Thickness and structure of the Martian crust from InSight seismic data

B Knapmeyer-Endrun, MP Panning, F Bissig, R Joshi… - Science, 2021 - science.org
A planet's crust bears witness to the history of planetary formation and evolution, but for
Mars, no absolute measurement of crustal thickness has been available. Here, we …

Evidence for a liquid silicate layer atop the Martian core

A Khan, D Huang, C Durán, PA Sossi, D Giardini… - Nature, 2023 - nature.com
