text: Lastly, when Mars Global Surveyor arrived at the Red Planet he found out the face was a natural landform. For example, the text states," Thousands of anxious web surfers were waiting when the image first appeared on a JPL web site, revealing... a natural landform." This shows that once they got a clear picture of the face, the JPL found out it was just an ordinary landform. The text also states," What the picture actually shows is the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa- landforms common around the American West." This piece of evidence found in the text shows that NASA figured out that the face was a landform. Yes, the face did look like a human, but the NASA found out it was a landform when they closely examined the it.
