Mars included beaches and oceans with waves and winds

A team of international researchers analyzed data collected by the Chinese “Chorung” probe on the surface of Mars, and found evidence that the red planet had beaches and oceans with waves and winds, according to a study published yesterday “Monday”.

The researchers from American and Chinese universities studied the probe data that landed in the “Utopia Palaysia” area on Mars in 2021 and was aimed at searching for traces of water or old ice, as he used low and high -frequency radars to study the geology of its surroundings.

“We find places on Mars that appeared to be beaches and ancient rivers. We found evidence of winds, waves and large amounts of sand, just like the beaches of holidays,” said Benjamin Kardinas, assistant professor of geology at the American University of Pennsylvania State and one of the research participants.

The researchers explained in their scientific paper published in the “facts of the American National Academy of Sciences” that there are multiple notes indicating that large quantities of liquid water were present on the surface of Mars in the past, but the nature of this water and its fate are still not certain.

They added that these results indicate the presence of a large water body in the past, which supports the hypothesis of an old environment in the northern plains of Mars.

Class deposits under the surface

Cardinas indicated that the data revealed class deposits under the surface, taking the form of layers -like layers, and descending as if they were towards oceans.

He added: “This matter caught our attention immediately, because it indicates the presence of waves, which means a dynamic interaction between air and water.”

He added that this discovery supports the hypothesis that a vast environment was covering a large part of the Arctic of Mars in the past.

For his part, Michael Manga of the University of California, Berkeley, said that the hacker radar technology provides them with a vision of what is under the surface of Mars, which allows them to have a geological study that could not be done previously, indicating that all these amazing developments in technology allow them to conduct Basic studies reveal a treasure of new information about Mars.
