Haas and William R. Saunders use archaeological research discoveries and photographs from NASA and other space programs to document the uncanny similarities between Martian and now-extinct Earth cultures. \u003ci\u003eThe Martian Codex \u003c\/i\u003ebegins with a review of the thirty-year history of documenting the famous “Face on Mars” landform from NASA’s first photographs in 1976 to the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter’s HiRISE shots in 2007. Detailed analysis shows it as a split-faced structure that precisely resembles a set of masks from a temple in Cerros, Mexico.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart two provides additional examples of two-faced and composite structures all over the red planet. Haas and Saunders explore a series of recurring motifs by providing side-by-side views of the Martian geoglyphs with their terrestrial pre-Columbian counterparts. The results substantiate a commonality between two worlds in that both depict specific gods and characters from the creation mythology of the Mayan people, as recorded in the sacred Popol Vuh. This fact-based book represents the most persuasive argument yet that extraterrestrials may indeed have appeared on Earth during an earlier era.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"North Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47055769108720,"sku":"9781556438141","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781556438141_p0.jpg?v=1763761226","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781556438141","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
