Hi,

Someone was asking about NASA's official opinion on the Face on Mars.
Here it is:

http://solarsystem.nasa.gov/faq/index.cfm?Category=Mars#q9

    What is NASA's official opinion as to what the 'face' on Mars is?

    NASA has no official opinion on what the so-called "face" on Mars is.
    Most planetary scientists agree that the image is a combination of a
    natural feature and lighting conditions that formed to make ' a face.'
    More detailed images since the Viking missions show it to be a normal hill.

Since this is a bit off-topic from meteorites, I'd suggest further
discussions of this be taken offline.
