A strange formation that resembles a bear's face was captured on the surface of the Red Planet by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter last month.

"The circular fracture pattern might be due to the settling of a deposit over a buried impact crater," the lab explained.

The University of Arizona released this photo of a formation on the surface of Mars that resembles a bear's face.

The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, which lifted off from Earth in 2005, is just one of multiple spacecrafts NASA is using to explore the Red Planet.

Last year, the Curiosity rover snapped a photo of what appears to be a door carved into the otherworldly landscape.

Perseverance, NASA's other rover on the Red Planet, has been collecting rock samples with its robotic arm and exploring Mars' landscape since 2021.
