When you see a face where there is no face, you'd prefer it to look a little more cheerful than this, wouldn't you? This image wasn't generated by artificial intelligence, nor was it Photoshopped; it was taken from the air above Antarctica. You can see it on Google Earth. Is it the face of an alien or a demon?

Most commenters said it's pareidolia, which is the tendency for humans to see faces where there is no face. This is a snowy mountainside with crevasses where the eyes and mouth would be, and that makes it a face for humans, who have a vested interest in recognizing faces. But if it's not a face, it's a surely anguished snowy mountainside. See several pictures and the discussion at reddit. -via Geeks Are Sexy
