src=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/graphics\/2001\/05\/pio_med-thumb.gif\" width=\"150\" height=\"126\" align=\"right\" \/><\/a>This just in &#8212; It seems that our nearest neighbor in the Solar System, and most possible target for future colonization, is in dire need of a facelift!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/\" title=\"National Aeronautics and Space Administration\">NASA<\/a> has recently released photographs of the famous <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mt.net\/~watcher\/mars.html\" title=\"Cydonia Martian Pyramids - Sphinx \/ Cherubim - the Stones of Fire\">Cydonian face on Mars<\/a> that show that one of the strongest pieces of evidence we have yet of alien intelligence is in danger of being eradicated from our Solar System. While NASA&#8217;s scientists have always been quick to deny that the face is actually a face (how foolish &#8212; what else could it be?), scientists worldwide <em>not<\/em> under the thumb of the U.S. Government have spend untold hours <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newfrontiersinscience.com\/ArchiveIndex\/v01n01\/evidence.shtml\" title=\"New Frontiers in Science: The Face on Mars: Evidence of Extraterrestrial Intelligence?\">debunking the &#8220;theory&#8221;<\/a> that NASA and the US Government want us to believe &#8212; that the Face does not exist, and is merely a product of poor photography combined with human imagination.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I don&#8217;t know about you, but it doesn&#8217;t take much imagination at all for me to see that the above picture quite clearly shows a face. And do they really expect that the American public is so stupid as to believe that after sending  countless satellites into space, the <a href=\"http:\/\/voyager.jpl.nasa.gov\/\" title=\"NASA: Voyager\">Voyager<\/a> probe to the stars, and who knows what else (I would list placing men on the Moon, but that has long since been <a href=\"http:\/\/moonhoax1.tripod.com\/MoonHoax\/\" title=\"Moon Landing Hoax\">uncovered as a hoax<\/a>), that the <a href=\"http:\/\/nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov\/planetary\/viking.html\" title=\"Viking Mission to Mars\">Viking 1 and 2 landers<\/a> had such poor equipment on board that they would mangle a random collection of peaks and valleys into looking like we know the Face to look?<\/p>\n<p>Lately, however, some more disturbing news has leaked out of NASA. As can be plainly seen in the images below, the Face is being destroyed!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/graphics\/2001\/05\/threefaces.gif\" title=\"Three faces\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Three faces\" src=\"https:\/\/michaelhans.com\/eclecticism\/graphics\/2001\/05\/threefaces-thumb.gif\" width=\"350\" height=\"106\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The only question now is how is this happening? The three pictures were taken within the space of less than 30 years &#8212; from the Viking missions in 1975 and 1976 to the most recent flyover by the Mars Global Surveyor in 2001 &#8212; and show a frightening amount of destruction. While we know that Mars has an atmosphere inhospitable to human life (or, at least, so we&#8217;ve been told all these years), it isn&#8217;t so horrid as to account for that much degradation in such a short span of time. So what could be responsible for this?<\/p>\n<p>The only answer I can come up with is that the Face is being <strong>deliberately destroyed<\/strong> to hide its existence from us! This single image &#8212; released by NASA itself &#8212; does more to prove that the Government has been hiding information from us (either about its own capabilities, or about its involvement with extraterrestrial intelligence) for years than anything previously found! I don&#8217;t know who is destroying the Face &#8212; or how (though it could either be through their own means, if you assume that <a href=\"http:\/\/liftoff.msfc.nasa.gov\/news\/2001\/news-moonlanding.asp\" title=\"NASA: The Moon Landing Hoax\">NASA&#8217;s claims about the moon landing<\/a> are true, and we can travel between the planets; or through the assistance of alien intelligences in collaboration with our government) &#8212; but the why can be easily guessed.<\/p>\n<p>To keep us ignorant.<\/p>\n<p>The face has been a thorn in the side of those in control ever since the pictures leaked out to the world after the Viking landers took them &#8212; incontrovertible proof of alien intelligence &#8212; and they must have been working since its discovery to destroy it so that they could &#8216;debunk&#8217; it as just another jumble of rocks.<\/p>\n<p>I feel that it is imperative that we <em>refuse<\/em> to let this continue. Contact your representatives, senators, whomever, but let it be known that we will no longer allow ourselves to be led, that we are not the pawns that our so-called &#8216;leaders&#8217; want us to be!<\/p>\n<p>Let the truth come out!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Okay, okay. So I&#8217;ve been watching too much <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B00003RQND\/djwudicom-20\" title=\"Amazon: The X-Files Complete First Season\">X-Files<\/a> recently. The picture of the three faces actually comes from a fascinating <a href=\"http:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/headlines\/y2001\/ast24may_1.htm?list74015\" title=\"NASA: Unmasking the Face on Mars\">article<\/a> on NASA&#8217;s website about the formation in question, and how the increased resolution of today&#8217;s cameras (and <em>not<\/em> erosion, alien conspiracies, or the like) are giving a clearer picture of the &#8216;face&#8217; on Mars. Neat stuff, but it triggered my brain, and I had to get this out.
