Forget the man in the moon, it’s all about the bear on Mars now.
On Wednesday, NASA researchers shared a satellite image of what looks like a bear’s face on the surface of Mars. The photo was taken on Dec. 12, 2022 by the agency’s High-Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera, which is attached to NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.
“This feature looks a bit like a bear’s face. What is it really?” the HiRISE Twitter account asked.
Though researchers couldn’t say for certain what the bear face was made of, the University of Arizona team tasked with operating the camera said the space-gazing bear is likely made from craters and a circular fracture.
Awwww . I love it when scientists discover random cute things like this!
I do wonder... if we ever settle on Mars, perhaps this will be a minor tourist attraction one day ?
