NASA explains strange images on Mars

Mars probes once captured images that shocked viewers because they carried the form of a woman, a piece of a femur or a human face.

Explain the science of mysterious images on the red planet

The photo was taken by the exploration ship Viking 1 of the US Aerospace Agency (NASA) in July 1976, which looked like a carved face on the surface of Mars.The face consists of two eyes, nose, mouth and strange hairstyle.After that, many speculations were made about the origin of the giant face.For example, this is the art work of a civilization that once existed on Mars. In 1998, NASA's spacecraft flew over this area with the aim of capturing a sharper image of "face".However, it was identified as a normal rock dune in the desert.Rock form looks like a human face due to the combination of its concave surface and the shade created by the projection angle of sunlight.

NASA's Mars Global Surveyor probe captures a sharper, higher resolution image of "Mars face" in 2001. This image shows that the face is essentially a rocky mountain with a peak. equals, not the sculptures of aliens.

The bizarre boulder image has a "human thigh bone" photographed by the self-explored Mars Curiosity vehicle to Earth in 2014. Scientists explain that the unusual shape of the rock is most likely a product. of erosion caused by wind and water.

The mysterious stone shaped like a jelly donut suddenly appeared in front of the Curiosity self-driving car at a point where it did not exist before.Proof is the picture on the left and right side.Some people believe that this is an alien mushroom.However, NASA scientists said the stone could be pushed forward by the Curiosity self-propelled wheels and recorded.

The image was taken by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter at the end of 2014. It is a 2-kilometer island with a strange waffle shape on Mars.The island can form due to lava flows erupting from the surface and freezing.

In 2012, NASA's Curiosity self-discovery vehicle detected a shiny object mixed into the dark soil on Mars.The whole picture is taken within 4 cm.NASA scientists claim that light-colored objects are simply part of Mars's geology.

The object protruding from the rock was recorded in the early 2013 by the Mars self-driving car Curiosity. It looked unnatural, probably like a piece of metal.Many people imagine this is a piece of wrought metal of aliens.NASA scientists predict, this is just a piece of meteorite or rock hard to be "carved" by the wind into an interesting shape.

In 2013, NASA's Curiosity self-propelled car sent a strange image showing a bright spot appearing on the Mars horizon.Images that make people who believe in UFOs feel very excited.They believe this is evidence of alien activity.Doug Ellison, NASA scientist, explained that light spots can form when cosmic rays contain high-energy particles that fly in the space impacting on the camera.

In 2012, the Curiosity autonomous vehicle detected shiny objects on the ground, not identical to its surroundings.NASA claims the object is just a small piece of plastic falling from the Curiosity self-propelled vehicle.

NASA's Mars probe named Spirit captured the image in 2007. It looks like a person walking. Many people believe that the rock has a female figure created by aliens.
Planetary Society explains that this is essentially an optical illusion, a great example of pareidolia (the human brain tends to assign familiar patterns to random shapes or sounds) .
