Glazed Mars was reported by American geologists Briony Hogan and Jim Bell from the University of Arizona. In the images transmitted by the Mars Express probe, they made out as if melted dunes. Scientists theorized that the glass covering the dunes was formed by volcanic eruptions. Which, in their opinion, convincingly proves that Mars had a turbulent volcanic past.
As a result, a total of about 10 million square kilometers of surface became glass. Ufologists, of course, have their own view of Martian glass. And first of all, they remember the very popular hypothesis that life on a neighboring planet died as a result of a nuclear war.
They say that numerous explosions of atomic or hydrogen bombs melted the sand of the dunes, literally swept most of the atmosphere into space, and caused soil acidification. In support of their version, anomalous enthusiasts cite finds made during excavations at the end of the 70s of the last century on the territory of present-day Pakistan of the ruins of the ancient Indian city of Mohenjo-Daro, the center of the Harappan civilization.
Archaeologists have discovered vast patches of melted sand that has turned into glass. Like on Mars. Back in 1996, the English researcher David Davenport declared that this glass is the result of nuclear explosions that thundered here 4 thousand years ago.
If you believe the Indian epics, then the gods fought who arrived on aircraft - vimanas. But maybe they were the Martians? First they destroyed their planet. Then they fought to the point that they blew up the neighboring one - Phaeton, in the place of which there are now only fragments - the asteroid belt. And here - on Earth - these "hawks" finally finished off each other?
But, as geologists assure, Martian glass was formed a very long time ago - when there was still a lot of water on the Red Planet. It turns out that the Martian "wars", Phaeton and ancient Indian, very much diverge in time. Not to mention the space.
