A strange formation resembling a bear’s face was captured on the surface red planet by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter last month.
The eyes form a perfectly positioned crater, stack with a “collapsing V structure” that forms the nose, and a circular head fracture pattern, according to the University of Arizona’s Lunar and Planetary Laboratory, which controls the spacecraft’s camera. .
“The circular fracture pattern could be due to sediment being deposited over a buried impact crater,” the laboratory explained. Perhaps the nose is a volcanic vent or mud and sediment It could be lava slurry flows? “
