麻省理工学院的研究人员提议 火星消失的大气层 可能储存在粘土丰富的地壳中 含有高达80%的原始大气 MIT researchers propose that Mars' missing atmosphere may be stored in clay-rich crust, containing up to 80% of its original atmosphere.
麻省理工学院的研究人员提议 火星失踪的大气层 可能储存在其粘土丰富的地壳中 MIT researchers propose that Mars' missing atmosphere may be stored in its clay-rich crust. 他们认为,35亿年前,水与富铁岩石发生反应,将大气中的二氧化碳转化为甲烷,而甲烷则被困在粘土矿物中。 They suggest that, 3.5 billion years ago, water reacting with iron-rich rocks converted atmospheric carbon dioxide into methane, which was then trapped in clay minerals. 他们的调查结果表明,这种粘土可以支撑1.7巴二氧化碳,约占火星原大气层的80%,甲烷可以作为未来火星飞行任务的燃料来源。 Their findings indicate that this clay could hold up to 1.7 bar of carbon dioxide, roughly 80% of Mars' original atmosphere, and the methane could serve as a fuel source for future Mars missions.
