Face on Mars Gets a Make-Over

Alien54 writes "ESA's Mars Express has obtained images of the Cydonia region, site of the famous 'Face on Mars.' using the High Resolution Stereo Camera. After multiple attempts to image the Cydonia region from April 2004 until July 2006 were frustrated by altitude and atmospheric dust and haze, the High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board Mars Express finally obtained, on 22 July, a series of images that show the famous 'face' on Mars in unprecedented detail, with a ground resolution of approximately 13.7 metres per pixel."

Go on, say something in European.

I was being facetious (afterall, what one language does the ESA represent) but if there's one thing I like, it's a joke drawn out far too long.

So here it goes, I'm going to say something in European:

"Yo haß George W. Buisson."

There, how was that? :-)

There definitely is a conspiracy. Why is Bush working so hard to make sure images of this phenomenon were not released? Obviously it's just a coincidence that it looks like a face, but there is definitely something else to it given Bush's actions. What is Bush hiding? How will it hurt us?
