Audio from a Martian dust devil captured for the first time
Scientists estimate the recorded whirlwind measured about 82 feet wide by 387 feet high. As you can hear below , the clip includes a brief pause in the turbulence as the dust devil’s eye passes over the rover.Perseverance also captured images of the approaching storm. Scientists had to coordinate their instruments to boost the odds of recording a storm. The rover only records sound snippets lasting under three minutes and only does so eight times per month.
“I can’t think of a previous case where so much data from so many instruments contributed to characterizing a single dust devil,” said John Edward Moores, a planetary scientist at York University. “Had the [camera] been pointing in a different direction or the microphone observation been scheduled just a few seconds later, key pieces of the story would be missing.
