Mars today has a dry and dead planet, but as soon as the wonderful sandy beaches and huge oceans boast – they can also create a favorable environment for microbial life.
February 24, A new study published in the procedures of the National Academy of Sciences According to the circumstances that were favorable to life, it can survive up to tens of millions of years, so Mars can certainly have a shelter for early lifestyles.
100 years ago, Mars was investigated when a strange radio mark came from there
The first scientific experience was a century of searching for a foreign life – and it was brought in a sudden result that has not been explained yet.
The search depends on the data collected by the Chinese Mars. In 2021, Rover fell in the Plantia Utopia area and is equipped with soil radar, which allows layers under the surface of the planet. An international research team, including members of the Pennsylvania State University, analyzed data and identified underground layers similar to geological formations on the ground.
“We have found areas on Mars that resemble the beaches and ancient flowers.” Benjamin Cardinas, a geological scientist of Pennsylvania and a author.
“There were winds, waves and a lot of sand – an ideal beach for vacation.”
The most important discovery for research was to determine the “deposits mentioned above”. These are the layers of sloping deposits that consist of waves and tidal movement. Similar deposits on the Earth's coast indicate that Mars was once a large mass of water on Mars, which, in addition, was the active wave movement.
“This came immediately because it indicates the presence of waves, which means that there was a dynamic interface between water and air,” Cardinas explained.
The study showed that these sediments and the thickness of this Mars deposits are remarkably equal to the formations on the Earth's coast. The researchers excluded alternative explanations, such as river activity, volcanic processes or wind erosion, so the previous ocean is the most likely origin of the discovered layer. Thus, the previous theoretical consequences of the fact that a large part of the northern hemisphere of Mars can be covered.

The initial model has been completed, the test can start.
And if there is already a large mass of water on Mars that created waves, stretching and carrots, it may have great importance to the previous planet's ability.
“If we look at the place where the first life was formed on Earth, we see at the ocean meeting and the main righteousness,” Cardinas said. “This draws a picture of the old Mars that the planet was suitable for the survival of microbial life.”

Hi, beef square!
These favorable conditions may be present for millions of years, providing opportunities to develop the coastal line and provide enough time to develop life. Thus, Mars was not always an inevitable planet, but one day it was a dynamic world formed by geological and geological processes.
