The interior and thermo-chemical evolution of Mars — •Ana-Catalina Plesa and Doris Breuer — DLR, Institute of Planetary Research, Germany

The observational data currently available about Mars provide us with the opportunity to study the interior and thermochemical evolution of the planet with unprecedented detail. This includes geological and mineralogical datasets, gravity and topography data, magnetic field data, and most recently, seismic data from the InSight mission. In this talk, we will show what we have already learned about the interior and thermochemical evolution of Mars, and where there are still open (new) questions - especially through the analysis of the new data from InSight - for the geodynamic reconstruction of the Martian interior.
