The resemblance is uncanny…Could be after all these years we find out Mickey Mouse is an alien? This image was just captured by NASA’s Messenger spacecraft, now orbiting Mercury.

This scene is to the northwest of the recently named crater Magritte, in Mercury’s south. The image is not map projected; the larger crater actually sits to the north of the two smaller ones. The shadowing helps define the striking “Mickey Mouse” resemblance, created by the accumulation of craters over Mercury’s long geologic history.

Somebody is going to have to ‘lawyer up’, Disney has a good case.
