   Apr 30, 2024 · Sounds emitted in the cold Martian atmosphere would take slightly longer to get to your ear. With an average surface temperature around -81 F (-63 C), Mars has a lower speed of sound, around 540 mph (~240 meters per second), compared to about 760 mph (~340 meters per second) on Earth. You probably wouldn’t notice up close, but over longer ...

   Mar 24, 2022 · Mars' atmosphere is a lot more tenuous than Earth's, around 0.020 kg/m 3, compared to about 1.2 kg/m 3 for Earth. That alone means that sound would propagate differently on the red planet. But the layer of the atmosphere just above the surface, known as the Planetary Boundary Layer, has added complications: During the day, the warming of the ...

   May 23, 2023 · Did you know sound works differently on Mars than it does on Earth? Mars has a different atmosphere than Earth, so sounds on the Red Planet would sound a bit different and be more muffled. NASA’s Mars Perseverance rover has two microphones that record sounds on the Red Planet. Since its landing in February 2021, the rover has captured sounds such as dust devils, the whir of the Ingenuity ...

   Apr 1, 2022 · On Earth, sound might drop off after about 213 feet (65 meters); on Mars, it falters at just 26 feet (8 meters), with high-pitched sounds being lost completely at that distance. The recordings from SuperCam’s microphone also reveal previously unobserved pressure variations produced by turbulence in the Martian atmosphere as its energy changes at tiny scales.

   Why does Mars sound different than Earth?

   • Mars has a different atmosphere than Earth, so sounds on the Red Planet would sound a bit different and be more muffled. Perseverance has captured sounds such as dust devils, the whir of the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter in flight, and the sound of its wheels crunching over the rocky Martian terrain.

   How fast does sound move through the air on Mars?

   • In contrast, at Earth’s surface, sound moves through the air at only one speed, no matter the pitch. The two speeds on Mars, the researchers say, are because of its carbon dioxide–rich atmosphere.

   Can you hear a sound on Mars?

   • On Mars you’d have to be much closer to the source of a sound to hear it at the same volume as you would on Earth. The atmosphere of Mars, made up of 96 percent carbon dioxide, would absorb a lot of higher-pitched sounds, so only lower-pitched sounds would travel long distances.

   Why do sound waves move faster on Mars than on Earth?

   • Sound waves move more slowly through Mars ' atmosphere than they do on Earth. This makes sense, as the speed of sound depends on a range of factors including the density of the material that the sound waves are traveling through (and, additionally, on some other variables including temperature).

   Why does sound travel slower on Mars?

   • Our planet’s atmosphere is 160 times as dense as the Martian atmosphere, and Earth’s air is mostly nitrogen and oxygen, whereas the Martian air is predominately carbon dioxide. So sound on Mars travels slower in that different air.

   Why does Mars have a high speed of sound?

   • "Due to the unique properties of the carbon dioxide molecules at low pressure, Mars is the only terrestrial-planet atmosphere in the Solar System experiencing a change in speed of sound right in the middle of the audible bandwidth (20 Hertz to 20,000 Hertz)," the researchers write.
