-Cydonia-


The Cydonia region photographed by Viking I in 1976. The image contains a strange bunch of formations not normally seen in nature. There layout is strange as well.

Richard Hoagland and The Mars Mission found a number of structures that did not match the terrain in the area. Geologists said it was highly improbable that these structures would have been formed through wind/water erosion over the millenia. After discovering that the geographical location of the structures and their geometrical layout actually formed a "message" -- the angles between the buildings, Face, D & M Pyramid and other structures redundantly pointing out mathematical constants and ratios such as pi [3.14] and e [2.72] and specific angles such as 19.5 degrees -- the extreme significance of Cydonia cannot be ignored.

When SETI (the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) was first proposed, the first contact was expected to be made by receiving a radio signal which encoded a message using universal mathematical constants which can be easily understood by any intelligence notwithstanding the different languages. At Cydonia we have a group of highly anomalous structures on a neighbouring planet that is not only encoding a number of universal constants in the very way it was built, but when translated, these constants/ratios/angles, are actually giving us what now seems to be a New Physics! This cannot be anything but proof that the message of Cydonia is of intelligent, extra-terrestrial origin and not "a trick of light and shadow" as NASA is so fond of saying.

The Face

AT 2.5 km long, 2 km wide and 400 meters high, this huge structure has detaild facial features that appear to have been eroded over the years. The mouth and eyes and border are still cleary defined even after millions of years of wind erosion.

The City

A group of large pyramids to the West of the Face. Note the five columns/mounds in the exact centre of the city. Someone standing at this point and looking eastwards would have seen the sun rising over the Face during the summer solstice, showing that the buildings were built with specific celestial alignments in mind, once again confirming their artificiality.

The Fort

One of the most unusual structures in the whole complex is a three walled enclosure which due to its shape, has been nicknamed "The Fort". Is it the foundation of a pyramid that was never completed or a collapsed pyramid?

The DM Pyramid

The D & M Pyramid is an enormous five-sided structure. Note the buttresses at each corner, the two damaged sides on the right, and the "bottomless" crater.

The Cliff

To the east of the Face there is a 3 km long cliff. Further east is a large crater with a three-sided pyramid (or tetrahedron) on the edge. Both structures are thought to be artificial. If they had been there before the meteor impacted to form the crater, they would have been damaged. Therefore, the objects were built after the crater was formed!

The City

A few miles to the south of the cliff, a hill or mound known as the "Tholus" forms part of the Cydonia complex. What is so unusual about the Tholus is that it has a spiral ramp circling it like a path to the top. If a vertical line is drawn along the cliff to the top of the Tholus, and another line drawn from the top of the Tholus to the pyramid on the crater's edge, the angle thus formed is 19.5 degrees, an angle found repeatedly throughout the complex.
