Mars's oddest cloud may be even stranger than thought
Original: Mars's oddest cloud may be even odder than we thought
The European Space Agency's Mars Express mission has reported new findings on the long, snake-like cloud that repeatedly forms over the Arsia Mons volcano on Mars. The elongated cloud, which can stretch for over a thousand kilometres at dawn, appears to behave in ways scientists had not previously modelled, prompting fresh analysis of how Martian topography and atmospheric winds drive the phenomenon.
Why now: The ESA has published new research revising what scientists know about a long-puzzling Martian cloud formation.
