The core of the Red Planet is not entirely composed of iron and is not very dense, but liquid.

Scientists for the first time managed to find out what the core of the Red Planet consists of and to clarify its size. It helped analyze archival data from the Martian lander InSight, Gizmodo wrote.

For the first time, researchers have detected seismic waves passing through the core of Mars.

The device remained on the Red Planet from 2018 to 2022. He registered more than 1300 marsquakes and recorded the seismic waves coming from them.

Jessica Irving from the University of Bristol, UK, says that the core of Mars is not entirely made of iron and is not very dense, but rather liquid.

“That is, it is not a solid ball of iron, but it consists of a liquid alloy of iron with other chemical elements. It turns out that the core of Mars contains a lot of sulfur and other elements . There is even a small amount. of hydrogen. An analysis of the data obtained showed that about 20 % of the mass of the core of Mars does not consist of heavy, but light chemical elements, such as sulfur and oxygen . It turns out that such a number of elements in The core of the Red Planet is greater than the composition of the core of the Earth, based on this it can explain why Mars was not as rich in life as our planet,” said Irving.
