This new study, led by the University of Oxford, found that the seismic event resulted from the “enormous tectonic forces within Mars’ crust.”On the other hand, a magnitude five quake is comparably violent on Mars, where tectonic activity is considerably less frequent. Mars quakes are generally smaller, typically ranging from 1 to 3.At first, it was postulated that the May seismic event was caused by a meteorite that slammed into the Martian surface.

To validate this hypothesis, the research team enlisted the assistance of orbiters to scan the vast 144 million square kilometers of the Martian surface—this search aimed to identify any new impact craters. “This is thought to be the first time that all missions in orbit around Mars have collaborated on a single project,” stated theAs a result of their investigation, the researchers have concluded that the seismic event was triggered by the release of substantial tectonic forces from within Mars' interior.
