Life on Mars? Check Out NASA’s Most Convincing Evidence Yet
Mars’ Waffle-Like Island
In 2014, the Reconnaissance Orbiter captured a fascinating photo of an island in the Athabasca region of Mars. This unusual circular formation, nearly 1.2 miles wide, piqued the curiosity of scientists. The Athabasca region is known for its relatively recent lava flows, and NASA experts speculated that lava moving beneath the surface could have pushed this hill upward.
The distinctive shape of this island stands out in its striking resemblance to a waffle pastry. Notice its grid-like pattern and rounded edges? This curious formation on the Martian surface intrigues researchers, as they can only speculate about the geological activity that shaped it.
