It appears only in the summer months. It does not occur in winter. It happens at the morning, not later. It's ice forming vapour. The crater of that volcano is filled with martian ice, warmed up at local dawn, and with the low pressure of the atmosphere, that ice then vapourises and rises as a cloud. And that's what we're seeing. That's my guess, anyhow.
I was thinking based on the volcano’s height it could be compressing the atmosphere and condensing water vapor into a cloud due to drag
@@sh4d0wm4ch1n3 Maybe. I'm more inclined to think the ice is already there, though. Guess we'll find out eventually :)
Or BBQ 🍖
Never discount the last active geyser with nothing but steam no liquid water like most we have on earth just moist warm air pushing up from one of the last geological hot spots on the planet. we know mars has ice so most likely mars still has abundant water under the ground in aquafers where it could easily be very regular like old faithful. and even conditional on seasonal variations in pressure and temperature.
And more areas of moisture upwind possible ???
I'm *very impressed* that someone was able to repurpose an abandoned camera already in orbit.
YES.

Here is what I'm thinking could be happening. The canyon is in line with that specific volcano, and it probably still has water in it under the soil in the form of ice, and when it warms up it vaporizes, and then the wind carries it to the volcano where it rises up and over it and condenses into visible vapor.
I love the Factorio shirt. That is such a great game.
I remember a time, when I was 6, that there was a very similar cloud formation that looked like 7 whales, that appeared every day for about 7 days, as my brother and I walked home from school. Each day the "whales" were a bit more deformed until the final day when it was more like just seven blob-like clouds.
It was quite fascinating.

We are living in a simulated universe
We are not living in a base reality
It is a thought experiment / exploration that the world as you know it is not really "real". All the information your consciousness receives about the world and existence, all you see, hear, taste, and touch is second hand information , electrical impulses in your nervous system that are interpreted by your brain. There for there is a barrier between you and the "real world" so the real world may just as easily be a artificial one with the electrical impulses fed to you by way of a computer simulation and too your conciseness there would be no difference
Is there anything in your experience that can guarantee you that you are not a conscious object in such a simulation? In fact, if programming such a computer is possible, then such simulations will eventually exist. These simulations might be run billions of times over every minute. There may eventually be nearly infinite more of these simulated universes than real universes. That would place the probability of you being born into a real universe at nearly zero while also conveniently explaining why there are strict equations (functions) determining the laws of the universe, why there is one fundamental source of probability, and why everything else seems deterministic.
Time does not exist
I love how the camera of a failed mission is being used for something way beyond its intended use. That's so awesome!
This is hacking. I wish more people understood what hacking actually is.
@@KarstenJohansson could you explain a bit more what you mean?
@@troliskimosko Hacking is when a Martian probe coughs and splutters before uncontrollably smashing into the planet... like the Beagle 🤪🛰️☄️💥.
That webcam felt so unexpectedly alive
@@troliskimosko A lot of people think of Internet crimes when the word "hacker" appears. In the 90's there was a debate over using the term "hacker" and "cracker," realizing that the skillset is similar, but the motive is entirely not. Before then, the word hacker only meant someone who takes a technology and gets it to do something it wasn't expected to be able to do.
When you hear about hacking in the news, it is nearly always about criminals. There are criminal hackers just like there are criminal pedestrians, criminal priests, criminal anything. Criminals insert themselves into any opportunistic place they can. But it doesn't mean "pedestrian" and "priest" you've ever met are bad people. The criminal ones are, though.
That's pretty much the best way I can describe it. Someone else can probably improve on it or word it better.
It’s a Martian holiday still the same for all these years because Martian aliens have incredibly short memory and they can only remember things for 12 hours but there are 2 species so the other half of population is continuing the holiday while first half already forget. And those 39 minutes are when their shift crosses so they only remember to continue what their predecessors were doing. And it’s going like that.
lol !
I really appreciate your no nonsense scientific explanations thanks
To say Mars is geologically inactive is misleading. Perseverance discovered Mars has plate tectonics and marsquakes.
That's his first problem. His depth of knowledge seems to come from the TV.
Well, plate tectonics like what we see here on earth isn't found on Mars. The Martian crust is essentially one giant piece. The mantle below can cause the crust above to bulge upward and crack. That's how the three Tharsis Montes volcanoes and Valles Marineris formed. The quakes happen as the planet cools and shrinks, creating stress in the crust. Most quakes registered on Mars have been in the crust, the rest in the mantle. The biggest being between 3 and 4.
@@bigguy7353 not really but seems you don't have any knowledge or you would know that there is 0 tectonics like on earth. Mars just hasn't a hot core anymore...you can even know that by just watching some TV about it btw...
I thought insight discovered that?
Plate tectonics is a THEORY that has not even been proven on earth. 🙄 scientists are too proideful to just say “we don’t know what’s really going on” so they come up with these outlandish ideas. And people believe them 🤦🏻♂️ don’t believe me, look it up.

Love your haircut and ofc the content. Keep going looking good ;)
Hmm, an orographic cloud was the first guess I had. I'm betting the required moisture is being carried from Valles Marineris by prevailing winds, as that canyon is likely one of the last places on the surface that water existed, along with the higher pressure (there's nearly twice as much atmospheric pressure 7 miles deep in the canyon compared to the rest of the Martian surface). Any time you have higher pressure, the higher the temps generally are and the more water can be held in the air, thus the air can be better saturated...take that same air and cool it and/or lower its pressure, and clouds will form if there's enough moisture. The prevailing winds, which travel directly away from Valles Marineris, are basically taking this air and throwing it up quite a bit higher than Arsia Mons, which is already 12 miles high, add in the 7 mile depth of the canyon and another mile above the peak, you get at least a 20 mile elevation difference between the bottom of the valley and where the cloud is forming. To me that seems like a great recipe for cloud formation. Since there's very little atmospheric water to speak of on Mars, this would naturally make an occurrence such as this very dependent on precise conditions. A slight change in temperature or prevailing wind could throw it completely out of balance and nullify any cloud formation, and that appears to be the case with seasonal changes and daily temperature fluctuations. Just gonna let this comment chill here until the scientific community concurs with my observational theory in a decade or two, in which I'll have time to develop the biggest I told you so in recorded history.
I'm a geologist and can stare at Mars all day. I'd bet that life still exists in the subsurface to this day.
Hi Adam. I agree. Eve.
I agree. I also can't help but wonder, if Mars has been this way for billions of years with sandstorms and wind, why aren't all the rocks smoothe? There should be no jagged rocks, right?
I would like to ask you whether you agree or not with his explanation, because I don't.
@@W.Isarnorix.D 👏you are right! I agree ,my thoughts exactly 🤔
on a sandy radioactive rock without any real atmosphere.....no, most likely not. Radiation doesn't works like in comics.

Fantastic video, great channel, thanks for making this video...✌🏻
I've solved it. During the night time the air current piles up the excess moisture in the bowl uptop the mountain. The excess cooling from the night provided an slight 'cold trap' in which all of the heaver air molecules concertrate. One daylight comes these particles are slowy expanded and create the cloud formation we see.
And what would account for the huge velocity westward? Or are we just gonna ignore that? Martian winds are nowhere near that speed...
You had me at "Mysterious"
Earthly beings know a tremendous amount of information on Mars especially the sizes of volcanoes and the last time they've been erupted is quite humorous to me.
Science
the size of the volcanoes is simple science, the eruption time is merely an educated estimate tho
do you think being closer to the pole causes this seemingly selective cloud streak? would the low-density martian atmosphere play a role in the abnormal expansion/elongation? this is so neat
Came here for your awesome video, commented because I love that you're wearing a FACTORIO shirt!!
The fact that it forms on the trailing edge of the caldera rim really makes me think that the throat of the volcano is somehow allowing a water source further down the throat to evaporate out. As the wind pushes it to the far edge of the caldera it condenses as it rises out of the throat and we get this long tail. That could explain why it's not present with any other volcanoes in the area. Very cool!
@@johnperic6860 yeah and also daily to a specific time
@@johnperic6860 this is true, but it could be explained by the daily/seasonal climate changes on the planet impacting the ice crystals ability to form at all. This only occurs under very specific conditions on our planet where we have tons of moisture in the air. With Mars thin atmosphere and very limited moisture I could see things like sun exposure during the day or atmospheric temp changes between seasons shutting this down. Speculation of course, but it does kind of make sense. I'd love to hear from a meteorologist on this.
i initially started thinking on those lines as well. look at the profile of the calderas of each of those, arsia is shallow and broad compared to the other three. but if you look at the photography shown over time, there is no bright spot in the caldera, so there's no ice there. there would have to be some kind of great lump of spongy rock, retaining water below the surface but allowing it to escape with just direct sunlight, filling the entire bottom of the caldera. and so perhaps the shallowness of it, and the broad opening, is why the sun can heat it at all, and only in one season. enough light doesn't reach over the crater edges of the other three. but, i imagine they already looked at these possibilities and dismissed them.
the less complicated explanation is that the moisture is already in the air, and for some reason that shape can better lift it high into the atmosphere where it condenses. again the shallow/broad shape could easily be found relevant to that, and again the season affects solar inclination which could mean extra height to that lift in the martian summer.
Decades in meteorology and some astronomy tell me you are right on the money. There IS a source of water [frozen, possibly melting to liquid by heating for a very small space of time] here in order for this trail of water-ice clouds to form. By the shadow, we can guess these are not CO-2 clouds. By spectrographic analysis, we KNOW that they are water-ice. It might be noted that the slopes of Arsia Mons show signs of glaciers -- lots of them. They are almost certainly covered by dust, just like they are at Aeolus Mons, but the ice is there, just as it is at the North Pole of Mars. With all of the caverns seen on this incredible mountain, water may be escaping from deeper down, where it is heated.
It is only my opinion, but this would be an intriguing landing site for a small probe.
Incidentally, orographic clouds have been seen near other mountain tops on Mars. And this one was seen before 2018, although it was not well studied.
At the beginning of your video you diss Cydonia's Face Monument as "already solved" but you neglect to mention that it is accompanied by the mysteriously geometric D&M pyramid, the "City" and the Spiral Hill.
An elaborate mathematical relationship between all of these unusual sites in Cydonia. Something major happened there.
more recent era's to observe with the same "lost" to time concept are about 46,000 and 75,000 years ago. We have for instance uncovered writings in Australia that cover many many millennia, along with strip burning the entire continent... possibly causing global warming/change/weather. Our current human history may date back much further than classically assumed.
There's always more to learn everywhere you look.
Unless you're looking to Mars....
The cloud appears to be twisting in the anim, suggesting to me at least that it is related (rooted) to a low pressure point on its leeward side. For example, a leeward side wall collapse would mean that the air compressed running up the windward side is suddenly decompressed, leading to a very low pressure high speed vortex on the back side. Just a thought.
I agree, you see this on the downwind side of tall Rocky Mountain peaks
I was also thinking that it might have something to do with a pressure drop caused by some dynamic of the volcano. But not sure as atmospheric pressure is very low on Mars and this is mainly co2
@@vectravi2008 Honestly, in thinking about this, I even have to question whether or not this is water condensation. Given the high co2 content why couldn't this be a dry ice cloud? All you need us the right press/temp conditions and nucleation sources (plenty of dust here methinks) and viola...
Perhaps add in a "Martian jet stream" to explain why it seems only this one peek is causing this phenomenon..
Hi Anton! Very interesting.
Maybe this is how life is trying to begin on Mars!
Looks like an evaporation cloud. That volcano is high enough that at its summit it likely gets frost at night and the frost evaporates into a cloud when the sun comes up at the air around it heats up
I’m not saying it’s aliens but it’s aliens.
It's NEVER aliens until it is, but that hasn't happened yet).

What do you mean when you say the face on Mars was resolved many years ago? To my mind, Cydonia Mensae remains an enigma. I would cite the compelling work of Dr. Brandenberg and his evidence for a pair of anthropomorphic nuclear detonations on Mars in extreme antiquity, for which Cydonia Mensae appears to have been a target. There are too many anomalies to dismiss to claim that the matter is settled.
If someone had told me 20 years ago that Mars TV with flying drones was going to happen I would have said they were crazies. I’m now a “crazy” watching Mars TV and I cannot wait for the drone footage.

So the volcano is dormant, and this cloud comes out in a patern order, clearly it''s a vent for the aliens living under ground 😁
The ones that happen here on Earth are wimpy by comparison because there are a lot fewer Martians hiding in the mountains here.
Agreed, I thought that was obvious from the beginning of the video.

TRIGGERED
Looks like an off-gassing vent at sunrise heat, condensing against the atmosphere.
The faster speed of expansion is because of the relatively lower atmospheric pressure.
If you put a tied off balloon into a vacuum chamber, it will expand until popping.
I think the slow loss of atmosphere is making pockets under the ground expand.
The heat from the sun causes more expansion...
I heard Mars is also very windy. Would this factor help with the expansion rate?
We are only like 5 years away from high resolution photos and video from Mars satellites. I can’t wait!

Winter light is obscured by cliff edges in the canyon upwind, building up ice deposits. In summer the high angle of the sun warms the canyon basin, with winds sending jet streams of moisture over the specific volcano downwind. The other volcanoes receive wind from sunnier drier plains. This is cool.
Seems like arsia mons has a smoother table top than the other extinct volcanoes. Making for a smooth transition of air up the mountain side , allowing for organized convection rather than chaotic eddies and vortexes dissipating what little moisture there is to organise into clouds.
Considering the inflow of moist air is coming from the Valles Mariners, it seems likely that the summer warming is evaporating H2O in the canyon bed which the wind concentrates towards the end of the canyon allowing it to spill out near enough to the base of the volcano to trigger the atmospheric phenomenon.
Great stuff as always Anton, keep up the good work.
My prediction is that the cloud over Arsia Mons is caused by the broken, cracked crater just to the "right" of it 3:18
I bet there is colder, denser air , perhaps even water vapour, lurking in the huge cracks, and the prevailing winds blow across it before they encounter the slope of the Arsia Mons mountain.
Edit: After further checking, there is a big fissure on the side of Arsia Mons called "Oti Fossae".
"Oti Fossae are paired fractures with a downdropped block [called graben] located on the eastern flank of Arsia Mons."
I was going to offer the same hypothesis but you beat me to it with a far more elegant description.
Bravo good sir.
@@18661873 We will go down in History together, my good man :-)
Or it gathers in the caldera and evaporates in the summer season
@@totally_not_the_fbi_i_promise Do you mean that the "stuff" in the "cracks" accumulates there ?
I don't think that would work, because then it would already be at the height that makes it condense, so it wouldn't.
I would expect it has to start low and warmer in order to condense.
Cracked terrain east of Arsia Mons is not a crater. It's the west end of Valles Marineris - biggest canyon we've found in our Solar System. It also happens to be lowest point on Mars - place where Martian atmosphere is as dense as it can be (which still is very, very thin). So, yes - i think there might be a connection. Maybe westward winds on Mars are blasting through the Valles, get amplified, then blow straight at Arsia Mons blowing away CO2 frost forming on the flanks of the mountain. Similar clouds made of snow crystals carried by strong winds can be observed on Earth - in Himalayas for example.
Thank you for sharing sir new supporters here

wind seems like a challenge... and high altitude... low atmospheric pressure... aero braking is already challenging on mars with the thin atmosphere... but it can probably be done.

maybe start looking in the canyon to the right of the mountain, cold air stays below hot air, then the sun starts to shine on the canyon, it heats the cold air, warmer air raises, it climbs up the canyon walls, the area left to the canyon is also getting warmed by the sun by the time the cold air is warm enough to start rising, as it follows the edge of night/day the sun warms the surface and rotation of Mars adds to its motion, causing a pull toward the volcano, volcano pushes air higher (and volcano is closer to the sun it adds to temperature difference) where it cools again and forms cloud, volume of canyon is fixed, sun hitting area of Mars is fixed (because no atmosphere), causing the duration of the cloud staying the same(not counting seconds or hours here).
My two cents worth (which is currently worth somewhat less than two cents)...
In the summer, the area heats up. That particular volcano is still leaking some water which, when heated, seeps out of the sides as vapor. When it evaporates under just the right conditions, clouds form. The water seepage would explain why just this volcano is producing clouds.
Hello wonderful Anton.
Mars lost it's water at the same time Anton's UA-cam picture was taken.
Damn why you gotta do our boy like that?
Mars never lost its water. The ice is under the dust
@@mccari09 there's clouds...guess I dont kno enough abut clouds...but I thought clouds mean water vapor...so Mars has water right?
@@nwektp could be smoke
@@nervepincher6859 I support Anton on Patreon. Have for years. He still has the oldest picture on UA-cam. Easy and fast to update.
I LOVE your shirt ! Factorio ! 😊🙃
Your smile truly makes a difference
The Martian hotboxed their hidden bases so much that they were forced to air it out.
Red planet. Not, Green planet. But, it is the 4th planet & the clouds are at 20k+ meters. Hmm... Are we being lured by "Marian Red"?
Could be a vent for an an underground colony and they open it when it's warm during the day. 😁

Flatearther, but roundmarser.
@@WanderingWolfe Everyone knows Mars isn't round.. It's a bar!

An observation. On Neptune the Scooter was observed travelling at high speeds. Winds on Neptune reaching 600m/s. This was due to its low energy environment, and so fewer losses due to turbulence. I would suggest the rapidity of the cloud formation and its speed may be down to the same effects.
I'm glad that the Beagle mission produced some useful capability!
If a human colony is ever set up on Mars, it would be cool to put a settlement at the foot of that volcano so every day you could look up and see that cloud. :>
Yeah and experience winds up to 600km 🧐
@@tomaskonkol8894 I think it would be a bit faster
Yeah, if you want to deal with volcanic eruptions and such
@@tomaskonkol8894 But what effect would 600KM winds in a very thin atmosphere actually have?
Think about it. A 60KM/h water current would hit you like a truck if you moved from a still region into it ; but you can go out of your house and stand in 60 KM/h Earth winds with no problems ( just bad hair day ).
Yes and the next thing you know, you would be left as ashes
I see your Factorio merch Anton~ and I love you for it!
Good information bro
The first stop for a sightseeing tour of Mars in 2030? Can't wait!
New Zealand: I'm the land of the long white cloud.
Mars: Hold my beer!
It'd be about the same length actually! 😁
I'm from New Zealand. For perspective, the distance from NZ to Australia (across the Tasman Sea) is roughly 2000km 😊
I so admire your intelligence, dedication, work ethic, and character. Thanks for your time and effort. This one a thing of beauty.
Glad that the gold is doing it's thing! Good job fellas 💯
Thank you Anton
I like your Factorio shirt :)
Awesome shirt I knew he was a fan haha
The factory must grow

@@eeturautavirta493 ok, then can you give me all your simulated money ? It should not matter, right ? Because after all, this is just a simulation. I expect your check soon.
It's the natives sending smoke signals.
They said "Humans go home!"
It’s signal to the Alien Militia that were coming!
when rock start speaking alien
Actually quite interesting... to actually see all the different captures... and actually be able to compare with what happens here on earth. Since Mars' atmosphere is actually quite different, it makes sense that the actual cloud shape / density would actually be & behave quite different.
Thanks Anton look forward to hearing about more information concerning the cloud formation. Other channels speculate about life on Mars being responsible.
Look to you for the truth.
Thanks for sharing this, see you next time.
