nasa solar wind strips martian atmosphere
Bookmarked 527 weeks ago
mars is a cold and barren desert today but scientists think that in the ancient past it was warm and wet the loss of the early martian atmosphere may have led to this dramatic change and one of the prime suspects is the solar wind unlike earth mars lacks a global magnetic field to deflect the stream of charged particles continuously blowing off the sun instead the solar wind crashes into the mars upper atmosphere and can accelerate ions into space now for the first time nasas maven spacecraft has observed this process in action by measuring the speed and direction of ions escaping from mars this data visualization compares simulations of the solar wind and mars atmospheric escape with new measurements taken by mavento learn more visit http:wwwnasagovmission_pagesmavenmainindexhtmlthis video is public domain and can be downloaded at: http:svsgsfcnasagovgoto4370like our videos subscribe to nasa039s goddard shorts hd podcast:http:svsgsfcnasagovvisitunesf0004_indexhtmlor find nasa goddard space flight center on facebook:http:wwwfacebookcomnasagsfcor find us on twitter:http:twittercomnasagoddard
