Planet Mars has been the focus of NASA's attention for a very long time, the American space agency trying to discover as much information as possible about it, and now we are talking about an extraordinary discovery. More precisely, based on the data collected by NASA, the researchers discovered that by analyzing the ice on the planet Mars, they can find out information about the multiple ice ages that the cosmic body went through throughout its existence, and it is impressive that there are more.
Planet Mars it would have gone through 6-20 ice ages in the last 300-800 million years, so there are many areas with a lot of ice that hide the long history of this planet. Unlike the Earth, the planet Mars still has glaciers from the various ice ages it went through, and this because the -62 degrees Celsius temperature did not allow them to thaw, as happened to our planet over thousands of years .
Planet Mars: EXTRAORDINARY Discovery that Totally Surprised
Planet Mars it was until now at the center of theories that said that there would have actually been one prolonged ice age, and not more, as scientists now say based on the analyzes done. More than 60.000 rocks from the planet Mars were analyzed by scientists to reach this conclusion, but we are talking about analyzes based on images taken from the satellite, and not about some made on the surface, where people have not yet reached .
"All the rocks and sand carried on that ice remained on the surface. It's like putting ice in a cooler under all that sediment. I did some kind of virtual fieldwork, walking up and down these glaciers and mapping the boulders. In fact, the boulders told us a different story. It doesn't matter their size; it was how they were clustered or clustered."
Planet Mars hides a very old and tumultuous history behind these rocks and glaciers about which scientists do not know much yet, so they have a lot to discover about them. This means that we will find out other important information about the planet Mars in the future, but after people will reach the surface, many other secrets will be able to be elucidated, as the evidence from there will reach the Earth.
Planet Mars it is the next big objective of those from NASA, who want to send people to explore it as soon as possible, but there is still a lot of work until that happens.
