Researchers have recently discovered the answer to how the caves found on Mars were created. Researchers have determined that those caves were created by volcanoes and meteors.

Meteorites could have caused these caves because on impact they would fracture and melt existing ice.These caves are still thought to offer an attractive habitat for Martian life because it offers protection.
