Rather smallish (303mb) image of the 'face' that launched a thousand websites. Super detail though..nice boulders. The Juventae Chasm image is rather dramatic - very nicely so. -------------------- Eric P / MizarKey

Ladies and gentlemen, a moment's silence on this sad day, please...
Finally, after all these years, she can rest in peace... Actually, that's not going to happen, is it? Mr H will no doubt find a way to talk around the new pic and spin it into actual proof that it is is a Face... and doesn't that "boulder" rolling oh-so-conveniently down the slope there look supiciously like a martian insectoid fleeing the imminent arrival of a dust storm..? And sorry to disagree with our High Commander, but that is NEVER going to be "just an ordinary little hill".  When there are people living on Mars they - and later tourists and sightseers - will flock there to see "The Face" for themselves, and have their photos taken by and on top of it. Give it a few decades and there'll be a "Face Museum" in its shadow, complete with a talking RH hologram describing the story of its "discovery", insisting to the last that it really is a statue; a rip off price gift shop where you can buy Face badges, magnets, bookmarks and erasers and the obligatory panoramic posters; a restaurant with a view of the Face and a full "Face Menu", the works...

Yup - time of death was 5 April 1998 12:39 AM PST
http://www.msss.com/mars_images/moc/4_6_98_face_release/ If I'm honest, I see more RH 'fodder' in the HiRISE image than I did in the MOC image, I think he's going to love it. |
