15 wrz 2021 · By studying the topography and mineral composition of a portion of the Arabia Terra region in northern Mars, scientists recently found evidence for thousands of such eruptions, or “super eruptions,” which are the most violent volcanic explosions known. Spewing water vapor, carbon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide into the air, these explosions ...
24 lut 2024 · The paper suggests that intense volcanism occurred on ancient Mars, causing the crust to collapse into the mantle, where the rocks re-melted, resulting in magmas that have high silica.
23 wrz 2024 · New data on the weighty subject of gravity on Mars is shedding light on the planet’s hidden structures and providing fresh insights into the volcanic activity that gave rise to Olympus Mons, the largest volcano in our Solar System.
4 kwi 2018 · The ancient terrains of Mars are puzzling. Mars is currently cold and dry with a thin atmosphere. But valley networks sculpted more than 3.5 billion years ago are strikingly similar in their...
The combined analyses of zircons and apatites from various igneous clasts as well as the matrix from NWA 7034 can further investigate more potential ancient geologic events, constraining the evolution of these ancient geological events on Mars.
The geological history of Mars follows the physical evolution of Mars as substantiated by observations, indirect and direct measurements, and various inference techniques.
27 sie 2024 · Determining whether there was a northern ocean on Mars is crucial for understanding its climate history, geological processes and potential for ancient life, and for guiding future explorations.
