One of the most persistent supporters of this delusion is Richard C. However, true believers know that the feature was actually built by aliens and that NASA has been trying to cover that up (NASA's mission to search for evidence of extraterrestrial life or civilizations is actually a lie orchestrated by Reptoids, the fact that they even released the photo in the first place was a 4D chess move designed to confuse us). Project scientist Harold Masursky joked about it that 'This is the guy that built all of Lowell’s canals.' NASA released the photo to the public and pointed out this cool trick of light, shadows, and low-resolution orbital photography. It was first discovered by the Viking 1 orbiter. The mensae are characterized by knobs and mesas (mensae is the plural of mensa, which means table). NASA and Google have both yet to respond to this new “discovery.The Face on Mars refers to a photo of a feature that looks like a human face on the surface of the planet Mars, specifically in the area of Cydonia Mensae, an area of Mars adjacent to the border between the Northern lowlands and the Western Arabia Terra. The finding is similar to that of the infamous face on Mars, which was uncovered by the Viking 1 probe in 1976, and swiftly dismissed by scientists at NASA as a mere trick of the light caused by a quirk of geography that threw shadows over a small hill on the Cydonia region of Mars, making the inanimate rock look like a carved face. I don’t know if NASA even knows about this.” I sort of doubt NASA has anything to do with this. “I don’t know if they could pull off such a project without all the people seeing all the material going up there. It could also belong to NASA, I don’t know that they would admit that.”Īlthough Martinez concedes that the base may have been an initially terrestrial project, he feels that it would have been difficult to pull of without fanfare: It could be a way station for weary space travelers. I couldn’t imagine why anybody would want to live on Mars. Whoever put it up there had a purpose I’m sure. “It could be a power station or it could be a biological containment or it could be a glorified garage – hope it’s not a weapon. Martinez also speculated on what else the structure might be: It’s very unusual in that it’s quite large, it’s over 700 feet long and 150 feet wide, it looks like it’s a cylinder or made up of cylinders.” I call it Bio-station Alpha, because I’m just assuming that something lives in it or has lived in it. ‘This is a video of something I discovered on Google Mars quite by accident. In a pre-recorded ‘fly by’ video of the object, Mr Martines describes what he thinks the station might be. Martinez even lists the co-ordinates 49’19.73″N 29 33’06.53″W so others can go see the anomaly for themselves. The Daily Mail has reported that an American “armchair astronaut” claims to have discovered a mysterious structure on the surface of the red planet by studying images on Google Mars.ĭavid Martinez - whose YouTube video of the alleged base, which he has dubbed “Bio-station Alpha,” has racked up over 200,000 hits so far - claims to have randomly uncovered the picture while scanning the surface of the planet one day.ĭescribing the ‘structure’ as a living quarters with red and blue stripes on it, to the untrained eye it looks nothing more than a white splodge on an otherwise unblemished red landscape.
