AI Summary

New data from a European orbiter show gas seeping above volcanic rifts on Mars, indicating the planet is not geologically dead but merely dormant. Fresh fissures observed along the Alba Mons region suggest active subsurface spots where interior gases may be rising toward the surface. The findings imply that Mars retains internal activity despite the lack of recent eruptions.
