Astronomy / Space Mars probe InSight detects possible 'marsquake', NASA says, in interplanetary first

[Manticore]

The first likely seismological tremor recorded on another planet has been detected and measured by a NASA probe on Mars.

The breakthrough came after InSight, the first spacecraft designed specifically to study the deep interior of a distant world, touched down on the surface of the Red Planet to begin a two-year investigation of its interior structure.

Something just happened on Mars that has created a new branch of science

Magnificent ! We can detect the marsquakes very far from the earth but on the earth we have difficulties to prevent this kind of event to avoid the disasters.

When will we be really concerned about global warming on Mars ?
