John E. Brandenburg He is a famous scientist, linked to Harvard, who in 2011 published a theory that went viral: he claimed that a Thermonuclear war He ended the life of the red planet. Recently, this scientific hypothesis has once again had notoriety after Brandenburg's visit in a popular online program with a lot of audience and followers.
This scientist stressed, as he did in his theory published in 2011, the distribution of Xenón-129 in the Martian atmosphere. According to the aforementioned researcher, the remains of chemical elements that were discovered in Marte They present an isotapic firm almost identical to that of nuclear tests carried out on the planet Earth. According to Brandenburg, the concentration of this isotope in the atmosphere exterminated a developed and technologically advanced civilization on the red planet.
All of that would be a consequence of a massive thermonuclear event. Brandenburg defends that the presence of Xenón-129 cannot be explained by Natural processes. Jason Reza Jorjani supported this aforementioned theory: “When a thermonuclear bomb is stopped, leave a mark of Xenon-129 that is unmistakable and typical of that type of explosion,” said Jorjani.

The scientific community rejects this theory
Although there are scientists who support Brandenburg's interpretation, most researchers do not accept this hypothesis. For example, experts from the NASA They argued that the anomalies observed in some Martian regions could be due to the land morphology or even For the impact of meteoritesnot because of explosions caused by a nuclear war.
