Yes there are links, but what i've researched there's a long story...i'm in the middle of researching the 7 domed 'hubs' or 'cities' on venus....thats an interesting one.
Kind Regards

How about providing some references or links to information on these cities on venus, I am interested in this.
Thanks.

And those couldn't have formed naturally?!
Martian sand storms and other geological events could be behind these "pyramids".

I guess if you had wind blowing up massive mounds of material from four completely different directions, then they could've been formed naturally. But that would just raise a lot more questions, wouldn't it? There are no tectonic plates on Mars so far as I know, and there's nothing to suggest those pyramids are volcanoes.
Mars has very simple geological forces as compared to Earth. You would have wind left to explain those things, and that's about it. Try finding massive, pyramid-shaped mounds of material on Earth that were created from wind alone. I don't think it's a very plausible explanation at all.
Rather, it just looks like wind has eroded and muddied-up a pre-existing shape.

Mars has had a very active past as far as its geology. I don't think it's "simple" at all as you have said. Mars has dynamic forces such as cyclones, dust storms, and landslides just like here on Earth. For more information go to this website on the Geology of Mars.

I acknkowledge the need for scepticism when dealing with such potential ideals. I also recognize the need for such debunking, but the truth is that the anomolies we are talking about on the cydonia plataeu match up perfectly with the ancient structures built in Great Britain thosands of years ago. The odds of such discrepancies can not be simply ignored, although they may very well be coincidence.
Your point is a valid one. These enigmatic topographical occurances could be the result of natural forces, of that i must concede you are right in adressing this point.
Another interesting side note:
If you were to take a perfect pyramid and place it in a perfect sphere the base of the four corners of the pyramid would be at 19.5 degrees of the equator of the sphere.
The most active geological area on Earth: Hawai, 19.5 off the equator.
The most active geological area on Mars: Olympus Mons, 19.5 degrees off the equator.
The most active geological area on Jupiter: The giant red storm, 19.5 degrees off the equator.
The most active geological area on Venus: A massive volcano, 19.5 degrees off the equator.
The most active geological area on Neptune: A storm like that on Jupiter, 19.5 degrees off the equator.
Coincidence, possibly.

The cyclones and dust storms would fall under the same sort of category as wind, and I still don't see how those forces would be able to brush up a structure like that, but landslides could explain the slopes, given the mound was already there. Pretty freaky and coincidental landslides though, to occur not only on four perpendicular sides of one formation, but on three, in roughly the same directions, all within close radius of each other. There would likely have to be some common factor in their creations, short of pinning it all on coincidence.

Why is it that when something interesting is found on Mars, people automatically attribute it to aliens?
