Mars' Dynamic Climate Change registered via latest NASA's Perseverance, Curiosity and MRO dataset



The Martian environment, though appearing desolate, exhibits quite active climate system and you can see it on latest NASA’s 4K images from Mars by Perseverance and Curiosity. Dynamics stems from connection between atmospheric composition, temperature variations, and topographical features. A prominent indicator of this activity is the seasonal development of carbon dioxide (CO2) frost.

During Martian winters, expansive plains are covered in this frost, reaching thicknesses up to one meter in polar regions. Unlike Earth’s water-based frost, this icy layer forms directly from the condensation of CO2 gas within the frigid Martian atmosphere.

Observations from rovers, such as Curiosity, demonstrate that valleys experience wind speeds exceeding 70 km/h during dust storms, which can persist for months. Such data enables scientists to refine numerical models of Mars’s current climate system with greater accuracy.

  1. Hinweis unterm Video: "Der Begriff „Klimawandel“ bezeichnet langfristige Temparatur- und Wetterveränderungen, die hauptsächlich durch menschliche Aktivitäten verursacht sind, insbesondere durch die Verbrennung fossiler Brennstoffe." – Das sieht man, dass dieses auch auf dem Mars passieren kann, wenn dort die Dieselbetriebenen Raketen und Rover eingesetzt werden. Wann wird endlich Herr Habeck was dagegen tun und alles abschalten, damit wir nicht nur die Erde, sondern auch den Mars retten können?
