Doctor Who & The Face On Mars

(Click for a Larger, Sharper Image)

I've just remembered this, so I thought I'd share!
In 1976, NASA photographed the Cydonia area of Mars, which resulted in the now famous face on Mars photograph being published. The area has since been re-photographed and proven the face is nothing to get excited about, however...
When I first saw the image, the first thing I thought of was Cybermen (Classic, not new of course), I wonder why Doctor Who writers didn't notice the similarity also? I know Mars is more Ice Warriors and Sutekh than Cybermen, but it would have been a very clever story!
Or am I wrong and I've missed something, Doctor Who novels maybe?
