Oct 19, 2016New global images of Mars from the MAVEN mission show the ultraviolet glow from the Martian atmosphere in unprecedented detail, revealing dynamic, previously invisible behavior. -
Oct 17, 2016This jumble of eroded blocks lies along the distinctive boundary between the Red Planet’s southern highlands and the northern lowlands, with remnants of ancient glaciers flowing around them. -
Oct 16, 2016A new model of canyon-forming floods suggests that deep canyons can be formed in bedrock by significantly less water than previously thought. -
Oct 14, 2016For the first time, physicists have demonstrated how an asteroid or comet impact could have created Stickney crater without destroying Phobos completely. -
Oct 7, 2016Global dust storms on Mars could soon become more predictable -- which would be a boon for future astronauts there -- if the next one follows a pattern suggested by those in the past. -
Oct 4, 2016Miniaturized scope has power to image tiny samples and find chemical make-up. -
Sep 30, 2016NASA's Curiosity rover has found evidence that chemistry in the surface material on Mars contributed dynamically to the makeup of its atmosphere over time. -
Sep 28, 2016A new study shows that rocks formed by the grinding together of other rocks during earthquakes are rich in trapped hydrogen — a finding that suggests similar seismic activity on Mars may produce enough hydrogen to support life. -
Sep 18, 2016Lakes and snowmelt-fed streams on Mars formed much later than previously thought possible, according to new findings. -
