Alien Artifacts on Mars: What NASA doesn't want you to know

on July 25th 1976 a NASA scientist was. studying the images of a region of Mars. called cydonia when something caught his. eye he had to take a second to process. what he was seeing he grabbed a. magnifying glass there was no doubt on. the surface of Mars 140 million miles. from Earth was a structure in the shape. of a human face it was huge about a mile. wide and showed two eyes a nose and a. mouth around the face were pyramids and. structures that didn't look natural they.

looked like they were built by someone. the following day NASA held a press. conference of the thousands of photos. sent back from Mars all anyone asked. about was the face who built it and why. is it a message from an advanced. Civilization now long extinct is it a. religious artifact is it solid like the. Great Sphinx or could it contain. Chambers like the Great Pyramid then. NASA threw cold water on the speculation. they said there was a second photograph. of the area taken shortly after and that.

photo showed that the face was nothing. more than an optical illusion small. problem that second photo doesn't exist. so why did NASA lie well the answer to. that question is in the other pictures. foreign. for centuries we've been captivated by. The Mysteries of the red planet the. ancient Egyptians saw Mars as a God the. Greeks named it after their God of War. but it wasn't until the 19th century. that we began to unravel some of its.

secrets in 1877 Italian astronomer. Giovanni scaparelli made detailed. observations of Mars he saw strange. markings on the surface that he called. Canali oh I love those it's like an. Italian sweet cheese taco that's cannoli. delicious Canali means channels in. Italian but the media thought it meant. canals and this led to speculation that. the canals might have been built by an. intelligent race of martians and as. technology improved and with the space. race in full swing getting close-up.

photos of Mars became a priority in 1965. the Mariner 4 probe flew past Mars and. sent back 22 images even though the. first pictures of Mars were exciting. they were also disappointing. there were no vast cities where canals. or any evidence of an ancient culture. Mars looked like the moon harsh Baron. pockmarked by meteors completely. lifeless but as technology continued to. improve the idea of Life on Mars became. less far-fetched yes Mars is cold and.

Barren now but years ago that wasn't the. case. Mars was once covered with vast oceans. of water flowing into rivers and lakes. all over the planet it had a thick. atmosphere that kept the surface warm. Mars had volcanic activity and even a. global magnetic field just like Earth it. was a long time ago but the red planet. was at one time a blue planet with all. the ingredients necessary to support. life in 1975 NASA sent two spacecraft to. Mars Viking 1 and Viking 2. these probes.

each contained an Orbiter with a high. resolution camera and a Lander in the. summer of 1976 biking 1 and Viking 2. finally reached Mars both orbiters took. thousands of photographs of the Martian. surface NASA scientist Toby Owen was one. of the first researchers assigned to. look for landing sites and when Owen. found the face on image. 35-a72 he was beyond excited NASA. released the image to the press as a way. to increase public interest and attract.

attention to Mars this worked but a. little too well because the face was the. only thing the Press wanted to talk. about it became such a big story that. NASA had to release a follow-up. statement about the face saying it was. just an optical illusion and they took. another photo to prove it isn't it. peculiar what tricks of light and Shadow. can do when we took another picture a. few hours later it all went away it was. just a trick just the way the light fell. on it. except that second photo was never. produced and nobody thought to ask face.

or not cydonia was the top Contender for. the landing site of Viking 2. the. terrain is flat visibility was good and. there are interesting rock formations to. explore but a few days after the release. of the face photo Viking 2 landed in a. Barren Rocky region called Utopia. planitia one scientists working on the. mission complained that this was like. Landing in the Sahara Desert and. expecting to find a garden so why the. last minute change of the landing site. is there something going on in cydonia. that NASA doesn't want us to see well.

the answer is yes lots of things. [Music]. monuments are not built in isolation the. pyramids found in Egypt or in Central or. South America were not single structures. they were part of sprawling complexes of. buildings Town squares and temples if an. ancient culture living on Mars created a. monument of a humanoid head we'd expect. to see other structures close by and. that's exactly what we see. there's a cluster of pyramids near the.

face that people call the city square. and near those is an object nicknamed. The Fortress which appears to be a. collapsed pyramid there's a formation. called the DNM pyramid named for NASA. Imaging scientists Vince D Pietro and. Greg molinar DNM is a massive five-sided. one and a half mile tall structure this. is three times the size of the largest. Pyramid in Egypt but what's really. interesting about the DNM pyramid is. that it's symmetrical around two. different axes now it's easy to dismiss.

these findings that it's nothing more. than a coincidence that all these weird. looking structures and pyramids are. within a few miles of the face but then. a professional satellite imaging. specialist named Errol tauren started. looking into it he worked for the. defense mapping agency and his job was. literally to analyze satellite images. and decide which objects were natural. and which were artificial he said that. all the objects including the face were. not of natural origin but the DNM. pyramid really blew his mind the.

geomorphic natural hypothesis is thus. left with no mechanism that can explain. the formation of the DNM pyramid this. object's five-sided shape and bilateral. symmetry is unlike any landform seen to. date in this solar system tauren called. this pyramid the Rosetta Stone of Mars. he found all kinds of mathematical. relationships between objects in the. area and as more photos came back from. Mars we found more strange objects a lot. more.

over the past 50 years thousands of. images have come back from Mars and if. you look through those images you'll. find all sorts of things that look out. of place this is an extremely tall. almost perfectly rectangular monolith. here's another monolith this one stands. over 10 miles high If This Were on Earth. it would extend up through the clouds. the top is so high that even the largest. airliners would fly below it. this object has been nicknamed the. Shipwreck because it looks like the.

remains of a boat is it an ancient craft. or maybe the foundation of a structure. in May 2022 Curiosity Rover found a. doorway carved in the rock face. I wonder where it goes here are giant. tracks on the surface giant what kind of. machine could make this. now this object doesn't look like a. natural rock formation. this one is called The Martian totem. pole you can make the argument that. erosion created most of the odd features. on Mars but this one is very strange I.

don't see how erosion could do this. curiosity took this picture in 2015. it. looks like something is hanging onto the. cliffs here's a dome or the top of a. sphere. these structures were famously called. glass worms by Arthur C Clarke. here's an object that's definitely not a. rock formation a series of still images. shows an orb of light moving around the. Martian landscape Skeptics say this is a. dead pixel but dead pixels don't move. around the frame besides whatever this.

is It's larger than just a pixel here's. one that blows my mind this looks like. the imprint of a valve or a gear this. was taken with the opportunities. microscopic imager could this be the. imprint left by the piece of an ancient. machine how could this Mark be formed. naturally how about this this was taken. by the Mars Global surveyor in the year. 2000. this saucer-shaped formation or. structure really stands out from the. surrounding landscape and these are just. a few of the anomalies found on Mars.

there are many many more a few years. after the release of the infamous face. photo Dipietro and molinar decided to. look for the original so they could. analyze it themselves at first they had. trouble locating it turns out it was. misfiled eventually they found 35 a72. labeled head in the Viking image files. and after reviewing the photo Dipietro. molinar felt that despite what NASA. claimed there was more to the face than. a trick of light and Shadow so they. looked for the second image the one that.

NASA said proves the face is Just an. Illusion how did they find it Well it. was misfiled but they did find a second. photo of the face and this one has even. more detail. foreign. ER felt that there was more to the face. on Mars than an optical illusion to. prove or disprove the theory they would. need more photos even though there were. other pictures taken of the face they. were surprised to find that they seemed. to have disappeared oh they was.

surprised that NASA lost the pictures at. they must be new at this uh tell me. again what happened to NASA's recordings. of the moon landing oh yeah they lost. those two unless. does seem to be the case you know it's a. good thing the moon landing was fake. otherwise that would have been really. embarrassing they also couldn't find the. quote-unquote disconfirming photographs. that Gerald soffit mentioned five years. earlier but even though it was filed in. the wrong place they did find a second. photo of the face on Mars and this.

second image showed more detail and less. shadow on the left side of the face. there appeared to be two eye sockets a. nose and even a mouth but the weirdest. thing was that the structure had two. parallel and even length sides both. hundreds of yards long and perfectly. straight and the top and bottom edges. were both curved and had the same radius. it looked like a symmetrical framed. platform for the face itself according. to geologists and imaging experts the. faces base if that's what it is is. different than anything you'd likely see.

in nature Dipietro did more analysis and. found evidence of a pupil in the left. eye socket NASA scoffed at the new. findings so the two researchers sought. some outside help and this is where. science journalist Richard ho stepped. into the picture he organized an. independent research group and began. studying the images in Greater detail. computer Imaging specialist Dr Mark. carlato was brought onto the team his. new image enhancement techniques showed. what looked like teeth in the mouth and.

an odd stripe pattern on the frame areas. excited by what they found Hoagland. arranged for a briefing on the results. with Carl Sagan at Nasa Carl Sagan the. millions of billions got I went to. turtleneck sweaters yep that's him have. trillions Millions billion trillions. billions. trillion Millions million millions. millions. billions Millions. million million Millions at the meeting. Carl Sagan acted impressed but he.

attacked the face on Mars theory in the. newspapers Oakland pressed NASA for more. photos but NASA said it was unnecessary. mystery solved but NASA didn't realize. that Richard Hoagland had a platform a. big platform. oh. and the high desert has a great American. southwest have you all good evening good. morning good afternoon wherever you may. be in whatever time zone wherever you. are in the world this is Coast to Coast. AM and I'm Art Bell break me here lots.

to do tonight our Bell host of Coast to. Coast AM reached millions of people and. Richard Hoagland was on the show all the. time with access to Art Bell's audience. Hoagland was able to generate letter. writing and call-in campaigns to force. NASA to take new pictures of the face. and pyramids at cydonia now NASA didn't. agree immediately but the pressure was. starting to mount because in just a few. more months NASA was going back to Mars. foreign.

1993 NASA launched the Mars Observer the. first mission to Mars since the Viking. days and liftoff liftoff of the Titan. free rocket with the Mars Observer and. America's return to the red planet. and NASA wasn't even going to include a. camera but an uproar from the public. forced NASA to include one there was a. lot of excitement about the Mars. Observer because the new camera was good. enough to finally end the debate about. the face and the pyramids in cydonia at.

least that was the hope the reality was. somewhat different even after the launch. NASA maintained that they had no. interest in photographing the face or. cydonia the debate went back and forth. until about three days before Mars. Observer was inserted into Mars orbit. the probe insertion don't don't be an. infant that Sunday morning before the. maneuver did the maneuver to insert the. probe stop it the Sunday before the. Observer was placed into orbit NASA sent. out the Mars Observer lead project.

scientist Dr Bevin French to debate. Hoagland on Good Morning America now to. put it gently it did not go well for Dr. French or NASA we now have set of data. so extraordinary that it demands in the. venue of any decent science simply. testing the hypothesis. the problem is that there are some folks. in NASA in charge of the next mission. going back specifically that camera I. referred to who seem less than. overwhelmingly inclined to perform the.

simple test. they will not guarantee strange as it. may seem. they're taking new pictures is on the. Mars Observer agenda by the end of the. debate even the host was asking NASA why. don't you just take the pictures and. prove these guys wrong Dr French didn't. have a good answer for that but what. happened next was even more suspicious. less than five minutes after the debate. aired NASA made an announcement the Mars. Observer probe had disappeared they'd. lost all contact with it wait what so it.

didn't matter who won the debate there. would be no pictures of Mars they lost. this thing too yep uh you know NASA. might want to invest in some air tags or. something to help him keep track of all. this stuff good idea you know at the end. of the day at Nasa I picked your 400. scientists just just wandering around a. puck and let that you know looking for. where they looked at cuz and here's an. interesting side note Hoagland and. others claimed they were getting leaked. information from NASA insiders according. to the leakers the Mars Observer was. still out there and running just fine in.

fact it was taking pictures of the face. and all kinds of other weird objects on. Mars but even if NASA had those pictures. they couldn't show them publicly. especially if they showed the face was. an artificial construction NASA. continued to claim that the face was. nothing more than a pile of rocks but. since they couldn't take a photo to. prove it they did the next best thing. they created one. [Music]. five years after the Mars Observer. Fiasco NASA launched a new probe called.

Mars Global surveyor three two one we. have ignition. and we have liftoff uh says Mars Global. surveyor as America begins its Journey. Back to the red planet and even though. there were newer better cameras. available NASA insisted on using the old. ones and once again NASA didn't want to. take pictures of cydonia or the face but. after public pressure they finally. agreed to take a few pictures then NASA. finally made a big announcement on April. 5th 1998 NASA finally released a highly.

detailed picture of the face on Mars. what the hell. what was released was a grainy. noise-filled image of the face in bad. lighting bad weather and with multiple. filters applied that night on the Art. Bell program Oakland and his team were. upset Bell said that from his. perspective the image looked like. something my kitty would scratch up in. her cat box and from that moment forward. it would be forever known as the cat box. image but it looked like this image was.

deliberately manipulated by NASA land. Fleming a NASA contractor went back to. the source data and tried to reproduce. the cat box image at first he couldn't. but eventually after applying 14. different Photoshop filters he was able. to do it and he realized this could not. be done by accident. JPL removed most of the tonal variation. in the original image that gives the. Observer the visual cues to the real. three-dimensional shape of the object. they added false visual cues to give the.

object its rough jumbled appearance. inadvertently falsifying the appearance. of the surrounding terrain as well the. tapbox is not a poor enhancement as it. is often called it is a crude but very. effective fraud perpetrated by employees. or contractors to the United States. government even if the face is proven to. be completely natural this is. inexcusable misconduct and a gross abuse. of power if the face ultimately is. proven to be artificial the cat box will.

certainly come to be regarded as the. greatest most malicious and most. destructive scientific hoax of all time. ever since the first color images came. back from Mars they've always been. suspicious. the colors were dominated by this weird. orange Haze NASA said this is because of. all the carbon dioxide and red dust in. the atmosphere well a carbon dioxide. atmosphere would still be blue not a. deep blue like on Earth but a grayish. blue but the images from Mars show the.

sky is this weird reddish green color so. what's going on. these photos make the surface of Mars. look like a weird alien world but it's. not an accurate representation of color. nothing is so uniformly one color like. this for some reason before releasing. images of Mars they ran the images. through an orange filter now in the. 1990s nobody would really question this. but modern digital photography software. like Photoshop can tell if a single. color is applied to an image uniformly. this is a simple calculation for.

software it's how white balancing is. achieved in photography and video it's. such an easy calculation that current. versions of Photoshop give you a. one-click way to solve for false color. the function is called well Auto color. so look at this early very blurry image. of Mars that looks like Mars well the. version of Mars that's been fed to us. for years but remember Photoshop can. correct for false color if we Auto color. this whoa right now that's a very. different image let's do a few more.

[Music]. whoa. [Music]. NASA eventually learned that their. orange filter technique was easily. spotted so recent pictures of Mars no. longer have the weird orange tint now. even NASA's pictures show a blue gray. sky and a lot of different colors in the. landscape but why would NASA not want us. to know that Mars has blue skies some. say it's to discourage people from.

wanting to visit Mars the more alien it. looks the better so Mars had oceans and. a thick atmosphere and could have. supported life if intelligent life did. evolve on Mars and the face and other. artifacts are not piles of rocks but are. actually ruins of a long-lost society we. have to ask what happened to that. ancient civilization well the answer to. that question could be the reason that. the governments of the world have lied. to us about Mars for so many years. because there is evidence scientific. evidence that millions of years ago the.

planet Mars was devastated by a massive. Global nuclear war. foreign. Rover arrived on Mars in August 2012 and. started analyzing samples from the. surface NASA scientists were expecting. to find soil containing heavily oxidized. iron which they did but what nobody. expected to find was evidence of a. massive nuclear war chemical analysis. revealed that the top layer of Martian. soil contains a large amount of.

xenon-129 there's only one known process. that creates this particular isotope of. xenon the detonation of nuclear weapons. now over the course of 70 years over 1. 000 nuclear tests have been conducted on. Earth and every time a nuclear bomb is. detonated the explosion leaves behind. small traces of xenon-129 the amount of. xenon 129 in Martian soil is two and a. half times higher than Earth Dr John.

Brandenburg is a former NASA physicist. and a well-known Mars researcher he was. a scientist who accompanied Richard. Hoagland to NASA to present their. findings about the face in cydonia Dr. Brandenburg believes that a humanoid. civilization lived on Mars and died on. Mars I have shown this to several. nuclear weapons experts and they have. affirmed that this is nuclear weapon. signature there is no other process that. can create such a Xenon spectral. for so much Xenon to be deposited on the.

surface the nuclear weapon would have to. be the size of the Empire State Building. with an energy equivalent to 1 000. megatons for comparison the bomb dropped. on Hiroshima was 20 kilotons so we're. talking an explosion 50 000 times more. powerful and Dr Brandenburg found two. hot spots on Mars where radiation levels. are higher than anywhere else and right. in between those hot spots is cydonia. the location of the face the pyramid and.

the other structures dating the Isotopes. places the explosions somewhere between. 150 and 300 million years ago Mars was. at one time a blue planet like Earth. covered in oceans and a thick atmosphere. but nobody knows for sure how Mars lost. its atmosphere a nuclear explosion of. this size would answer that question now. this is a frightening Theory but it gets. even more disturbing if an intelligent. race created the face and other. structures on Mars they wouldn't have. been that technologically advanced they.

were maybe an Iron Age civilization. those people would not have the. technology to create such a devastating. nuclear weapon this means the weapons. were detonated by someone else don't say. aliens don't say aliens aliens. time of this event on Mars the most. advanced creatures on Earth were. reptiles dinosaurs hadn't even evolved. yet maybe whoever destroyed Mars ignored. us reptiles wouldn't pose much of a. threat to them but what if they return. another theory is that intelligent life.

on Mars did reach an advanced level of. technology advanced enough to destroy. themselves in a nuclear apocalypse but. before that catastrophic event a small. group of these humanoids escaped off. world so who were those martians that. managed to escape Annihilation well. they're us. [Music]. foreign. for a show like this the exploration of. Mars is a gift that started giving in. the 1960s and just keeps on giving we've. got ancient civilizations government.

cover-ups alien invasions a nuclear. apocalypse and more conspiracies than I. can count but how much of all this is. true well I can't really debunk most of. this episode because well Mars is. another planet it's not like we can go. see for ourselves at least not yet the. flow of information comes from a single. Source the United States government well. assume everything they say is a lie. that's a pessimistic point of view and. what can I tell you I've been hurt. before but let me give you some. perspective first every single object on. Mars that looks artificial could be.

attributed to paradolia that's a word. you'll hear a lot from NASA paradolia is. the human tendency to find meaning in. random stimuli like the imperfections of. a piece of wood that look like a polar. bear or a stadium that looks like a UFO. or a cloud shaped like a crab kid right. kid seeing animals is common but the. most common thing we see. in fact if you look at the Wiki page for. paradolia the picture of the face on. Mars is the main example.

what do you mean Wikipedia isn't biased. you're adorable but is the face on Mars. an optical illusion or is there. something there well plenty of. scientists NASA scientists thought there. was something there though we don't hear. much from them anymore most scientists. think it's just an illusion when NASA. released their detailed picture of the. face which showed it has a pile of rocks. they thought they put the conspiracy to. bed the problem is NASA does alter. images in fact they alter every image. they release to the public and now Chris.

Martinez is introducing us to two of the. artists behind some of the most iconic. space art in the Galaxy NASA says this. is to make the images easier to. understand or to make them more visually. appealing yeah even Nasa uses filters on. her instant they do now I don't like. that NASA has artists on staff to. photoshop images but I understand that. some photos have to be adjusted to make. them more digestible to the public but. there are some really weird NASA. photoshops here's the famous photo of.

the earth taken from Apollo 17. and. here's a 3D model of the Earth released. by Google and the US Navy the model is. supposed to be mathematically perfect. but the land masses don't line up like. not even close here are examples of NASA. copy pasting clouds on a picture of the. Earth. the copy paste technique has been used. on Mars images too these are from the. Curiosity Rover. now maybe there are good reasons for.

faking these images though I can't think. of any but if you fake one image we. can't trust any of them so when you see. this picture of Mars. people say this looks exactly like Devon. Island the uninhabited Island in Canada. where NASA trains crew members and. testus Rovers. I wanted to talk to you. talk to you about it from Curiosity this. looks like Devon Island but with an. orange filter on no no that's Mars yeah. but it's the red planet yeah no I know.

it's called the red planet but I'm. pretty sure this picture of Devon Island. got uh slipped in accidentally no no. no one that's sparse okay then why is. this animal hiding behind the rocks. okay but that sure does look like an. Arctic lemming what the hell. dick lemming is a type of small rodent. that hides in the Rocks all over Devon. Island. hello all right you know what thank you. and your stupid YouTube channel you.

could take your Arctic learning and. shove it straight up your ass. so how much you trust NASA is up to you. but I wouldn't trust them 100 but some. people go to the extreme with the Mars. images now below this Eagle is a whole. city of bird and deer formations in the. Sedona area there's a parrot look again. there's the parrot again now if you're. uh looking at this area directly below. the crater that has the uh the eagle in. it they see parrots and dolphins and all. sorts of things in the pictures.

now I don't see these things unless. they're specifically pointed out to me I. think most of those images are a stretch. but I don't need anyone to hold my hand. with the picture of the face that one I. can clearly see as for Richard Hoagland. you've heard me talk about him a lot. especially on the after files live. stream he was always one of my favorite. guests on Art Bell very well spoken guy. very entertaining but he has plenty of. detractors he's been a favorite Target. of sites like bad astronomy and. skeptical Inquirer he's been accused of. exaggerating his credentials and his. experience but let me come to Richard's.

defense a little bit all scientists do. that Richard Hoagland might be wrong. about some things and I think he's. probably wrong about most things but. he's provided a valuable service and. it's something I don't think he gets. enough credit for he got millions of. regular folks interested in the space. program and because of that he was able. to sway NASA into taking pictures of. Mars that we might not have ever seen. and he's shown us that we have to keep. an eye on NASA we need people like. Richard Hoagland out there we need. watchdogs specifically Watchdogs with.

access and with the ability to influence. policy as for Dr John Brandenburg and. his nuclear war on Mars Theory Dr. Brandenburg is well respected and well. credentialed his earliest papers on the. Mars theory was that a nuclear event. happened naturally on the planet there's. a uranium mine in Gabon Africa which. shows evidence of nuclear fission. occurring naturally so it's not a. stretch to think this could happen on. Mars but after a while Dr Brandenburg. claimed that what happened on Mars did. not happen naturally that the only way.

we see isotopes of xenon-129 is from the. discharge of a nuclear weapon now I've. read both sides of this argument and I'm. not sure who's right but Dr Brandon. burries Mars nuclear war theory was. rejected for peer review but that's. mainstream scientists though they're not. always correct but they always have an. agenda right or wrong it's an. interesting theory that deserves. attention and study not ridicule but you. can't talk about Mars without being. ridiculed yes most everything we see in. photographs from Mars can be explained. but there are couple of things that.

can't we've sent mission after mission. to Mars and I can't for the life of me. understand why we haven't sent a Rover. through cydonia and right up to the. object that's supposed to be a face NASA. says there's nothing there so it would. be a waste of resources but with all due. respect to NASA their resources come. from we the people and we the people. want to know what the face on Mars. really is now until we have close-up. photographs of cydonia close-up. photographs that we can trust are. undoctored the story about the face on. Mars is not going away and not as long.

as it generates clicks huh true and look. I completely agree that the chances of. the face being an artificial structure. are almost zero but almost zero isn't. zero if there's even the slightest. chance that the face and the pyramids. were created by a civilization on Mars. we deserve to know but more importantly. the people who built those monuments. they deserve to be remembered.
