exactly what the face is. They are making assumptions of what the face might be, but they aren't one-hundred percent sure of what it is. NASA would have to have proof to say it is an alien or not. Lastly, when Mars Global Surveyor arrived at the Red Planet he found out the face was a natural landform. For example, the text states," Thousands of anxious web surfers were waiting when the image first appeared on a JPL website, revealing... a natural landform." This shows that once they got a clear picture of the face, the JPL found out it was just an ordinary landform. The text also states," What the picture actually shows is the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa-landforms common around the American West." This piece of evidence found in the text shows that NASA figured out that the face was a landform. Yes, the face did look like a human, but the NASA found out it was a landform when they closely examined it. In conclusion, the face that was thought to be an alien or a human was clearly a natural landform. First, it was never seen before, so no one could be sure of what it was. Secondly, people just assumed it was an alien or a human, and they had no proof that it was. Lastly, the Mars Global Surveyor found out the face was a natural landform. This evidence shows that face everyone thought was an alien was actually a natural landform.

Okay so you're saying that aliens created this face on Mars? Well let me tell you why you are wrong. First of all, there are no such things as aliens, and if there were aliens they would have already done something to Earth and humans. This Face of Mars was made natural. As we already know Mother Nature can do things like this. In fact, we see natural landforms everywhere. The passage states,"Global Survey space craft reveal the Face on Mars for what it really is: A mesa." Juat becuase you find something interesting on a different planet doesn't mean it was made by aliens. The Man on the Moon for example it wasn't made by aliens, and nobody says it was, so then why should The Face on Mars be any different? In one of the pitures in the passage it shows the "famous Face" and then you can see a hill next to the face. It doesn't look like anything but a small hump, but its pretty much the same thing as the face, it's made of the same thing, but it doesn't have a face. Now this why you should know that alliens did not creat the Face on Mars.

The Face on Mars "The Face on Mars" is a "huge rock formation...which resembles a human head," as NASA stated in 1976. Many know that it is just a natural landform like on earth, but some believe that the Face was created by aliens. The Face is nothing more than a natural landform because we have landforms like it here on earth, photographic evidence reveals a natural landform, and there is no evidence that the Face was built by life outside of earth. The Face on Mars is nothing more than a natural landform, just like we have on earth. Jim Garvin, who is the chief scientist of NASA's Mars Exploration Program, knows that the Face is just another landform. "It reminds me most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho," he said, "That's a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as the Face on Mars." This is just one piece of evidence that the Face cannot be anything more than a natural landform--because it has many characteristics of a landform here on earth. A second reason that the Face on Mars is nothing more than a natural landform is because of the images taken in 2001 by Mars Global Surveyor (MGS). Twenty five years after its first photographs, clearer, higher resolution photos of Face came from MGS. From the 43 meters per pixel in the 1976 photograph versus the 1.56 meters per pixel in the 2001 photograph, there is clearly enough evidence that the Face on Mars is just a natural land formation similar to a mesa. The rises and dips in the landform just resemble the shape of eyes, nose, and mouth of a human face and nothing more, but after seen more clearly, cracks and crevaces in the land prove that the Face is just a natural landform. Those who believe that the Face on Mars was built by aliens have nothing to base their beliefs on other than the fact that the landform resembles a face. No evidence whatsoever suggests that the Face was built by supernatural life. On the other hand, photos--and common sense itself--prove that the landform is just another landform like we have on earth. The passage itself proves the authenticity of the landform. It says that "thousands of anxious web surfers were waiting when the image first appeared on a JPL web site, revealing...a natural landform. There was no alien monument at all," proving that the Face is only a landform. To conclude, no evidence suggests that the Face on Mars is anything more than a natural landform. The Face has characteristics of a landform on earth, and images of it from 2001 reveal only a landform. On top of that, those who believe that alien activity is responsible for the creation of the Face have little to no information to base their beliefs on. In the end, though, we know that the little landform called the Face of Mars is just one of our universe's great mysteries.

Since the finding of the face on Mars in 1976 many people have been saying that it must have been made from aliens on Mars. However this is not true. If there was life on Mars NASA would have found it by now because it would benefit them. "Some people think the Face is bona fide evidence of life on Mars-- evidence that NASA would rather hide, say conspiracy theorists. Meanwhile, defenders of the NASA budget wish there was an ancient civilization on Mars." (Pg 5) So therefor the Face on Mars is just a natural landform because of the amount of pictures taken of Mars and the face, the amount of time taken to research the Face and all of the NASA people saying it resembles natural landforms that are on Earth. First off we know that the Face on Mars is just a natural landform because of all the pictures that were taken. If there was any alien life of any kind on Mars, NASA would have caught it. In the article it says, "'Malin's team captured an extraordinary photo using the camera's absolute maximum resolution.' Each pixel in the 2001image spans 1.56 meters, compared to 43 meters per pixel in the best 1976 Viking photo." (Pg 10) The author of the article went into even more detail and said, "So, if there were objects in this picture like airplans on the ground or Egytian- style pyramids or even small shacks, you could see what they were!'"(pg 11) This explains how good the camera quality is and how they wouldn't be able to miss anything. Including the amount of picture evidence against life on Mars and the fact that the Face was not made by extraterrestrials, the amount of time spent researching the face by NASA clearly shows they know what they're talking about. The first picture of the face was taken in 1976 and then it was a major hit and they took another picture 12 years later in 1998. Then again after that in 2001. Also in the article it says, "And so on April 5, 1998, when Mars Global Surveyor flew over Cydonia for the first time, Michael Malin and his Mars Orbiter Camer (MOC) team snapped a picture ten times sharper than the original Viking photos" (pg 7) This quote from the article shows to what extent NASA researchers went to to find out more about the Face. As if there is not already a bunch of reasons why the face on Mars is just a landform, a group of people are agreeing with NASA's decision that the face is just a natural landform. According to the article it says, "Scientists figured it was just another Martian mesa, common enough around Cydonia, only this one had unusual shadows that made it look like an Egyptian Pharaoh." (Pg 2) Also stated in the article, "What the picture actually shows is the Martian equivelant of a butte or mesa-- landforms common around the American West. 'It reminds me most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of idaho,' says Garvin." Those quotes in the article are proof that those same types of landforms happened here on Earth as well and the ones here were not made by aliens. In conclusion the Face on Mars is just a natural landform. If there was aliens on Mars making landforms then NASA would definetely use that for publicity and to make the taxpayers happy. However there are no aliens on Mars making landforms and NASA knows this because of the time they have taken to research this along with the amount of pictures taken with high quality cameras and the resemblance of the landform to landforms on Earth.

This article is mostly about NASA and it's discovery of the face on Mars they believe that the face had a human form, but they figured out that it was just another Martian mesa. NASA thought it had unsual shadows to make it look like a Egyption Pharaoh, a few days later after the discovery Nasa unvieled the image for all to see. It starred in a Hollywood film, appeared in books, magazines, radio talk shows- even haunted grocery checkout lines for 25 years-some people think the Face is a bona fide evidence of life on Mars-evidence that NASA would rather hide. Although few scientists believed the face was an alien artifact, and so on April 5, 1998, when MGS flew over Cydonia for the first time, Michael Malin and his MOC team snapped a picture of the face. Thousands of anxious web surfers were waiting when the image first appeared on a JPL we site, revealing ...a natural lndform. There was no alien monument after all. Mission controllers prepared to look again. Nevertheless, on April 8, 2001, MGS drew close enough for a second look and got a much better photo of the Viking photo. What the picture shows is the Martian equivalent of butte or mesa-landforms common around the American West. There are mant reasons why the face could have been made by aliens or if it was made by something else most likely it was aliens in my poinion, but we need proof to be able to determine if it was or not. The article is just saying that there could be alien life out there, because there is so much that is undiscovered an things we do not know about, so it is possible that it was aliens or if it was something else think about it what do you think about all this?

The face on Mars was probably formed natural just like many Earth monuments. The eyes, mouth,and nose of the face was probably an illusion created by the shadows of the bumps. The face on Mars soon became an icon. It starred in movies, books,radios, and even radio talk shows. Some say that the face haunted group check out lines for 25 years. Some people say that the face on Mars is evidence for life on Mars i don't think, so I think it's just a natural formation of rocks. Only a bit of the scientists believed that the "face on Mars" was an Alan artifact. After eighteen long years after the vikings' mission had ended they stated to not believe that Alan life exists. To conclude this essay I would say that there are many different ways people could guess on how the face of Mars truly got there I would say that it was all natural and even scientists believe that it was a natural formation.

I'm telling you it's not!!! The Face is only a mesa. They have pictures as proof .The Face is just a landformation an alien race did not make it. The Face is a plain old mesa. The reason it looks like a face is because of unusal shadows. Then NASA used a high resoultion camera and saw it was just a landformation. Also Cydonia is an area with mesas. They have multiple pictures of the Face. They releasaed them to the public saying it was a landformation. If it wasn't they wouldn't have told the public. Also in the pictures you can see that it's not a face. Others say that the Face was made by aliens. They say that the photos weren't clear enough and that NASA is trying to hide the ancient alien civiliazation. However, they took much more clear photos . Also if there was an ancient alien civilization NASA would be happy and would tell the world because it would benefit them. The Face is just a mesa not created by aliens. They have photogenic proof. The Face is just a natural landformation. I'm telling you it was not made by aliens!!!

The Face was not created by aliens because there is no evidence on The Face to be able to test to see if it was created from an alien. We have searched The Face to find out to see if The Face was made by aliens, and the face was not crafted from aliens because we have not seen a single artifact, text, and/or any symbols near this landscape. Since we have not seen an artifact in the landscape we could tell that there were no aliens near this area. Since we have not seen an artifact, yes, they could have maybe known that they dropped it and culd have gone searching for it, but then what about the other aliens they could have dropped any crafting utensils at the sight. Now if there were any text in english then the text could have been from a fellow american space travelar, now if it was made by an alien the text wouldn't be in english, but there is no text in the sight because we haven't seen any so therefore it was not made from an alien, now if it were to be made from an alien they would have text or symbols on The Face because they wouldn't just leave it like that and then walk away. They would have put text or symbols. Talking about symbols there are zero amount of symbols on that artifact because like I said earlier they would have put text or symbols on the artifact, but there are none of those things. This shows how there was no chance of The Face showing that there were aliens building it.

I believe that the face is just a natural landform. I know this because people discovered or proven if or if not there is life on Mars. People always talk about martians, but never really find them. Mars has peculiar weather conditions. They have dust storms. They dust gets whipped by wind. Mars also gets hit by meoters and rarely, astroids. An astroid hit Mars hard enough that a piece of it flew to the Earth. When Mars gets hit, it forms craters on the surface and can go deep into the ground. The wind could have possibly pushed dust into a crater and formed the face. Also, NASA sends different space crafts and structure to take a look at Mars. Usually the crafts land on 3 or more legs. The craft could have possibly marked a dust mound. Wind three or more legs, you could form the face on Mars' surface. What NASA needs to do is send more crafts and robots. I think they should do that to get mor eevidence then just taking some pictures. THe robots can do things that a human would. The robot can feel the face and dig to see what is under it. Yes, it would ruin the face but we would get evidence and details if we try. In conclusion, I believe that the Face is just a natural landform. We to strive to find evidence on why it is there and why it formed. Maybe there is Life on Mars. The world may never know.

Is it possible that the face on Mars could have been created by aliens? Some people believe that the Face on Mars was formed by aliens; however, I do not believe that is possible. A few of the pictures taken of the Face on Mars were taken when it was cloudy,but that is the only information that suggests that aliens could have made the face. Many scientists have done extensive research on the Face on Mars, and they have found that it is nothing more than a natural landform in the shape of a face. If you believe aliens formed the face on Mars, then be prepared for multiple facts that go against that belief. Numerous scientists have studied the area in which the surreal face formation is located, and they have found various mesas. Martian mesas are common around Cydonia, the place in which you would find the face. Because of these facts, it is believed that the Face on Mars is just another Martian mesa that is coincidently shaped like a face. NASA even captioned one of the pictures saying "Huge rock formation that was formed by shadows, giving the illusion of a face." This explanation makes a tremendous amount of sense more than aliens creating the face. Although quite a few people vehemetley express their opinions that the face is evidence of life on Mars, NASA says that they are not hiding any information about alien life. Why would NASA keep life on Mars a secret? If life was found on Mars, NASA would share the information because they would make a lot of money from it. They would make history if they had proof of life in Mars! Some defenders of NASA even wish that there was an ancient civilization on Mars. There is absolutely no way that NASA would turn down that amazing oppurtunity and keep the evidence to themselves. The picture taken by Michael Malin is another reason to believe that the face was not an alien creation. He took a picture that was ten times sharper than the original Viking photos by using his Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC). The picture taken on April 5, 1998, revealed that the Face on Mars is a natural landform. There was no reason to believe that the face was not natural, but some people still believed that aliensdid in fact make the formation. The tenacious scientists were still determined to find evidence to make everyone see the truth. April 8, 2001, was a cloudless day in Cydonia, and Mars Global Surveyor was able to get close enough to the face to capture a extraordinary photo. The picture was taken using the camera's maximum resolution. If there were objects in the picture near the face, you could have seen what the objects were. There was nothing unusual aroung the Face on Mars. The picture shows a Martion equivalent to landforms common around the American West. It reminds some people of the Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho, which is the same height as the Face on Mars. This evidence supports the idea that the giant, face-shaped formation is a natural landform, nothing more, nothing less. Aliens are not even proved to exist, let alone form a landform like this one.

The face is just a natural landform because, nobody lives on Mars its just an empty planet. They NASA says that the face on Mars had become a pop icon but I don't think that just because NASA has images that it's sure. You can't always believe people. Although few scientists believed the Face wan an alien artifact, Some People think the Face is bona fide evidence OG life on Mars. Evidence that NASA would rather hide, let's say conspiracy theorists. The caption noted that the rock formation resembles a human head, formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes, nose, and a mouth. This would be a good way to engage the public and attract attention to Mars. Many people thought that it been an alien monument, but on April 5, 1998, Mars Global Surveyor flew over Colonia for the first time. A Man named Micheal Main and his Mars Orbiter Camera team wanted to prove that there were no aliens. He and his team snapped a picture ten times sharper than the original Viking photos. People should have been satisfied with knowing that there wasn't an alien monument after all. Nevertheless, on April 8, 2001, the Mars Global Surveyor drew closer for a second look. They have to room the spacecraft 25 degrees to center the Face in the field of view to get the picture. Main's team captured an extraordinary photo using the cameras maximum resolution. In the 2001 image each pixel span 1.56 meters, compared to 43 meters per pixel in the 2976 Viking original. I think that the researchers shouldn't be having to look several times just to prove certain people wrong. If they don't believe then they need to go to Mars for themselves. It'd be great that they got the comparison, but they went through trouble to get there. It was not an easy target. In face, it's hard work.

Well first if I go back to paragraph 3 NASA states that they thought from sending the pictures to the public it is a good way to attract public attention to fund mars missions. "The face" became very popular when NASA first sent it to the public. Also, on paragraph 7 the author states that when the Mars Global Surveyor flew over Colonia, they found out that "the face" was just a regular natural landform. In the year of 2001 the Mars Global Surveyor was able to snap a picture of the landform, as said by Gavin "The picture actually showed the Martian equivalent of a battle or mesa-landforms common around the American West". I don't think the landform is an ancient artifact or any Asian artifact I just think it's a normal landform that happens to look like a human or Asian face. Even if NASA was lying to us the landform benefits NASA. When they first snapped the photograph and shared it with the public it received a lot of public attention. Many people funded the missions to snap more photographs of the landform to get a better look at it. It was basically was a waste of time and money because it ended up being just a regular landform and not an Asian artifact as the world believed it was at the time.

Many people that think the face of Mars was created by aliens, but it was really just a landform here is why?.scientist say its just like a land formation that happens on earth this land formation are more common around American west the article says "it reminds me mist of middle butte in the Snake River plain of Idaho" says Gavin. Then gar vine said "Mains team captured an extraordinary photousing the cameras absolute maximum resolution" each pixel in 2001 image spans 1.56 meters compared to 43 meters per pixel in the best 1976 viking photo on April 5,1998 (MOC) or Mars orbiter camera team snapped a picture ten times sharper only for the thousands of anxious web surfers to see a natural landform on Mars and not any aliens. But yet not everyone was satisfied on April '98 a cloudy time of year on the red planet the camera on board MGS had to peer through the wispy clouds to see the face perhaps skeptic say alien markings were hidden by the haze. Now many people don't talk about this topic a lot anymore because it has been proven that it was just a landform created by the plates moving on Mars although there are still many people who think that it's not a land formation and think that it was built by aliens in the article it says that the land formation resembles a human face because of the shape of the head and giving the illusion of eyes, nose and mouth of the land formation experts have proven that it is just a land formation and was not built by any extra living beings that have lived there a longtime ago after reason the picture it was a pop icon back then it starred in Hollywood films appeared in books magazines and even radio talk shows and hunted groceries store checkout lines for 25 years.

Many people are debating over wether the " Face on Mars" is a natural occurance or if it was allien made. Some people think that NASA is trying to hide there findings so NASA defended themsleves and said they wish there was an ancient civilization on Mars. Nobody will ever belive the same things but it has been shown that there was no allien activity on Mars Conspiracy theorist believe there was alliens involded in the makeing of the "Face on Mars". Sceintist have taken pictures to prove that it was a natural landform and their were no signs of alliens. Even when people said the camera had bad quality NASA took another picture with a more advanced camera. When NASA got their second picture back it showed the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa landforms that are commom around the American West. Even if there were alliens that created this why would NASA keep it a secret they stated they want there to be a civilization. This shows that NASA was not hiding anything and that there was no actual proof of allien life on Mars. Without proof of life then nobody can conclude that the " Face on Mars" was made by alliens. NASA has more evidence than a conspiracy scientist would. Wether or not the sceints had reason to back up their theory it would most likely be weak because NASA's evidence is based on research and not a working conspiracy.

The Face on Mars is just a natural landform. Many people think that the Face was created by aliens, but this is not correct. There is no proof that shows that the face was created by aliens, but there is much information to back up the fact that the Face is just a natural landform. In the passage, Garvin says, "'As a rule of thumb, you can discern things in a digital image 3 times bigger than the pixel size,' he added. 'So, if there were objects in the picture like airplanes on the gorund or Egyptian-style pyramids or even small shacks, you could see what they were!'" This shows that even when people from NASA zoomed in on the face to get a better look at it, they couldn't find any sign of alien life which means that there is a very low possibility that there are aliens that could've done this. Another reason that shows that aliens couldn't have done this is when the passage says, "Thousands of anxious web surfurs were waiting when the image first apperared on a JPL web site, revealing...a natural landform. There was no alien monument after all." If scientists at NASA have studied this face and taken many pictures but still can't find any type of alien life, then there isn't any. The last piece of evidence that shows that aliens didn't make the Face is when the text says, "What the picture actually shows is the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa-landforms common around the American West. 'It reminds me most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho,' says Gavin. 'That's a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as the Face on Mars.'" Many scientists would let the public know if they were any signs of aliens making the Face to keep us informed so the people wouldn't constantly be thinking and talking about it every day. There is much information to back up the fact that the Face is just a landform. The public started to make up theories that made other people talk about it constantly, but scientists from NASA proved them wrong by showing them pictures on the Internet that there are no traces of aliens on or around the Face.

This landform on Mars does look like an alien face but is just another regular landform. It doesn't prove any aliens are on Mars because it is another martian mesa with perfect shadow placement to fool the eye. NASA isn't trying to hide anything about aliens or extraterrestrial life because they want to find life on another planet like Mars. Even if there was an alien civilization, why isn't there any more of these or different formation and buildings on Mars. That is why it is just a regular landform on Mars. Well this mesa is fooling people because it does look like a face, but it is just another mesa The shadow are just placed coincidently. The landform is pretty big so it couldn't be built fast enough for it to go unnoticed. Plus NASA isn't hiding anything, why would they need to. That is one of the reasons why I think it is a coincident. Even though NASA seems like they want to cover it they really don't want to because it will be the biggest find ever in space age history. We send probes and rovers for research and to find life. We also send then to find the necessary elements for life to exist. If we do find life it will be the biggest news for a long time. So we really aren't trying to hide anything especially about life on Mars. So if there was life on Mars, and they did make it, why aren't there any other structures built. Like on earth Aztecs did die out but had way more monuments to their gods. They didn't spend all their time building a face Plus their buildings couldn't erode away, or the face wouldn't be there. So why did they only build one ? Those are the reasons I believe face on Mars is just coincidental. We really would want to find something on Mars. If we do find something on Mars the face could be evidence that there is life on Mars. We will probably find out soon. Maybe find alien life on another planet.

The "Face on Mars" is just a natural landform. There is no civilization on Mars. What made you think that there was a face on Mars was the shadows being cast on the landform. We have many of these landforms on Earth. NASA took the picture of the landform and wanted to attract attention to Mars. According to the story, NASA unveiled the image for all to see. The caption noted a "huge rock formation... which resembles a human head... formed by shadows giving the illusion of eyes, nose, and a mouth." The authors reasoned it would be a good way to engage the public and attract attention to Mars, and it did. (Paragraph 3 and 4) NASA wanted to show that there was no face on Mars. NASA took another shot of the face. They felt that it been important to taxpayers. On April 5, 1998, Michael Main and his MOC team snapped a picture ten times sharper than the original Viking photos. The image first appeared on a JPL website, revealing a natural landform not an alien monument. (Paragraph 6 and 7) Another fact is that we have many landforms like this in the United States. The story states that, on April 8, 2001, Mars Global Surveyor drew close enough for a second look. What the picture shows is the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa-landforms common around the American West. "It reminds me most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho," says Gavin," That's a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as the Face on Mars." (Paragraph 10 and 12) Many people took the Face on Mars too far. People made the "Face on Mars" in movies, appeared in books, magazines, radio talk shows, and it even haunted grocery store checkout lines for 25 years. Some people thought that NASA was hiding evidence that there is life on Mars. NASA would have wanted people to know if there was life on Mars, because NASA's budget has been cut. This is why the "Face on Mars" Is only just a landform with shadows on it that makes it look like a face. People have just taken the situation a little too far. There still could be a chance that there is a life form on Mars, but for know we know that the "Face on Mars" is just a landform.

Mars hasn't saayed the same over the years. Mars has changed a lot over the years. And Mars aka. the red peant will continue to changed until the end of time. While we were observing Mars on 1976 with Viking 1 we have seen a figure ehat looked like a human face and that directed 2 miles from end to end. At the Jet Propuloion Lab there had to be a great deal of surprise. People searted to immediateay think this was created by alieni. That was still to be figured out. Over the next 25 years scientists studied Mars ao determine if this wao created by aliens or it's juot a natural landform. Scientist have been using many spacecrafts to better understand the "face". The picture of Mars had become a pop icon. Its was in a Hoaeywood film, in magazines and books. Mission Controllers prepared to look again. "It's noa easy to target Colonia," says Gavin. "In fact, it's hard work." Thousands of anxious web ourfers were waiting when the image first appeared on A JPL website, revealing a natural landform. There was no alien monument after all.

The face on Mars is 100% just a natural formation of rocks and sand/dust. Pictures show this, everytime NASA does take a picture of it there are the same results. Plus if it was alien why would NASA publish the pictures. If this was proof of aliens it would put people into freak out mode. The first thing is that giant rock formations aren't uncommon in the cydonia section of Mars. In fact there are a whole bunch of different kinds of rocks just like the face, only that those are normal looking. They don't look like faces. The article even says that the picture actually shows the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa-landforms common around the American West. Even Garvin says ''It reminds me most of Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho,'' then he keeps going to say ''That's a lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as the Face on Mars.'' The second thing is close up images. Over the years NASA has been taking pictures of this formation. Each time they take a picture of face, the face starts to look more and more like a rock formation. NASA even publicly posted pictures on the web, and all diferent kinds of media to show what the formation looks like. So, NASA must of been pretty confident in what they were saying the picture was. Plus NASA is made of the top of the line professionlas. They aren't made up of people who dropped out of highschool. They are made up of people who have graduated from some of the most advanced and instutionalized colleges. My third thing is if it was alien, why would NASA publicly show the pictures. In the article, it makes NASA look like they were trying to get people to get away from the alien idea. By the sound of it, I would take a guess and say if it was alien, NASA would do everything in their power to keep the images from getting out into the public. Another thing is that at one point people were saying that the picture taken on April 5, 1998, was not liable because of the fact that 98 was a cloudy time of year on the Red Planet. So, NASA on April 8, 2001, took another photo in the year 2001 and 2001 was not a cloudy year for the Red Planet .The photo even further backed up the fact that the formation on Mars is just another giant rock, not some alien face or artifact. So in the end why would this be an alien face or aritfact. NASA has publicly proven that it is just a formation of rocks and dust/sand. Plus if NASA didn't wan't us to know about aliens or anything of the sort, why would they publicly anounce and show pictures of the Face of Mars. That is why the Face of Mars is not related to anything alien at all and is just another formation in the cydonia sector of Mars.

The face on Mars was spotted by a Viking 1 spacecraft. When the spacecraft was circling the planet and snap shooting photos of landing sites for Viking 2, it spotted the shadowy likeness of a human face. The face was first discovered in 1976. The last snapshot was taken in 2001. Some people believe the face was made by aliens in Mars and also that it could possibly be made by the patient Egypt. This face became a pop icon. The face has starred in Hollywood films, and it has appeared in books and magazines. Some people think the face is bona fide evidence of life on Mars. After all, the face is just a landform that the shadow had made it more like a face. There are no evidence where the face had other connections to be discovered. It was naturally formed by the land and the rock formation and also the shadows that made it look more like it.

Unmasking The Face A lot of people lately have been suspicous of my company NASA. While I don't agree with them, I do see their side. The general public has all reasons to be suspicious torwards the "Face of Mars!" Sounds like something from "The Twilight Zone." Well, Mars, though so barren, might has well be considered the earth's twin sister... or brother. The two planet's sufaces have shown some interesting simularities, like water remnants and climates. Not to mention volcanoes. This is where we find the reason behind the face of Mars! On our planet earth, we have land structures called "Mesas." These elevated lands are found in the "American West", where the surrounding deserts (used to be oceans in theory), are now filled with canyons, rock flats, salt flats, mesas, and other forms only found there. Mars might as well have a northwest region where one could find earthlike simularities. This may as well be the reason behind the face. Also, one should note that the shadows may be rocks making a shadow from the sunlight. Another logical explanation to look at France. Shaped like a boot, it is just a land form that naturally occured, looking like something we know. My company would also like to state that this really "isn't" a cover-up. In true fact, the discovery of other life or remnants of one such time would be positive to us, and to our projects. So, say what you want. Believe in what you think, but we at NASA belive this isn't alien. Just another simularity between Mars and Earth.

Do you really think that there are aliens on Mars just because there is a formation of a face landform on Mars? Many people believe that there is other lifeforms living in our solar system like the people who think there are aliens on Mars. These people think this way because there appears to be a landform on Mars that looks like a face, but these people are wrong. The face on Mars is nothing but a natural landform, and just because it is there, does not mean that there has to be aliens up there. The face looking landform on Mars is just a natural landform, and does not mean there are aliens living on Mars. According to the article, it states that," it was only another Martian mesa, common enough around Colonia". This proves that this is not the only time this has happened on Mars, and does not mean that there are aliens on Mars just because of a naturally occurring landform. Some people thought is an alien artifact and that means that aliens had to have lived there. The article states that," Although few scientists believed the Face was an alien artifact". So very few scientists believed this was true, which is not very many, and these are people who studied this for a while and only a few think that aliens are living on Mars because of this landform. Then a man named Jim Gavin took a photo of the landform when he had the chance and also revealed that the Face was just a natural landform. The last paragraph in the article states that the picture shows that these types of landforms are common. So research has told us that this face on Mars is not an alien artifact, but just a naturally occurring landform. There are many reports and research on this topic, but has all lead to the Face just being a landform. There are probably still people who believe in this theory, but they can't see what really is just a landform and not some made up nonsense about how something that looks like a face on a planet means that there had to be aliens living there. That simply does not make sense.

The face is a natural landform because aliens are not rule. Well aliens can be rule if someone makes then and sand them off somewhere but not the point. The ponit is " the face on mars." Yes it can be created by an alien if them were rule but there not so it maens one thing the face on mars is a natural landform. NASA can be making it up to like they can go up to mars and put the "face" were it is or something can move it. NASA can do something like that but I hlop they didn't. The face on mars could also be from someone going up tp mars and on one knowing but someone would have seen it go up. All I need to say is i think it is a natural man made landfrom or a natural landform. Bad new is no one will know wath happen or how it was made.
