Because oxygen-bearing sulfate minerals trap and preserve signals from Earth's atmosphere, scientists closely study how they form. Sulfates are stable over billions of years, so their oxygen isotopes ...
The warmest parts of Mars host a strange, thick layer of ice beneath the surface, and we may have finally figured out how it got there. It might have been shifted from the inside of the planet by ...
Chris Pratt has left his mark as one of the biggest action stars in the world thanks to his roles in Guardians of the Galaxy and The Terminal List, but nearly 10 years ago, he starred in a space ...
Mars may look calm, but new research reveals it’s a world of fierce winds and swirling dust devils racing at hurricane-like speeds. Using deep learning on thousands of satellite images from European ...
WASHINGTON, Oct 8 (Reuters) - Two decades of observations by a pair of orbiting spacecraft have enabled scientists to track the whirlwinds called "dust devils" that regularly pirouette across the ...
Scientists leveraged what was previously considered "digital noise"—color offsets caused by moving objects in images from ESA's Mars Express and ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter—to catalog 1,039 martian dust ...
Twenty years’ worth of imagery captured by two orbiters circling Mars has revealed raging winds on the red planet. Wind on the barren planet would be invisible if it weren’t for Mars’ iconic red dust, ...
Martian colonies are a ubiquitous sci-fi image, but the reality of making one actually happen is complicated. It would be ludicrously expensive and extraordinarily dangerous. The logistical headaches ...
Since humans first started observing Mars, the existence of nocturnal ice clouds on the Red Planet has been known, primarily through daytime observations and sophisticated climate models. Twilight ...
