(right image inverted) ANOTHER NASA IMAGE? THE SAME FACE? ANOTHER ENHANCED IMAGE from the first pass of Mars Global Surveyor on April 5th, 1998, posted on JPL's website later in the day. The features are much better seen (commentary: Art Bell website). (notice the platform-mesa is exquisitely symmetrical)

COMMENTARY: Jim Deardorff

"I would urge that attention be paid to the features that indicate the Martian "pedestal" is a construct, and not ignore them the way the newscasters have done." (complete text)

CYDONIA?   Artist's Vision

MARS-NEWGRANGE

"Our kind would not stay on Terra long for soon would come a weariness of form. Off again we would soar into the stars in tease of other worlds or to leap beyond substance into planes where flow rivers of light. But even with our many distant wingings Terra would call the return, and She became for unspoken eons our favorite island, our Homeworld." Kent Steadman, editor, FIRSTBORN

A Question of Shadows

The shadow is quite large and is some what away from the face. There is only part of it showing (which I find odd) but what is showing is the same as the one in the old pictures.	The shadow is the same size and right up against the face.	If you look you can see the shadows are the same. DOES THIS SUGGEST A NASA DUB?

A TRIBUTE TO PERCIVAL LOWELL Thus journalist Ferris Greenslet wrote: "This reporter has met many of the so-called great men of his time, but none with a more potent personal quality than Percival Lowell. He agrees with another witness that one felt it before, or almost before, he entered the room. It was as if one had been suddenly deposited in a powerful magnetic field."

FEEDBACK FIRESTORM PUBLIC ANGRY!

HOAGLAND: Two-thirds of the data missing?

A typical Noah Satellite weather strip for comparison. (Art Bell webstite).

"Art and Richard Hoagland have been discussing the pic from Monday and Richard has concluded that 2/3 of the data for the picture is GONE. Keith Rowland...(yeah I know) confirmed this with his own assessment of the pic using a Paint Shop Pro/PhotoShop type program to find the grey scale and came up with the same or nearly the same figures that Hoagland did. This means the pic is a BAD pic and NASA goofed or at the very least missed getting a better pic on the first pass. There are several more passes scheduled and I wonder if they will dare screw up the next ones."

"I am justifiably disgruntled over this Mars face picture thing. How can they [NASA] think they can get away with this?"

"They went and destroyed the face, reduced it to a flattened lot. That's why they suddenly did an "about face" (no pun intended) and gave the all clear to show it "without any comment."

"I hope by now you've all seen the so called image-its another example of covert ops and leading the dumb animals along the path of destruction and stupor . . ."

"Is it just me, or is that the face half way down the image? I suppose that is to make us believe it was a trick of shadow all along."

"WHY am i not surprised that the psiops boys have won out again? no 'paradigm' cultural shift-busting. It does remind one of the Doug and Dave crop circle hoax debacle . . ."

"Maybe it's just me, but when I look at the original image along side the newest image, I don't see much of a similarity."

"Everyone is strangely silent. Is this the face or some other feature?"

"Like I said about NASA, Never A Straight Answer, and JPL, Just Plain Lying!"

"I think that the face has been modified physically or that we are just being suckered by a fake image in some way."

"I believe that the "first" image or the dark one revealed the true "face" compared to the "second" cleaned-up version which is smeared or data loss."

"I think we should be on our guard over the undoubted flood of outrageous suggestions explaining why the images are apparently different."

"You can see around the edges the results of an explosion and it is flat as a pancake, the dirt around the edges shows the ripple effect of the soil."

"Let's just put the cards on the table, shall we? It isn't the first time that the government would doctor reports of any kind to appease to the masses or to initiate some sort of mass mind control in the form of handing out information."

"Is it possible the MGS was off target and got a picture of a sand mound? It is a programmed vehicle and mistakes could be made. To me, the images didn't compare ...they looked like two separate things."

"I hope my opinion isn't too shocking for you . . .but NASA has always gotten the money and NASA will always get the money by hook or by crook. As far as NASA's possible expansion goes though or using that money in any productive manner whatsoever, I doubt they care. You can bet their plans are modeled around what will bring them the most money, highest home re-sale values and job security. Look at it this way there are four main powers in this country, financial, media, energy and government. May I suggest very quietly . . . that NASA has a great deal of influence over them all and that's nothing new."

"That is NOT the landmark that I recall, and I am a trained observer. Where are the eye sockets, for example? This is a dog's breakfast compared to what we originally saw. NASA have either interfered with the image, or interfered with the location. I really think they ought to be ashamed of themselves, it is so disgraceful to resort to these tactics when such important issues are at stake. If I was an expert in image manipulation I would examine this footage very closely and compare it to original viewpoints so that we can determine what has been altered, or removed."

"The CCD pictures available over the past few weeks bear no comparison with this, they are much higher quality. Is it conceivable that we are not being shown raw data but a second-generation copy subsequently modified?"

"Has anyone managed to align any of the craters in the new image with the original Viking data?"

"Why would they not want people to know that there are being-made artifacts on Mars? Is it because they feel that this might start the unraveling of the "UFO Cover up?"

"Well, I smell the STANK OF ANOTHER NASA SCAM...DAMN! The nerve of those bastards! In the wise and articulately eloquent wording of art bell, "CRAP IS CRAP."

"Someone did distort the image. Look how the this "closeup" is so un-detailed it's not even worthy of decent commentary. Who would think that a CCD image could be so fuzzy that any detail could be blurred so badly."

"I just wanted to say, I don't believe it.. They don't think we are ready to "handle the truth" and I am sure, some people aren't."

"Tonight 4/9/98, on the Art Bell show, Hoagland declared the new Mars photo is a hoax, a fraud, a totally doctored image. He gives the credit for discovering the alleged proof of this discovery to someone else who works with him. I didn't understand all the technical discussion but the simple version is that there is apparently an aspect of the imaging process from Malin's camera that can be thought of in the same respect as "finger prints". In other words, each image strip from the camera has a "finger print" which is unique to that image. By analysing the "finger print" of the image NASA has told us is original "raw data" is, according to Hoagland, a doctored copy of the original raw data."

Is there the possibility that another scenario is taking place within NASA?

Peter Murray, Journalist USN (Ret.) "Could it be that the faction that finally made the order stick to target and photograph the face (and other Cydonia features to yet be imaged), is in a battle with the head of the photographic team at JPL, Dr. Malin? Did   Dr. Goldin order Dr. Malin's team to take the photos and then Malin, forced to comply, got his way in presenting what we finally saw, by deliberately de-tuning the camera's resolution."

GLOBAL CONSPIRACY: NASA'S FAKE MEDIA PHOTO EXPOSED

WAS THE FACE RECENTLY NUKED OR EWAR PULSED?  Cyberspace ORBIT has been receiving much speculation on the idea that the face shows recent destruction.  Please submit any additional commentary toward this theory. Please indicate if you want your name released.

"What kind of crap is this? Looking at the most recent picture of the Face at Cydonia it is clear the damned thing has been blown to smithereens. You can see around the edges the results of an explosion and it is flat as a pancake, the dirt around the edges shows the ripple effect of the soil being turned to powder still in the basic shape of what once was the face. If a bomb had been dropped on it there would be nothing but a hole, so this was done from the surface, probably not long after it was discovered. It was blown up from explosives buried around the edges then the soil settled back down. I have seen this effect along the highway going by the test site in northern Nevada where they set off atomic bombs under the ground, the dirt jumps up and settles back down on a circle. They planted charges all around the face and lifted it up so it would fall in on itself. Well what else should we expected from these people."

Sincerely, C.B

"No kidding, if you look at the original pictures, the clearer ones as well, you can see the soil is quite still, not too blow around, with all the little craters in the area. www.enterprisemission.com has a few pictures, and I'm sure there are other sites as well. But you're right, it does look like something unsettled the area at the very least, which I'm willing to assume could be an explosion of some kind. Ain't no windstorm that could produce that effect. Not on that planet anyway, which does have dust storms too."

"If these features have been around for millions of years, why would they have weathered so rapidly in the last 20 years or so?"

"Tactical nuclear charges placed well above ground would not necessarily leave visible craters. Particle beam weapons could also have created the effects that appear in the image."

"Recently while I was at the Observatory on a night Infrared run on our new scope I took a couple test shots of Mars. To my utter amazament everytime the Cydonia site rotated into view it was glowing brightly in the infrared part of the spectrum. My theory to you people/ Cydonia`s FACE ON MARS monument was destroyed by a 1-7.5 megaton air burst."

"I said, how will we ever know the truth about the face now and he said, "We never will now...ask somebody if they can do a spectral analysis of chemical compounds off the film shown on the web. They'll find a high concentration of Cesium 157. I've seen it done, I've never done it. But radiation can be picked up on film. He also said, "if I'm not mistaken, that type of analysis discloses chemical compounds. Ceisum 157 is a man made industrial isotope. Not found in nature. Therefore, if it's present on Mars, it was put there by man, or some other advanced civilization."
