Planet Mars it is the most intensively monitored in the entire solar system, and this is also because there is great interest in visiting it in the coming years, NASA having multiple ships that follow it constantly. Well, one of them detected something completely unusual in the last monitorings done for the planet Mars, more precisely, they are related to the eclipses that happen there, which are different from those on Earth.
Planet Mars it has a moon that is much closer to it than ours to Earth, and this means that eclipses also occur much more often, but separate from the partial covering of the sun, the moons also come with another effect. It seems that even very small earthquakes occur when an eclipse occurs near the planet Mars, and this phenomenon is very unusual for Earth, but it seems that it is also for this planet.
Planet Mars: INCREDIBLE Discovery Made by Researchers
Planet Mars it has eclipses that last only 30 seconds, but the NASA robot that records any kind of tectonic movements there has also recorded very small earthquakes that occur during eclipses. If on Earth there are changes in temperature and atmospheric pressure during eclipses, on the planet Mars things are completely different, and there are very small earthquakes, something that comes as a rather unusual surprise to many people.
"When the Earth experiences a solar eclipse, the instruments can detect a drop in temperature and rapid gusts of wind as the atmosphere cools in a certain place and the air moves away from that place. When Phobos is in front of the Sun, less sunlight reaches the solar cells, and they in turn produce less electricity. The decline in light exposure caused by the shadow of Phobos can be measured. But we did not expect the reading of this seismometer; it is an unusual signal.”
Planet Mars it is surprising from many points of view, so that everything that NASA has recorded now amazes only the scientists who have not observed very carefully the things that are happening there. NASA has been recording these earthquakes for some time on the planet Mars, but only now have the first more detailed explanations about what happens in situations like this started to appear, and there is still a lot of research to be done.
Planet Mars it remains a source of many discoveries, and many of them will come only after the first astronauts will be sent there by those from NASA to closely explore the cosmic body.
