Don't shoot me!  A number of Babylon 5 and Crusade episodes take place
on Mars! So....

Many of you may remember the "Face on Mars" revealed 25 years ago in
NASA Viking 1 images.  Many will remember all the hoo hah which followed
and has continued into the now.

NASA has new imagery of the Cydonia region of Mars, and in particular,
the mesa which has been referred to as "The Face on Mars".

Details at

Of course, the "Real Story" will be revealed in the National Perspirer
next week :-)

See, here's my thought, which I voiced at a dinner a couple of years ago with a
bunch of NASA/JPL types....

"You guys are always fighting to get money and budgets approved.  But if you
said, 'We don't know what it is...I mean, it's PROBABLY not a face, but maybe
it IS a face, we should go and check it out just in case,' you'd get all the
money you'd ever want."
