Photo of Megatron on Mars?

Megatron on Mars

A bunch of conspiracy nuts posted this supposed photo from Mars. What’s funny is who it looks like.

Hey, Transformers fans, who did the live-action movie trailer show on Mars again? Yup, that’s right: Megatron.

Megatron

The resemblance is striking. This is either a coincidence, an in-joke, or a brilliant marketing ploy.

Come to think of it, Megs is the kind of guy who’d lose his head on some cold barren planet.

    You know, the criteria these brain-addled folks use as a basis for which to hang their conspiracies on, I wouldn’t count
    on their hysteria ending anytime soon. I vividly recall one
    sycophantic “Face on Mars” believer who claimed that the
    in studying the three dimensional pyramid structure that comprised the Face it was mathematical impossible for it
    have been formed naturally and ergo built by aliens/Martian
    civilization.

    Your mind sees what it wants to see. And it is absolutely normal to see a ‘face’ in any surface or shape that contains at least two shadows that could form a pair of eyes. Try it. If you stare against the wall paper or at the surface of a rock in your hand for a while you will also start seeing faces. And many of them will look like cartoons due to their odd shape compared to what our senses are used to see when we look at a human (or animal) face.
    Leonardo Da Vinci used that method to inspire him self more than 500 years ago.
