July 25, 1976... While looking for a place for Viking Orbiter 2 to land on Mars, Viking Orbiter 1 photographed a region of buttes and mesas along the escarpment that separates heavily cratered highlands to the south from low lying, relatively crater-free, lowland plains to the north. Among the hills was one that, to the Viking investigators scrutinizing the images for likely landing sites, resembled a face.
Since the release of this photo, many have claimed that the face is artificially shaped. They insist that the Cydonia area is littered with other shapes that also appear to be artificial in nature. Those who insist that these images are not natural ignore the statements by NASA to the contrary. Even so, in an effort to prove that the face is not artificial, NASA did something unprecedented.
April 2001 NASA, using the Mars Global Surveyor, re-photographed the region releasing photographs, which NASA claims, details the area in superior definition. Although the efforts of NASA was to prove beyond a doubt that the Face was nothing more than a formation, the photographs only fuels the belief that the Face is artificially designed.
