Marsquake Waves Are Moving Faster Than They Should and It’s Not Clear Why. Story by Mihai Andrei • 6d. I n 2021 and 2022, ...

Otherwise known as S1222a, this marsquake was assumed to have been caused by a meteoroid impact, so an international team of researchers immediately began searching for evidence of a fresh crater.

The surface of Mars appears to have been shaken by quakes relatively recently, hinting at the existence of active volcanoes and perhaps reservoirs of liquid water on the Red Planet, a new study ...

New research published in Geophysical Research Letters suggests that InSight captured the biggest marsquake ever recorded earlier this year. The paper, which studies the discovery in-depth, was ...

A giant seismic event on Mars—a “marsquake”—that shook the Red Planet last year had an unexpected source, surprising astrophysicists from around the world. They suspected a meteorite ...

Our marsquake evidence for a temperature difference across the dichotomy is consistent with these models. To conclusively answer the question of what caused the Martian dichotomy, ...

An estimated magnitude 5 marsquake occurred on May 4, 2022, the latest in a total—so far—of 1,313 quakes detected by the mission. Until this latest damaging the storm, ...

The strongest recorded Marsquake, which rattled for six hours in May 2022, left no visible traces on the Red Planet surface. Now, scientists think they know what caused it.

NASA’s InSight has detected the strongest and longest quake on Mars so far. The event was five times more powerful than any previous marsquake, unleashing as much energy as all others combined.

Record Biggest Marsquake Wasn't Caused by an Asteroid After All. After failing to find a crater that would explain the quake, scientists now believe its origin lies inside the planet.

The researchers now believe that pent-up stress within the crust was released in May 2022, causing the record marsquake. S1222a (top) looks similar to impact-linked seismic events, ...
