Is it true that Mars has active geological processes today?
Partly. Peer-reviewed work indicates Martian surface and weathering processes may be active today, and present-day small impacts are documented, while a forum answer asserts Mars currently has very little geological activity. The sources only partially address whether Mars is geologically active today, and they disagree.
