65.438+0.8 billion pixel panoramic photo exposure of Mars. Why is the surface of Mars desolate?

Recently, NASA officially displayed a picture by? Curiosity? The 654.38+0.8 billion pixel panorama of Mars taken by the rover shows that the surface of Mars is desolate. Why is this?

Mars is one of the eight planets in the solar system, more than 55 million kilometers away from the earth. Compared with the earth, the geological activity of Mars is inactive, and most of the surface landforms were formed in ancient times, so there are many craters, volcanoes and canyons on Mars, which looks very desolate. In addition, the atmosphere of Mars is dominated by carbon dioxide, and sandstorms often occur every year. Therefore, the desolate surface of Mars has a lot to do with its atmospheric environment.

In the past, we could only observe Mars through a telescope. With the continuous progress of science and technology and the continuous development of space technology, humans can observe and inspect Mars at close range by launching Mars probes, and the true face of Mars is constantly being recognized. This1.800 million pixel panoramic photo of Mars was synthesized from more than 1.0000 photos taken by Curiosity from October 24th to February 24th last year. It took the researchers several months to carefully synthesize these images into a panoramic view with a resolution of 65.438+0.8 billion pixels, which made the surface of Mars unobstructed, shocking and amazing, and also made people admire the advanced technology of the United States in the field of space exploration.

It is even more curious to see the potholes on the surface of Mars, which are even similar to those on the earth, and scientists have confirmed that there is liquid water on the surface of Mars. Can humans really immigrate to Mars in the future?

After the photo was released, it caused many netizens to discuss it. How big is the universe? How small is the earth? In this world, there are too many unknowns waiting for us to explore and discover. I believe that with the continuous development and progress of space technology, there will be a greater breakthrough in human understanding of Mars and a deeper understanding of outer space.
