[0:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=5) But it used to be blue. Blue planet red.

[0:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=8) Something happened to it. Mars' surface is covered in meteor impacts.

[0:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=13) Mm-hmm. Avi Loeb did the calculations. He says there's four Hiroshima bombs that went off per kilometer squared.

[0:20](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=20) Wow. It'd be enough to decimate all surface records of an ancient Mars civilization.

[0:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=24) I w- I would agree with, I'd say most records, but not all.

[0:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=28) Robert Schoch says there's been solar outbursts.

[0:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=31) Mm-hmm. Okay? Plasma discharge. That giant scar on Mars, that's the product of electrical discharge.

[0:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=36) I tell you, it, it, I found that very compelling.

[0:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=39) It just does not look like a ... except some of our canyons are a little suspect too.

[0:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=44) Right. It, it, it looks like the pattern that's left by an electrical discharge on a metallic plate.

[0:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=49) That United States-sized scar, imagine that. That's an instantaneous excavation of crustal material blown out into space and all over the planet.

[1:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=63) It's no wonder it's got meteor impacts everywhere.

[1:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/zeX4dJDo2fzQ/en/mars-impacts-and-the-electrical-discharge-theory?t=65) It could've been stuff that just rained back down from when it was instantaneously excavated. Okay? That's a bad day.
