Mars, magma and Olympus Mons
The largest volcano on Mars may sit above a 1,000-mile magma pool. Could Olympus Mons erupt again?
A low-density, weak-gravity region has been found below Olympus Mons and the Tharsis volcanoes, while Mars' northern hemisphere is littered with puzzling high-gravity structures beneath the surface.
Mars' tallest volcano can awake after years; massive plume of magma rising beneath the surface
A rising plume of magma under Mars’ Tharsis volcanic region could one day trigger a colossal eruption. This new discovery offers insight into Mars’ geological activity, suggesting that the planet may still have active movements beneath its surface.
