10. There seems to be a giant waffle on Mars, but it’s really lava.
While it may seem like Martians are enjoying a tasty breakfast, a waffle appearance on Mars’s surface has been described as an “enigmatic landform” by NASA. This circular pattern measures 1.2 miles wide and is located in the Athabasca region of Mars.
NASA scientists believe that lava is responsible for the waffle-like structure on Mars. They think that lava under the surface came up under the mound, pushing it up. Much ice could have been sitting on the hill elevated by the lava’s heat. Like many other discoveries on Mars, scientists have been trying to find the origins of this structure for several years.
