meteoric impactsArs Technica
•88% Informative
Seismological data from NASA ’s InSight lander detected six seismic events on Mars .
These were linked to the same acoustic atmospheric signal that meteorites generate when whizzing through the atmosphere of Mars .
This is also the first time seismic data was used to determine how frequently impact craters are formed.
The study suggests that there are periods where impacts are more or less frequent.
It might be possible to predict when the sky is more likely to be clear of falling space rocks.
Meteorites are not much of a danger to Earth since most burn up in the atmosphere.
Mars has a much thinner atmosphere that more can make it through.
