A huge volcano hiding in plain sight on MARS?! A beautiful aspect of being a geologist/geoscientist is that our knowledge from Earth can be applied to other terrestrial planets like Mars. River morphologies on Mars look A LOT like those on Earth…
In this video, we dive into a recent study suggesting the presence of a previously undocumented giant volcano on Mars. I share some terrain models from the red planet and go on a few tangents regarding possible origins of the Tharsis Rise, Tharsis Montes, and the almighty Olympus Mons. Huge shoutout to Dr. An Yin - a big inspiration of mine since I first became interested in Earth and planetary sciences. I hope you find it interesting and learn something valuable.
