text: Now with higher resolution pictures NASA scientists have found what the "Face" really is. It seems that their earlier guesses were in fact correct! As quoted in "Unmasking the Face on Mars", "What the picture actually shows is the Martian equivalent of a butte or mesa". The scientists were correct on saying it looked like a mesa. They have even found out with higher resolution pictures that it almost resembles the Middle Butte in the Snake River Plain of Idaho. They both have a similar height and shape.
