Thin ice may have helped ancient lakes survive on Mars
"Seeing ancient lake basins on Mars without clear evidence of thick, long-lasting ice made me question whether those lakes ...
Small lakes on ancient Mars may have remained liquid for decades, even with average air temperatures well below freezing.
Changes in Mars’ axial tilt (obliquity) drive shifts between polar ice caps at low obliquity and widespread mid-latitude glaciation at high obliquity. These cycles result in ice accumulating inside ...
Until recently, Mars was studied only through telescopes and some data that was recorded from early spacecraft. It was thought that Mars' polar regions were the only significant reservoirs of ice, ...
Changes in Mars’ axial tilt (obliquity) drive shifts between polar ice caps at low obliquity and widespread mid-latitude glaciation at high obliquity. These cycles result in ice accumulating inside ...
Strange grooves, swirling valleys, and hidden ice far from Mars’s poles reveal a surprisingly recent ice age, as new ESA ...
While Mars doesn't directly control Earth's climate, its gravity subtly influences our planet's orbit and tilt over vast timescales. These predictable ...
Mars isn’t just dusty—it crackles with electricity. Scientists discovered that dust devils can generate tiny electric sparks, ...
Mars at sunset reveals dozens of razor-thin atmospheric layers in stunning detail, helping scientists map dust and ice patterns.
U.S. plans to return Mars samples face delays as China advances its own mission. Scientists and policymakers debate costs, timelines, and the role of sample return in future Mars exploration ...
