NASA’s Perseverance and Curiosity The tools are quite famous. Insight, which is at least as important as these vehicles with its various researches on Mars, also carries out remarkable studies on the red planet. The spacecraft, which revealed how Mars was shaken by earthquakes, reached important data. With the help of Insight, researchers have identified the two largest earthquakes to occur on Mars.
How does a solar eclipse happen on Mars?
Solar eclipse images captured by the Perseverance spacecraft on Mars are quite remarkable.
One of the earthquakes lasted 94 minutes!
The Seismic RecordThe research, published in , looks at Insight data and reveals how earthquakes on Mars are detected. The first of these earthquakes occurred on August 25, 2021, while the other occurred on September 18.
These two earthquakes differ from other earthquakes with some features. These earthquakes stand out primarily as they are the largest Martian earthquakes detected to date. In addition, the mentioned earthquakes draw attention as they occur at a much deeper level than previous tremors.
The magnitude of the August earthquake, called S0976a, is stated to be 4.2. The September earthquake, called S1000a, was 4.1 magnitude. These numbers don’t sound that big at first, but we have to say that these earthquakes are five times bigger than previously detected tremors.
It is stated that the first of the earthquakes lasted a few seconds. In contrast, the second earthquake 94 minutes It has been announced that it has continued through such an unbelievable time. This tremor is also the largest ever recorded. longest earthquake has the feature of being The shaking is also unusually to a wide frequency owner. Accordingly, earthquake energy 0.1 Hz to 5 Hz contains frequencies between
