As we travel from Mars’s equator toward the planet’s northern regions, we arrive at Coloe Fossae. This landscape is characterized by long, shallow grooves that cut across an area filled with steep ...

The discovery was made by analysing sounds from the atmosphere of the red planet obtained by the Perseverance rover.

F or the first time, scientists have confirmed that electric discharges, in the form of tiny lightning bolts, are indeed ...

The housing: The buildings surveyed in the report contained more than 3,000 single-room occupancy units in total. These are ...

Scientists have detected what they believe to be lightning on Mars by eavesdropping on the whirling wind recorded by NASA's Perseverance rover.

On Mars, winds constantly stir up whirlwinds of fine dust. It was at the center of two of these dust devils that the SuperCam ...

The presence of electrical activity has implications for surface chemistry, future human exploration and habitability on the ...

A chance discovery by a NASA rover on Mars shows that the red planet has a form of lightning, which researchers had suspected ...

Researcher Valentin Bickel wanted to know just how intense winds can be on the red planet. Using data obtained by the Mars camera CaSSIS (Color and Stereo Surface Imaging System), the ExoMars Trace ...

NASA’s rovers and orbiters take digital photos, send them as radio signals to orbiters, which relay them across space to Earth’s Deep Space Network antennas. The signals are decoded into images, then ...

Dust devils whirling across Mars show that the wind on the planet can reach up to 160 kilometres per hour, according to a new study. Researchers used the European Space Agency’s Mars Expressand ...

A new study with major participation from DLR has found that Martian winds blow at speeds of up to 160 kilometres per hour. The findings help to improve our understanding of the atmospheric dynamics ...
