According to a new study, Mars is emerging from a 400,000-year thaw. The recent research may also give NASA scientists more information about the Red Planet. Information scientists can possibly use to understand Earth’s changing climate better. The Mars ice age ended roughly 400,000 years ago, yet the planet is still pretty frosty. Scientists believe that the massive amount of ice that once accumulated around the Martian poles could be the reason. The study’s findings noted that if all that ice was spread over Mars, the planet would be covered in an ice layer two feet thick.
Mars Similar to Earth
The recent study published in the journal Science has discovered that Mars underwent multiple ice ages. The most recent ice age ended around 400,000
