The ocean floor is famously less explored than the surface of Mars. And when our team of scientists recently mapped the seabed, and ancient sediments beneath, we discovered what looks like an asteroid impact crater.
Intriguingly, the crater, named "Nadir" after the nearby volcano Nadir Seamount, is of the same age as the Chicxulub impact caused by a huge asteroid at the end of the Cretaceous period, around 66 million years ago, which wiped out the dinosaurs and many other species.

Were Phobos and Deimos Once a Single Martian Moon That Split up?
The origin of Phobos and Deimos , the two Martian moons, has been a mystery to astronomers. These two bodies are a fraction of the size and mass of the Moon , measuring just 22.7 km (14 mi) and 12.6 km (7.83 mi) in diameter.
There’s also the theory that Phobos and Deimos were once a single moon hit by a massive object, causing it to split up (aka. the “splitting hypothesis”).
