There are countless space objects in our solar system. among these countless celestial bodies. We have divided eight planets, one of the eight planets is called Mars. Today I will tell you about the new discoveries about Mars.
Mars is the closest planet to the sun in the solar system and the second largest asteroid in the solar system after Mercury. It is one of the four terrestrial planets in the solar system.
Water on Mars did indeed exist. Scientists have been studying how water on Mars changed from wet to dry. In recent years, many spacecraft have been sent to Mars for exploration. After exploration in recent years, it was discovered that there were many lakes in a place called Gale Crater, but they have now disappeared. The rover collected clay samples near the crater. These clays indicate the cause of water loss. However, when it comes to specific scientific basis, scientists cannot prove it now.
Methane on Mars is something worth studying, including the history of how it became a barren red planet, and the mystery of whether there is life on Mars.
Methane is a gas that can be produced either from land and water mixtures or from organic matter. In 2019, the rover detected methane on Mars in Gale Crater, at levels never before detected on Mars. Its content is about 21 percent, which is much higher than before. If it was a huge lake as mentioned above. Then it may be caused by geology . On the contrary, it is biologically produced. But for now, it’s not sure what the cause is.
The atmosphere of Mars is very strange. Compared with Earth, Mars has almost no atmosphere. The atmosphere of Mars is very thin, so thin that there is a big hole on Mars. If this big hole opens on the earth, the water on the earth will continue to be sucked into space until it dries up. Scientists believe this may also be the reason why water resources on Mars are so poor.
Summary: Mars is a planet often seen in many science fiction films. Many people fantasize about colonizing Mars. But for now, if the problems about atmosphere, water and volcanoes are not solved, it is basically impossible to have a chance to survive on Mars.
