Well, the U.S. of A is not the only country with a Mars program. In ten years time they'd perhaps be half a dozen countries reaching for Mars. Now if that happens and a nice clear unadulterated non-airbrushed image of the face is taken, then that would blow the lid off the greatest kept secret - that ET civilizations are a reality.
It would be a double whammy for NASA. Get socked for hiding such info from the public for the past half a century, and get their butts kicked for using tax payers money to do it!
Cheers!

If they wanted to cover it up, why release pictures in the first place?
And why knock down one side to 'hide the truth' as that could only give fuel to the conspiracy theorists?...

Hi Telos! I've been trying to get my paws on The Dark Mission but have been unsuccessful so far. I wonder if it's available on eBay?
Cheers!

Probably an accident. They perhaps didn't realize it was a face until it was too late! Once the cat was out of the bag, it had to be a cover-up operation from then onwards.

This was unintentional. As I mentioned earlier, the aim was to destroy the whole 'structure'. But then getting a device to do this at the precise altitude and coordinates remotely from Earth more than 35 million miles away is a tough proposition!
And then destroying a feature that size isn't easy with the limited resources they could fit on board the craft.
Cheers!

Caption of JPL Viking Press Release P-17384
NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION
VIKING NEWS CENTER
PASADENA, CALIFORNIA
(213) 354-6000
Viking 1-61
P-17384 (35A72)
PHOTO CAPTION July 31, 1976
This picture is one of many taken in the northern latitudes of Mars by
the Viking 1 Orbiter in search of a landing site for Viking 2.
The picture shows eroded mesa-like landforms. The huge rock formation
in the center, which resembles a human head, is formed by shadows
giving the illusion of eyes, nose and mouth. The feature is 1.5
kilometers (one mile) across, with the sun angle at approximately
20 degrees. The speckled appearance of the image is due to bit errors,
emphasized by enlargement of the photo. The picture was taken on July
25 from a range of 1873 kilometers (1162 miles). Viking 2 will arrive
in Mars orbit next Saturday (August 7) with a landing scheduled for
early September.

This is one of the most ridiculous conspiracies i have yet to hear here on ATS. to destroy and collapse a MOUNTAIN
.....the distance between earth and mars....they would need a asteroid or small nuke, the huge scope of that operation is just dumb.
also...it appears that the land has SLID,,,NOT EVEN CLOSE to being a meteor,,,nuke or anything destructive...
yawn..waste of time.....

I know, except the difference is, thats not nature either, now is it? Even the Okanagan, whose geological formations are not quite as distinct. For example, McIntyre bluff, my favorite landmark I grew up with, looks like a profile that meets right at the profile, so two long bluffs in opposite directions. In Oliver it faces the opposite way as it does driving to Oliver. Then, a mountain that looks like a native woman, and a variety of things we've noted all our lives, that in no way look to me like they were carved by receding ice. These are slightly more subtle than those. Good markers though, for the allies to the those living underground, such as the Telosians and others, such as Sirians, and Pleiadians and such. Why I definitely link it to the Telosians is because of the Okanagan natives presence and their myths, for nothing here is by chance. When you see something like the picture you just showed you're looking at a marker for visitors.

Mars's mean surface pressure equals the pressure found 35 km above the Earth's surface. This is less than 1% of the surface pressure on Earth.
