Could 火星 someday look like Saturn? 破片 from the red 惑星's moons may be creating RINGS

  • 火星' moons Phobos and Deimos are 存在 torn apart by its gravitational pull
  • In millions of years the red 惑星 could have （犯罪の）一味s that 似ている Saturn's?
  • 研究員s 観察するd the dust 粒子s 軌道ing 93 miles - 620 miles (150 - 1000km) from the 惑星

火星 is ripping its two moons apart and the destructive 軍隊s are 原因（となる）ing a Saturn-style （犯罪の）一味 to appear around the red 惑星, によれば scientists.

衛星 data shows that dust from?Phobos and Deimos is already encircling 火星.

In a few million years??Phobos - and perhaps Deimos too - could be 完全に destroyed by their parent 惑星.?

Data from the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) satellite suggests that Phobos (pictured) is already being destroyed by its parent planet.?In a few million years Phobos - and perhaps Deimos too - could be completely destroyed by their parent planet

Data from the 火星 Atmosphere and Volatile 進化 (MAVEN) 衛星 示唆するs that Phobos (pictured) is already 存在 destroyed by its parent 惑星.?In a few million years Phobos - and perhaps Deimos too - could be 完全に destroyed by thei r parent 惑星

The data comes from the?火星 Atmosphere and Volatile 進化 (MAVEN) 衛星, which arrived at 火星 in 2013.

Jayesh Pabari of the Physical 研究 研究室／実験室 in Ahmedabad, India, and his 同僚s believe that although most of the dust cloud is interplanetary, about 0.6 per cent is coming from Phobos and Deimos, によれば New Scientist.?

They team 観察するd the dust 粒子s 軌道ing at between 93 miles - 620 miles (150 - 1000km) from the red 惑星. ?

His team looked at MAVEN dust 測定s and have analysed how many meteoroids have 攻撃する，衝突する 火星 and its moons.?

Smaller 粒子s from meteoroid strikes are 普通は swept away by solar 勝利，勝つd.?

However, dust from these （犯罪の）一味s is able to get to 火星' upper atmosphere, which 示唆するs that some of it is coming from Phobos and Deimos.?

Grooves on the surface of Mars’ largest moon (pictured) suggest it is being destroyed by its parent planet. They were first spotted in the 1970s, but new analysis shows the grooves match up with regions being put under stress

Phobos (pictured)?is composed of weak materials, which makes its disintegration almost inevitable.?Unlike our moon, Mars' main satellite is moving closer and closer to its parent planet, which is pulling it down

Phobos (pictured)?is composed of weak 構成要素s, which makes its disintegration almost 必然的な.?Unlike our moon, 火星' main 衛星 is moving closer and closer to its parent 惑星, which is pulling it 負かす／撃墜する

'The bigger （犯罪の）一味 粒子s can reach 火星 over a period of time, in 新規加入 to the interplanetary dust 粒子s', wrote Dr Pabari.?

'The dust shedding 予定 to meteoroid 衝撃s would continue even as 火星’s gravity pulls Phobos (pictured above) inward during the next 20 to 70 million years and starts to break it apart. That means there will be いっそう少なく of Phobos left when it finally 崩壊（する）s', wrote New Scientist.??

Unlike our moon, 火星' main 衛星 is moving closer and closer to its parent 惑星, which is inexorably pulling it 負かす／撃墜する.?

This gravitational tide is 開始 grooves on Phobos' surface which can 手段 328 to 656 feet (100 to 200 metres) wide and 33 to 98 feet (10 to 30 metres) tall.

Phobos is?composed of weak 構成要素s, which makes its disintegration almost 必然的な.?

The 過程 is 類似の to the way Saturn's （犯罪の）一味s are thought to have come together.?

Saturn's rings, shown in the image above, are made up of particles of varying size. The different colours in the image above represent different particle size with green being the smallest. Researchers have found the distribution of ice and rock through Saturn's rings is a result of how the particles have collided and separated

Saturn's （犯罪の）一味s, shown in the image above, are made up of 粒子s of 変化させるing size. The different colours in the image above 代表する different 粒子 size with green 存在 the smallest. 研究員s have 設立する the 配当 of ice and 激しく揺する through Saturn's （犯罪の）一味s is a result of how the 粒子s have 衝突する／食い違うd and separated

In 2015, mathematicians analysed the neat 配当 of 粒子s of ice and 激しく揺する throughout Saturn's （犯罪の）一味s and said they are characteristic of '壊滅的な 衝突／不一致s over time.'

The scientists believe the large 粒子s appear to have 衝突する／食い違うd at slow 速度(を上げる）s, and in turn 誘発する／引き起こすd smaller 粒子s to 衝突する／食い違う at higher 速度(を上げる）s.

This results in a cycle of aggregation and fragmentation until a 安定した 明言する／公表する is reached.

At the time the 研究員s said this can also explain the 形式 of （犯罪の）一味s around 惑星s like Uranus, Jupiter and Neptune, along with distant asteroids Chiron and Chariklo.?

THE MARKINGS OF PHOBOS?

Phobos is the larger and closer of 火星' two moons, the other 存在 Deimos.

They were both discovered in 1877.

Irregularly-形態／調整d Phobos has an 普通の／平均（する） 半径 of seven miles (11km) and is seven times larger than Deimos.

Phobos is 3,700 miles (6,000km) from 火星 and has the closest 軌道 of any known planetary moon.

It is so の近くに that it 軌道s 火星 faster than 火星 回転／交替s, and 完全にするs an 軌道 in just 7 hours and 39 minutes.

予定 to 潮の interactions, Phobos is 製図／抽選 closer to 火星 by one metre every century, and it is 予報するd that in 50 million years it will 衝突する／食い違う with the 惑星 or break up into a planetary （犯罪の）一味.

It was thought that mysterious grooves on the moon were 場内取引員／株価s as the result of an 衝撃, but nor scientists say they are the first 調印する the rocky 団体／死体 is under 強調する／ストレス.?
