Amazing how common volcanoes are on other planets lacking plate tectonics.
Someone needs to inform Astronomy magazine that Venus is closer to Earth than Mars.
What about the volcanoes on Jupiter and Saturn?
William Herschel reported observing eruptions on the Moon at least three times in the 1780s. And during the Apollo missions astronauts saw patches of material that could have been volcanic in origin and fairly recently so.
Russians fault!
Can’t be. The science is settled. Clearly, human activity is causing the heat rise from those holes in the ground, everywhere in the universe.
1. As our solar system coalesced from gaseous form into condensed matter due to gravity, the pressure from those over-heated molecules born our planets in a semi-solid state. Learned that in 3rd grade;
2. Because the universe is absolute cold, it caused said molecules to further solidify on the outside and build crusts. More grade school
3. So...those cooling objects still have internal heat/pressure from gravity pulling them together, and experience eruptions from that pressure. I'm so surprised!
4. Did these scientists just discover internal cores with associated heat and pressure of these space objects?
Can't wait till they discover the Sun has a bigger influence on Earthly climate than human expulsion of CO2 gases. What a geo-political planetary finding that will be!
1. John's eruption from the outer limits;
2. Jane's eruption from the inner limits;
3. Harold's eruption from everywhere being a horndog;
4. George Takei's eruption because he's a perve from planet Mars.
Here's my white board equation: E=OGsquared. Education=OverthoughtGrant times squared.

From whence did they draw the assumption that the meteorites in question originated on Mars? Sounds more like an educated guess than scientific evidence. And how did they determine the age?
