A strange image of the red planet's surface, resembling a giant tree trunk, was captured by a Mars probe, according to the "Live Science" website. The "Exo Mars" program, a joint mission between the European Space Agency and the Russian Space Agency, studies Mars from above. The "Exo Mars" probe orbits the red planet and collects data about its scattered atmosphere.
An image taken on June 13, 2021, and recently published, shows a striking feature on Mars' surface. The image reveals something that appears to be a giant tree trunk, but it is actually a depression rich in ice. "Live Science" highlighted that the image does not disclose the age of the depression, but its shape could help researchers better understand its structure and what occurred on Mars during its formation. Scientists stated that the only thing they can confirm about the depression for now is that it "is filled with deposits rich in water ice."
