Cydonia's 'Face on Mars' in 3D animation

The High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) science team have produced a dramatic 3D animation that beautifully simulates a flight over the Cydonia 'Face on Mars', one of the most famous surface features on the planet.


I suppose it makes no difference that the ESA's rendition of the Face on Mars is demonstrably inaccurate. The "debunking" effort clanks predictably forward.

Well, using the "horn" image to make the 3D wasn't unexpected, but I was surprised that they used the image without the horn before the animation.

The ESA seems quite content to contradict their own data.
