Columnar jointing has been discovered on the surface of what other planet?
The options that are given for this Bing homepage quiz are listed below:
A: Mars
B: Venus
C: Jupiter
The correct answer is Mars.
See The Reason for That answer below:
There is evidence to suggest that Mars was volcanically active in the past, and columnar jointing has been observed on the planet’s surface. In fact, some of the most well-known geological features on Mars are the large shield volcanoes, such as Olympus Mons, which are thought to have formed as a result of repeated volcanic eruptions.
While Astronomers believe there was a volcanic eruption on Mars as recently as 53,000 years ago, there are features on the planet’s surface that suggest relatively recent volcanic activity. For example, there are areas of the planet that appear to be covered in young lava flows, which suggests that volcanism may still be occurring on Mars today, albeit on a much smaller scale than in the past.
The study of Mars’ geological history is ongoing, and new discoveries are being made all the time. As our understanding of the planet’s volcanic activity improves, we may gain new insights into the processes that shape the Martian landscape and the potential for volcanic hazards on the planet.
