? An "eye-like" crater on Mars... What is its story
While huge craters are spread on the surface of the Red Planet, resulting from the collision of asteroids, meteorites or comets, the European Space Agency's Mars Express spacecraft took a picture of a volcanic crater on the surface of Mars.
The images showed an eye-shaped crater resembling a huge cornea staring out at the stars.
The information also indicated that the crater is located with a diameter of up to 30 kilometers, and is located in an area in the southern hemisphere of the planet known as “Onia Terra”.
The image also reveals many different colors in the surface around the crater, indicating that this region of Mars is made up of a variety of materials, according to the European Space Agency.
many explanations
It is noteworthy that many reports have stated that craters in the southern half of the planet arose when water flowed in rivers through Mars billions of years ago, according to the “Digital Trends” website.
There are huge volcanic craters scattered on the surface of the Red Planet
While the European Agency saw that there are a variety of possible explanations for this.
She suggested that erosion-resistant deposits may have lodged at the bottom of the channels when water flowed through them, or that the channels may have filled with lava later in Mars' history.
