Donald Trump’s Fossilized Head
Apparently, President Donald Trump had already been to Mars. This 2009 photo from NASA’s Opportunity rover took the world by storm in 2016. Although we all know this could not possibly be the fossilized head of the President of the United States, the resemblance is uncanny. Even the squint of the eyes and the over-swept wig are on point.
Once again, this strange anomaly may be attributed to pareidolia. It is a psychological phenomenon that tricks our brains into assigning actual objects to vaguely similar shapes, such as when we see bunnies or fire-breathing dragons in random cloud formations.
