Ootline

Descreeption
English: The “Face on Mars” was one of the most striking and remarkable images taken during the Viking missions to the red planet (the black specks represent data errors). Unmistakeably resembling a human face, the image caused many to hypothesize that it was the work of an extraterrestrial civilization. Later images revealed that it was a mundane feature rendered face-like by the angle of the Sun.
Deutsch: Ausschnitt aus der „Marsgesicht“-Aufnahme der NASA-Sonde Viking I vom 25. Juli 1976, die eine Formation der Cydonia-Region in der nördlichen Hemisphäre des Planeten Mars zeigt.
