Faces on Mars

WilliamGolding: Has anyone else checked out the mars face monuments? What does it all mean?

Geoff: It only appears like a face from the right angle.

It says more about the human ability to see faces in random shapes.
Which also explains people seeing Jesus, Mary, and the Kool Aid guy in toast, tacos, clouds, puddles, and any other random formation.

This is down to the fact that one of the most common structural layouts the human brain has to interpret is the human face. This over-active part of the brain is responsible for a hell of a lot.

duncan124: Which Mars monuments?

~people who see faces are lonely.
##painters see all sorts of things

Geoff: There is a formation of mountains which, when in shadow, looks a little like a relief of Elvis.Admittedly, a relief of Elvis carved by a drunken four year old.

WilliamGolding: Jesus also appeared in a potato cut in two. However I think that no matter how much you want to think otherwise, the monument does actually look like a face. Undeniable.

duncan124: Was the potato cooked?

LiptonCambell: >>>However I think that no matter how much you want to think otherwise, the monument does actually look like a face. Undeniable.

Oh really? Lets take a look;

The original pic? Taken July 25, 1976

The high def pic taken in 2006?

Clearly its an illusion

Still have doubts? People have made a 3D recreation of the mountain for people to look at from multiple angles and lighting's



en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cydonia_(region_of_Mars)

duncan124: oh that one.

I was side tracked by the Jesus in the potato and think what happened next and how it came about.

Did someone just slice a baker up and give it a squint to see it there were any weavels and say "Oh Jesus...".And did He have both hands in the air?

WilliamGolding: Lipton, I'm not sure where you're going with the links, as they're the pics that do look like faces. As for the 3d video, it's crap, pure and simple. As for the potato, it wasn't cooked, and although I can't remember exactly I think it was a side view of his face and 'traditional' hairstyle.

LiptonCambell: ....huh?

The first picture, from 1976, IS the face on mars. Google "Face on Mars" and you'll find that wikipedia link I gave you in the top 3.

If thats not what you're talking about, then what are you?

WilliamGolding: Yes, we are in agreeance about the first picture, and that is what I'm wondering about. I took your post as to mean that you don't think that it actually looks like a face, that's all.

LiptonCambell: No, my post is to point out that, given more clear images, we can clearly see that it is NOT a face. You said that it looks like it from multiple angles- the video showing dozens of angles clearly disagrees.

Wikipedia also has a link to a program so you yourself can change the angles and lighting, if you still doubt it, but the gist of the argument is that that is not a face....

One Bar: In the woods near my house there's a stumpy tree that looks just like a human c0ck. In fact human c0cks can be seen in clouds, landscapes - and all over. It's down to another common structural layout. There are websites showing galleries of such images of 'c0cks'.

duncan124: Maybe you are sick. Have you told your doctor about your "seeing things" ?

duncan124: It is interesting that while just looking at these space pictures we sense that they are completely desolate and our human eyes start to see things we feel we need to see.

There used to be potatos in packaging with what looked like the word "jesus" on them. It was due to seeing through the clear plastic and reading the words on two sides at once. The letters were about sorting and grade of potato.

That was in the USA and there was potatos from several producers but each had a slight religous "overtone" to their packaging. Perhaps the potatos reminded people of Christian things.
In Ireland there was for a while a problem with the potato sacks all having the word "filth" on them somewhere.

One Bar: No, I'm fully aware that 'seeing familiar things' in clouds etc is just psychological. I think it's the folk who actually (try to) believe that such things physically exist that need to see a doctor. Or get an elementary understanding of nature.

duncan124: @0 B 1, No, there is no common structural layout except they both can exist.

2, You ,ve got one of your own have n,t you?

3, I really think you should see a doctor.

One Bar: Ok, I'll see a doctor. But I'm not sure what about because you are speaking in Garbledegook. Will you come with me?

Geoff: meh, doctors can't translate gobbledegook.

WilliamGolding: For freak sakes Lipton, if the first photograph looks like a face 'like it does' then you'd have to say that's the angle. I've already put forth my opinion of the video, did you watch the whole thing? I never said it looks like a face from multiple angles as you can see by reading the thread but I'm sure you'll just keep on repeating yourself and what you've already wrote. But thank you for your contribution, I was glad to see the original pic and do find them helpful.

smoke4ever: its not just the face, there are also pyramids

LiptonCambell: again, a trick of lighting. The links already posted deals with that.

smoke4ever: everything is a trick, huh?

LiptonCambell: So a photo made 40 years ago is right, but a high-definition scan on the entire hemisphere, which you can use a program to view it at multiple angles and lighting, is wrong?

Riiiiiiight. You just keep believing your nonsense.

smoke4ever: What would it mean if they found man-made stuctures on Mars?

LiptonCambell: Lol obviously it'd mean a man has been on Mars.

Have you bothered to watch the video's and links I posted earlier? Or does seeing pictures in greater resolution ruin your buzz?
