A study by a group of scientists reveals that planet Mars has massive dust storms that tend to happen in the summer months on the planet which explains the loss of water on earth, American space agency, NASA reports.
Scientists around the globe are still analyzing reams of data, but preliminary reports include insights on how the massive dust storms could have affected ancient Martian water, winds, and climate, and how they could affect future weather and solar power.
“We still don’t know what drives the variability, but the 2018 storm gives another data point,” says Scott Guzewich, an atmospheric scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, who’s a lead in NASA’s dust storm investigation.
Reports say the dust storms can last for weeks and cover areas of the planet as large as the United States.
These dust storms pose a significant threat to equipment on the Red Planet and any potential future manned mission.
