COSMIC MESSAGE

The 'Face on Mars' is a mesa, a natural rock formation that looks like a face from a specific angle. The Mars Express orbiter took a high-resolution image of the Cydonia region, showing the mesa's true, natural contours. It sits on the surface of Mars, waiting for future exploration.
