Nothing has captivated the publics interest of Mars more so than the famous FACE ON MARS. A mysterious & stoic view from the surface of Mars, peering up & looking out into space for who ever was to happen to come pass by & look down, & see it's awesome 'HEAD' looking up at the passer by.

This scenario just described was in fact what was seen in 1976, when a pair of U.S. NASA Viking Orbiters that were sent to Mars to study it's surface for signs of life & to study the planets topography, for future robotic & possible manned missions to Mars. This is what was seen as one of the Viking Orbiters flew over a region called 'CYDONIA'!

The coordinates for this feature on Mars is located at 40 degrees North, by 9 desgrees West.

It is obvious that in 1976, attention was given unto this feature by those in NASA that it appears to look like a face. Even so much as to NASA themselves naming it.... 'HEAD'!

Without getting into the so called REAL History of the finding & publishing of this image by NASA, we will simply continue on along to see the images throughout the years of this 'HEAD'. I say this because the so called real history I believe in regards to how we came to see & know of this Face for instance, is needed to be called into question, especially regarding to the things we will see & look at in this web site.

But what I will say is that NASA has put in place a policy to debunk & play down the implications of this 'HEAD' feature in the region known as Cydonia! A policy which still stands in force to this very day in consideration of what this 'HEAD' really is &/or represents. Their policy is to consider it as merely a trick of Light & Shadow. A mere mesa, or a mere mountain, or butte of completely natural origins, not being a feature to consider as being designed by Intelligence, alien or human.

Even though as we all shall see that over the years as available imagery was acquired that still shows that this 'HEAD' is still looking to be appearing as a 'HEAD'! Despite the NASA official policy claim mind you.

This falls into the reasoning I have regards to the so called REAL history of this 'HEAD' finding by NASA, & what I believe to be a POLICY in force to which NASA will never admit to it's artificiality aspects to this 'HEAD'.

I believe that what the public was told is a cover story to the truth. The truth of what NASA really knows & what NASA really sees in their images, & raises questions also about what they also see & have of Mars image data that the public does not & is also not aware of. Implicating that not only is this a 'HEAD' showing a Face, but that this 'HEAD' is NOT only NOT alone, but it is NOT even lonely! Which leads us into the conspiracy areas to what we see, & not see, on Mars.

But we are jumping ahead. I just wanted to explain myself somewhat as to why I am not getting into explaining the so called REAL history of this 'HEAD' find on this page.

So as I said, we will instead look at the imagery of this 'HEAD' over the ensuing years since 1976 until today by various Mars Missions imagery, to show that this feature still appears to us as it did back then, as looking like a 'HEAD' with a Face!

It was not until the Mars Odyssey Mission after 2001, that we have gotten better views of the Face of Cydonia that is better than the resolution of Viking images showing the 'HEAD'.

Here are a few examples:

Also after 2001, we have yet another better resolution image than that of Mars Odyssey of The Face of Mars 'HEAD', from Mars Express, from ESA (European Space Agency). The detail is absolutely astounding & reveals more relief detail than Mars Odyssey.

Mars Express has also given us perspective views of the Face of Cydonia 'HEAD'! Incredible also is the color data given with them. These perspective views offer us details that we just cannot see in NASA's imagery for some reason or another.

But it was not until back in 1998 of April, when the Face of Cydonia was re-imaged. In fact it was that very day of that release that my Mars work started. Odd how all that began. Anyway, 22 years later since the 'HEAD' was imaged the Mars Global Surveyor looked down upon Mars in Cydonia, & provided us all with an image.

THIS IS WHAT WE SEEN.

There was also controversy & conspiracy allegations even over the release of this image. Again, we will not rehash this here. But what is interesting in this 1998 Face release, it appears to have been taken from an angle. This helps but at the same time not helped, as what was expected was a view of the 'HEAD' from an above point of view & not an angle.

Many were disappointed at this but I found it useful & shows things that the above view does not show, for some reason or other. But that is me in my research & study of the various images over the years of the 'HEAD'. Though many were not happy with this, & many were also not seeing a face at all. Yet I can still even at this angle, I can still see clearly a face!

It was not until May of 2001 when we were given another face image from Mars Global Surveyor, but this time, it was an above viewing angle to the 'HEAD'! Yet NOT the whole 'HEAD'! But a swath cut across it. At this time I was thinking someone NOT really wanted us to see this 'HEAD'! But look at all it offers us all to see in it's details. The EYE especially is very pronounced!

Later during that same year of 2001 of April, we finally were given a full 'HEAD' on view of the FACE of Cydonia! This was big news, & of course to NASA it was a big news HIT PIECE to debunk it being as a face. But I NOT listened to their policy hit piece opinions, as I can SEE for myself what this feature appears as, & I advise all else to do the same in judging what it is we are seeing,... a 'HEAD'!

The size is also enormous! One mile wide, by one & a half miles long, by 1500 feet high! This is a Mars Face Pyramid!!

The colors of the Cydonia Face 'HEAD' are NOT natural & are consistent to the sculpturing of the face's features, as seen in this Mars Global Surveyor view which was given for ESA's Mars Express Face Of Mars Bump On The 'HEAD' Hit Piece. Which can be seen below. That PEAK or 'BUMP' on the 'HEAD' is NOT supposed to be there! When compared to the perspective views of ESA. This 'BUMP' is NOT visible!
