D&M Pyramid on Mars

In 1976, the Viking mission to Mars obtained images of the Martian surface of an area known as the Cydonia. In analyzing these images, Vincent DiPietro and Gregory Molenaar, image interpreters from NASA, discovered an unusual formation in the form of a human face, dubbed The Face. While some believed that this was an ancient, artificially created structure, many dismissed it as a natural formation. Inspired by these findings, astronomer and former NASA consultant Richard C. Hoagland organized the ?Independent Mars Investigation? in 1983 to further study and analyze the images obtained from the Viking mission. In the investigation, Hoagland discovered and studied other formations inconsistent with Martian geology including the ?City?, a cluster polyhedral objects with a rectangular arrangement and a center of axis pointing at the face, and the D&M Pyramid (named after DiPietro and Molenaar who first noticed it), an immense pyramidal structure, nearly 3 km in length and 1 km high. Hoagland worked with the Stanford Research Institute to study higher quality images of the D&M Pyramid, and found the structure to be a five sided, bilaterally symmetrical pyramid w
