Mars crater
One of the largest meteor impacts ever witnessed in the solar system was recorded by two different Mars missions. This impact caused seismic waves to severely envelop the planet, allowing scientists to learn more about the internal structure of Mars. The crater formed on Mars allowed us to learn more about the planet As a result of this collision, which took place on December 24, 2021, a magnitude 4 earthquake was observed with the NASA Insight vehicle. However, researchers examining surface images collected from orbit by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter have noticed a huge crater forming at the same time as earthquakes following the meteor impact. Stating that such a large crater is unprecedented, the researchers hope that they will be able to reach more information about Mars. Scientists said that the discovered crater is an exciting moment in the history of geology, and they will continue their research. The meteor that hit the planet is estimated to be between 5 and 12 meters wide.
