Georgia Tech researchers have determined that a prominent mountain along Jezero Crater's rim is likely a volcano, offering fresh insight into Martian geology and potentially its habitability. Named Jezero Mons, the mountain spans nearly half the width of the crater and may help refine the planet's geologic timeline through sample dating.
The findings appear in the journal Communications Ea
