NASA’s InSight mission uncovered Mars’ mantle as chaotic and fractured, resembling a Rocky Road brownie rather than a layered planet. Seismic data revealed ancient fragments, some over 4 km wide, preserved by a rigid crust for more than four billion years. The findings offer fresh insights into Mars’ explosive past and the evolution of rocky planets.
