speculate that volcanic activity in the inner layers of the planet is the cause of the newly detected quakes.<\/p>\n<p>If true, the findings suggest magma in the Martian mantle is still active.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, scientists have argued that \u2013 similar to those on Earth \u2013 the quakes are the result of powerful Martian tectonic forces.<\/p>\n<p>The repetitive nature of these quakes and the fact they were all detected in the same area suggest that Mars is more seismically active than scientists previously thought.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe found that these marsquakes repeatedly occurred at all times of the Martian day,\u201d said ANU scientist and study co-author Professor Hrvoje Tkal\u010di\u0107.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhereas marsquakes detected and reported by NASA in the past

mantle is the trigger for these 47 newly detected marsquakes beneath the Cerberus Fossae region.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added that the conclusion is that Mars is still volcanicly active, contrary to the belief of some scientists.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\"

crucial to our understanding of how Mars evolved as a planet,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt can help us answer fundamental questions about the solar system and the state of Mars\u2019 core, mantle and the evolution of its currently-lacking magnetic field.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Scientists have long known that, billions of years ago, Mars had active volcanoes and vast intertwining rivers and lakes.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s part of the reason many believe that microscopic life may have once lived on the once-fertile grounds of Earth\u2019s mysterious neighbor.<\/p>\n<p>Rapid changes to the planet\u2019s atmosphere led its surface to become the barren, dusty wasteland that it is today.<\/p>\n<p>Some experts believe, however, that the old girl isn\u2019t out of action just yet.<\/p>\n<p>They have bickered for decades over whether Martian volcanoes are still active or just as dead as the rest of the planet.<\/p>\n<p>If there is indeed magma active under the planet\u2019s surface, the chances of life growing there are far higher.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because microbes need a mix of heat, water and nutrients to survive. Moving, hot magma would provide one of those key ingredients.<\/p>\n<p><em>This story originally appeared <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.the-sun.com\/tech\/5055422\/mars-mysterious-rumbling-noise-never-heard-sign-life\/\">on The Sun<\/a> and was reproduced here with permission.<\/em>\n                        <\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
