We’re innately keyed to the human form psychologically. Our judgements of others, their body language, and their facial expressions takes up a significant portion of our visual processing overheard. No surprise there. Being able to physically read other humans is central to survival and reproduction.

So when we got good at making things, of course we made copies of our mutual obsession for enjoyment. And meanwhile, because of the same pattern recognition brain-stuff, we see the human face and form even when they aren’t actually there. Like that face on Mars, or on the moon.
