Scientists Solve Martian Rock Mystery with a Nuclear Reactor | WION Podcast

Scientists cracked the age-old mystery of Martian meteorites using a nuclear reactor. These meteorites, blasted from Mars to Earth, reveal secrets about the Red Planet's volcanic activity and its biggest volcano, Olympus Mons. Led by Dr. Ben Cohen, researchers from the University of Glasgow and other institutions used a technique called 'argon-argon dating' to determine these rocks are surprisingly young—only a few hundred million years old. They unraveled the puzzle by analyzing argon levels in Martian rocks, shedding light on Mars's geological history and its volcanic past.
This research is a giant leap in understanding Mars and its connection to Earth's solar system. Tune in to learn how this discovery aids future missions like the Perseverance and Curiosity rovers.
