A space exploration mission of the European Space Agency (ESA) has discovered a vast space on the surface of Mars forming an ice lake in the middle of a vast red desert.
The European "Mars Express" spacecraft, in orbit around the Red Planet since 2003, has depicted a volcanic lake that looks like a volcano crater.
AndThe giant lake is located in the so-called Marsa Koroliev (named after the Soviet space engineer Sergey Korolyov) and is 82 km wide and 2 km deep in the lowlands of the northern hemisphere on Mars , near the polar cap.
According to the European Space Agency, the thickness of the ice reaches the center of the hole at 1.8 km during the seasons. This is due to a phenomenon called "cold trap" in which the air is cooled by ice and creates a heat shield that exacerbates the effect of cold and frozen frozen corollif survival."He said.
Fifteen years after it went into orbit on Mars on December 25, 2003, it remains important The European "March Express" survey continues at Discover the wonders of the red planet. In July 2018, radar detectors detected a large amount of fresh water under the surface of Mars.
