NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter snapped an uncanny photo in December: a formation that kind of looks like a bear.
Two beady eyes are formed by two craters. A hill with a"V-shaped collapse structure" resembles a snout. A"circular fracture pattern" outlines a head.
"The circular fracture pattern might be due to the settling of a deposit over a buried impact crater," the University of Arizona's Lunar and Planetary Laboratory says."Maybe the nose is a volcanic or mud vent and the deposit could be lava or mud flows?"
