🗻 Frosty volcanoes on Mars? Our ExoMars and Mars Express missions have spotted water frost for the first time on top of the Tharsis volcanoes: the tallest volcanoes not only on Mars but in the Solar System. It was detected near Mars’s equator, a part of the planet where it was thought impossible for frost to exist. The researchers propose that air circulates in a peculiar way above Tharsis; this creates a unique microclimate within the calderas of the volcanoes there that allows patches of fros

2.5M views · 29K reactions | Mars lies an average of 225 million kilometres from Earth. Its surface is a cold, dusty desert with towering volcanoes, giant canyons, rocky plains, and unusual rock formations. Ancient riverbeds show that water once flowed here, raising the possibility that life might have existed on the Red Planet long ago. Every rover and orbiter sent there helps us uncover more secrets of this distant world. #NASA #mars #SpaceX | Space Journey | Facebook
