Explanation:

The passage starts by saying that scientists once thought Mars' weather was calm, but recent studies show otherwise. It then describes "Martian dust devils" (swirling dust storms), strong winds moving sand dunes, and enormous cyclones. These details imply that Mars has stormy weather. The first option is incorrect as the passage contradicts the idea of calm weather. The second and third options are just specific details, not the main idea. The main idea is about the overall weather situation (stormy) on Mars.

Answer:

Stormy weather can be found on Mars.
