Mysterious Features on the planet Mars..!?

Changes in the universe reverberate in the lives of human beings. That is why the discoveries of astronomers are always given more importance. Recently, the european Space Agency's (ESA) Mars Express has spotted some remarkable mysterious features in the south polar region of the red planet Mars. The reasons for the increasing number of mysterious landscapes on Mars are unknown. However, discussions and suggestions regarding it have increased.

In the Australe Scopuli region of Mars, mysterious terrains surrounded by dark regions rather than icy regions have been discovered. Terrains surrounded by areas darker than ice are labeled as 'hidden terrain'. As spring approaches, ice rapidly changes from solid to vapor. Due to this natural phenomenon, a significant amount of gas escapes from the thin atmosphere of Mars. This phenomenon of condensing, increasing surface area, reverses in autumn. These alternating activities create mysterious landscapes. An accretionary surface has only been detected in the austral scopuli, an observation captured by the High-Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) on board Mars Express during spring in the southern hemisphere of Mars.The austral scopuli consist of layered fossils of ice, filled with varying amounts of dust beneath the smooth surface of polar layer deposits. At the center of this region lies the cryptic landscape, which is dark compared to the rest of the ice sheet. It is also worth noting that where the photograph was taken, the dark central stage was covered with a variety of polygonal shapes of varying sizes. Meanwhile, Martian frost also appears to have polygonal edges, a pattern found in Earth's Arctic and Antarctic regions.

It is noteworthy that such patterns usually indicate frozen water ice on land, and bright and dark fan-shaped deposits appear downwind. If, in early spring, sunlight penetrates the ice sheet and warms its base, a jet of gas bursts through the surface, and dark dust settles down from below.
