(ORDO NEWS) — Scientists from Monash University (Australia) found that earlier Mars could be habitable. The results of the study were published in the scientific journal Geology.
During the study, scientists from Monash University, located in Australia, came to the conclusion that throughout the existence of the Red Planet, large-scale erosion processes took place on it.
However, the presence of soil erosion on Mars may indicate that liquid water flowed on its surface.
Researchers have long been trying to unravel the mystery of how the Red Planet went from Earth-like to a desert.
If humanity wants to know if there was life on Mars before, then we first need to carefully study the history of sedimentary rocks, says scientist Andrew Gunn.
He also added that the excessive amount of sand in the craters could be related to the history of the planet’s climate. This opens up a new method for figuring out when the Red Planet might become colonizable.
