Planet Mercury is at the center of an incredible announcement made by scientists, who come with a series of revelations that show us a completely different "face" of the planet that is so far from Earth. More precisely, scientists say that there could actually be life on the planet Mercury, even if in areas that until now have not been considered as having microorganisms existing inside them, but the reality is completely different.
Planet Mercury had the data recorded by the MESSENGER spacecraft analyzed again by scientists, looking more carefully at certain locations where until now they had not thought to look for traces of life. There they discovered areas where life forms could have existed billions of years ago, but which were possibly destroyed, or preserved, because of the way the planet Mercury changed topographically.
Planet Mercury: INCREDIBLE Announcement Made by Scientists
Planet Mercury it has an area called Caloris, which has attracted the interest of scientists, who say that it was formed by an unknown impact, but before this took place, billions of years ago, the topography was different. Scientists are of the opinion that at least in that area on the planet Mercury there could have been microorganisms at a given time, they being buried under the mountains after the impact that formed the Caloris Basin.
"Mercury's huge Caloris Basin, previously thought to have been formed by an unknown impact, was found by Rodriguez and his team to be two billion years older than the rest of the planet when they took another look at the MESSENGER data. They now believe it was a giant sinkhole that resulted from the collapse of mountains and other terrain, trapping volatiles and other compounds that may have been the breeding ground for primordial microbes. Water is one of these volatile substances.”
Planet Mercury it could have several areas where life existed, but it was buried under mountains, or other forms of relief, which were destroyed by the impact of objects from the universe that hit the planet at high speed. Of course, nobody knows very clearly what happened on the planet Mercury billions of years ago, but researchers are trying, little by little, to discover at least some of the secrets hidden there now.
Planet Mercury it has many secrets that have not yet been revealed, but scientists want to unravel everything so that we can have a much clearer idea of everything that is happening in the universe now.
