text: The Face on Mars is extremely similar to several landforms found on the Earth. As explained in paragraph 12, the Face is similar in design to "a butte or mesa," which are "landforms common around the American West." Jim Garvin, chief scientist for NASA's Mars Exploration Program, notes that the Face reminds him of "'the Snake River Plain of Idaho.'" In the Snake River Plain, there is a "'lava dome that takes the form of an isolated mesa about the same height as the Face.'" This is evidence to support that the Face is no different from any other natural landform, and that people have no reason for speculation against that idea. Another big reason to believe this claim is because professional scientists have pictures for evidence against aliens.
