What is creating unusual plumes on Mars? No one is sure. Noted and confirmed by a global contingent of amateur astronomers on photos of the red planet in March 2012, possibly similar plumes have now been found on archived images as far back as 1997. Since the plumes reach 200 kilometers up, they seem too high to be related to wind-blown surface dust. Since one plume lasted for eleven days, it seemed too long lasting to be related to aurora. Amateur astronomers will surely continue to monitor the terminator and edge regions of Mars for new high plumes, and the armada of satellites orbiting Mars may be called upon to verify and study any newly reported plume that become visible. The featured 35-minute time-lapse animation was taken on 2012 March 20 by the plume’s discoverer — an attorney from Pennsylvania, USA. Poll: What do you think these unusual Martian plumes are?

🌌 在2012年3月,一群業餘天文學家注意到火星上出現了不尋常的煙霧柱,並確認了這個現象。這些煙霧柱的高度可達200公里,似乎無法以風吹拂的表面灰塵解釋。更奇怪的是,某些煙霧柱持續了長達十一天,顯示出它們的持久性,使得無法用極光現象來解釋。業餘天文學家將繼續監測火星的邊緣地區,而環繞火星的多個衛星也可能會被呼叫來驗證和研究新的煙霧柱。你對這些不尋常的火星煙霧柱有何看法?
