The video discusses the surprising presence of hydrogen in Earth's core, suggesting it could account for a significant portion of non-iron elements there. This hydrogen likely originated from water molecules on early Earth. Additionally, a new volcanic site on Mars, potentially active as recently as 50,000 years ago, has been discovered. This site, located in Elysium Planicia, shows explosive characteristics unlike typical Martian volcanoes. The findings could have implications for understanding both Earth's and Mars' geological history.
