Oxford UK (SPX) Oct 18, 2023 - A global team of scientists have announced the results of an unprecedented collaboration to search for the source of the largest ever seismic event recorded on Mars. The study, led by the University
The rumbling detected by NASA's InSight Mars rover had a magnitude of 4.7 and has now been determined to be the largest "marsquake" ever recorded.
Images from each and every spacecraft now orbiting Mars have ruled out a meteorite strike as the cause of a 4.7-magnitude marsquake, the strongest temblor ever detected beyond Earth
