The northern hemisphere of Mars ended its four-season year on November 12, 2024 , ushering in a new spring.
Because the Martian atmosphere is so dilute, frozen water and carbon dioxide on the planet’s surface change directly from solid to gas as temperatures rise.
The best time to see these dark, fan-shaped geysers will be around December 2025 , when spring arrives in the southern hemisphere.
The diameter of the Martian northern polar ice cap is 1,000 kilometers , which is roughly the size of Texas .
