What do you think you do when you look at two photos and draw a conclusion?

I don't have the reliable photos I need.
The photos you are referencing are irrelevant.

One cannot even defend Sagan by saying that this frame was supplied to him already doctored by NASA, for Richard Hoagland had personally shown Sagan the original frame prior to the publication of the Parade article.18 Sagan was well aware that 70A13 confirmed 35A72 and had told Hoagland that he found this intriguing.19 So why did Sagan lie?

Additionally, the account of Sagan writing and talking about psychological aberrations that people see faces everywhere, and whipping out a deformed eggplant at lectures and claiming it looked like Richard Nixon, raises a red flag for me. This is not scientific, objective, behavior. It is using the technique of ridicule, which is a fallacy of reason.

If the only evidence you will consider is a photograph provided by NASA, then I would say you're limiting yourself considerably.

. . . So why did Sagan lie?
Whatever his motives, he appears later in life to have regretted his actions. In his last book, The Demon-Haunted World (1996) he actually praised the Cydonia researchers and said that the Face deserved a closer look.20 Was he here voicing a personal truth, now unrestricted by the laws of NASA?
“I hope that forthcoming American and Russian missions, especially orbiters with high-resolution television cameras, will make a special effort—among hundreds of other scientific questions—to look more closely at the Pyramids and what some call the Face and the City.” Demon, New York: Quoted in Hoagland, Monuments of Mars, 471.

In this video I am spinning and levitating a 180 gram Neosphere with a 1" diameter. The beautiful coil shown in the video was hand crafted by my friend and colleague David Klingelhoefer. Also working closely with me on this series of testing is Jack Scholze. For more information check out www.alexpetty.com....
Rodin Coil and Lolo Neoball Resonant Spinner (Part I | video) - Jack Scholze demonstates how the coil gets a metal ball spinning (up to 50,000 rpm) and keeps it spinning at a distance (around 7 feet), even nearly 1.5 minutes after being turned off, apparently via unusual magnetic resonances. "There may also be 'radiant' energy coming into the system via the recurrent collapses of the mag fields on each cycle." (YouTube / jacksholze; July 18, 2010)

Followup to last video, shows that the spin resonance works on the the Neoball some distance away from the coil with the power off. No perpetual motion here, but unusual magnetic resonances going on. The neoball spins for at least 1 minute and 20 seconds after the power is disconnected which is remarkable.
Tried other coils with lesser effects, so the Randy Powell Rodin geometry seem to work best. The coil here is a 4.5 inch diameter so-called 18x36 Abha or April Wind, with all 12 wires connected in 2 connected sets of 6 wires each.
About 50,000 RPM max on the 1/2 inch neodymium ball, N42 strenght [sic] from K&J magnetics.
Here is my grok on this. The initial energy input goes into the mag fields of both coil and neoball, then it starts shuttling back and forth. This resonance acts to keep the ball spinning for a long time, much longer than friction would allow. There may also be an additional jolt of "radiant" energy coming into the system via the recurrent collapses of the mag fields on each cycle like a Bedini motor/charger. voila! you have a whacked out of control "lolo" neoball spinner!
checkout vortexspace.org excellent info and files, rodin coil folks are migrating there.

Just hours later, Gerry Soffen, a spokesman for the Viking project, gave a briefing to the press about progress so far in NASA’s self-proclaimed search for life on Mars. Somehow an image of the newly discovered Face had reached him, and he showed it to the journalists. “Isn’t it peculiar what tricks of lighting and shadow can do,” he commented dismissively. “When we took a picture a few hours later it all went away. It was just a trick, just the way the light fell on it.”
Soon afterward JPL issued a press release making essentially the same points about the Face:
Photo Caption: 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 illusions of eyes, nose, and a mouth. The feature is 1.5 kilometers (1 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 1,873 kilometers (1,162 miles). Viking 2 will arrive in Mars orbit next Saturday [August 7] with a landing scheduled for early September.6
. . . In a way spokesman Gerry Soffen was perfectly correct to state that the image vanished within a few hours. This did not happen, however, because of tricks of light and shadow, but because night had fallen. No image of the Face was acquired a few hours later. Quite simply, the much-vaunted photograph that proves the Face is an illusion does not exist. So why, then, did NASA spread this strange story around?
“Isn’t it peculiar what tricks of lighting and shadow can do,” he commented dismissively. “When we took a picture a few hours later it all went away. . . "

Neoball Pulse motor using a bifilar flat spiral coil. The coil is a single layer that spirals outward from the center, with a layer of masking tape between each wind. See "jiffycoils" videos for a good description of how to wind one of these.
Mine uses qty 2, #22 gauge solid copper magnet wires. About 100 spiral turns and 2.0 ohms resistance for each wire. Connected both coils in series, and it goes crazy with a +12 volts from a small battery, It easily exceeds 11,000 RPM with a good torque at all speeds. I've included the schematic and tried to explain it a bit. These spiral flat coils are remarkable, and can be seen some of Nikola Tesla's old patents going back to 1900 or so. I wish a lot of folks make these motors and experiment with the coils. My appreciation goes out to jiffycoil, lidmotor, jonnydavro, rwg42985 and others for their fine videos and sharing their knowldege.

They are the movers and shakers of this world, working in the spirit of cooperation. They're the salt of the earth in my book.
When this world finishes imploding financially, they'll be among those who will help bring in the new.

Hard metal on glass will result in a very low friction coefficient. OK, so the magnet will spin for a while after you stopped supplying energy to it via a leaky toroidal coil. What is the big deal here?
1. I make no claims of over-unity or free energy. 2. The resonances observed show an extended spindown of the spinning neoball magnet beyond what you expect from simply resistance. The permanent mag field of the neoball interacts with the changing mag field of the coil to spin it up to high rpms. Then when the power is removed, the mag field energy appears to oscillate, and power the entire system for awhile. This field energy eventually dies away and the ball stops spinning. The good question is, does any other energy come into the system while this is occurring, like the Zeropoint energy, or the radiant energy, etc. Have to refer you to John Bedini's work for that, since I have no precise measuring devices. I can say that on some of the tests, there does seem to be extra energy, and it is not all the time. Sometimes, aligning the coil to the earth magfield, it just seems to go nuts and spin a long time. Tellurian currents? Radio waves? AC transmission lines? dont know. I admit that "going nuts" is not informative in any objective sense.
