Mud flowing on Mars is not like Earth?

According to Australia's ABC Communications Company, the US Aerospace Agency (NASA) in a recent report has revealed that the form of water flowing on Mars is likely not the same as on Earth. is the flow of mud.

Scientists compared sediments on Earth with signs of water activity detected on Mars.

Earlier in 2004 and 2005, photographs taken from the Mars probe of the Global Global Survey Mars showed that on Mars there were signs of liquid and a Cyril Num continent appeared in the south. Mars and Centaur Hill crater. However, photos taken in 2001 do not see this phenomenon.

A recent NASA report has shown that mobile objects on Mars are likely to be mud. To learn more about Mars's surface characteristics, NASA's team of researchers compared them to the bright spots discovered in the Atacama desert in northern Chile.

Results showed that light-colored deposits on Mars were discovered similar to light-colored sediments in the Atacama desert and also the Cyril Num bright spot that was discovered in 2004 and 2005.

The researchers say the deposits on Earth and Mars have very smooth properties and are lighter in color than the surrounding colors. This feature is very similar to sediment in the Atacama desert. Perhaps the Martian sediment is formed by the flow of liquid. This liquid may be a kind of mud formed by a mixture of water and soil, then they follow the slope of the terrain.

The above figures show that this light spot is made up of different large and small grains of sand in the flowing mud process. These grains of sand are more rough than the surrounding area. The researchers said this suggests that the best way to find water on Mars is not to look for differences in sediment composition but to find the large and small differences of sand grains.

Dr. Jonathan Clarke, who collects data on the Atacama Desert, said that a reasonable comparison between the Earth and Mars helps us learn more about Mars's characteristics. The cooler the Mars, the lower the air pressure so the faster the evaporation of water.

Due to the gravitational pull of Mars, so the water flowing on Mars will be very different from the water flowing on Earth. However, the basic physical characteristics of fluid flow will not be highly variable.

NASA's research has yet to detect traces of water so it cannot be said that on Mars there is no water. Jonathan Clarke said that the problem is that on Mars the mud is more water or water than mud.
