Blocks of frozen carbon dioxide sliding down Martian dunes may have carved the planet’s strange gullies, mimicking the work ...
The method, developed by researchers at the State University of Campinas in Brazil, uses images of dune surfaces to estimate ...
Massive volcanic eruptions billions of years ago may have made it snow on Mars, leaving thick buried ice near the planet’s equator.
The recent detection of potential signs of ancient microbial life on Mars by NASA’s Perseverance rover has sparked renewed ...
"In spring, this ice begins to warm up and sublimate. The last remnants of this ice are located on the shaded side of the dune tops, and that is where the blocks break off from once the temperature is ...
Scientists simulated the conditions of Mars in a lab to observe how blocks of carbon dioxide "dug" their way through the ...
New study shows Mars went through shrinking ice ages, revealing how it lost water and where future missions might find what's left.
The research described in this paper gives proof of the assumption, previously made by other researchers, that blocks of CO2 ice can play a role in the creation of dune gullies on Martian dunes.
Was Mars a friendly planet for water, even life, in its ancient past? Huge channel networks run across its surface. Rocks show signs of water immersion. Yet pictures sent back from NASA's Curiosity ...
UTAH, USA — Students at the University of Colorado spent spring break on Mars, or at least the closest thing we have to Mars here on Earth. "I went to Mars. That’s what I’ve been telling everyone," ...
Scheduled to open in 2029, the Mars-V camp in Mongolia is a space simulation center that allows participants to experience ...
