Астрономы раскрыли удивительную тайну Красной планетыScientists believe that on the surface of Mars are heavy winds.

Exploring images of Mars , discovered the bright stripes at the crater of Santa Fe. The stripes on the photos taken by NASA a few years ago, visible only to infrared radiation.

The researchers suggest that the red planet formed strong tornadoes.

Tornadoes move at a speed of 804 km/hour, destroying everything in its path.

The wind in the picture are depicted as white streaks – scientists say. The cause of such high winds may be the activity of volcanoes on Mars. The processes within the planets cause changes in the surface of Mars and form the tornado-like winds.

The force of the wind affect his image in the picture. According to scientists, the stronger the wind, the brighter its image. The discovery will help more thoroughly explore the surface of Mars. With white streaks can be more precisely establish the age of erosion.

Thus, scientists are going to find out the age of the craters of climate change on the planet and make other scientific discoveries. The mystery remains – why the white stripes are not on the surface of Mars.
