Due to extreme temperatures and the dryness of Mars, it's thought to be impossible for liquid water to form on the planet's surface, a critical precondition for habitability. The only hope of finding ...

There might’ve been life on Mars after all. Although it resembles a coral typically found at the bottom of the ocean, it was ...

In 2024, NASA announced that its Perseverance rover had discovered the first 'possible' signs of ancient life on the Red ...

Last year, NASA’s Insight lander discovered reservoirs of liquid water ten kilometers deep inside the Martian crust. But never before have we seen that surface liquid water once existed on Mars.

Scientists identified an iron-rich mineral on the surface of Mars that suggests the planet’s surface may be more dynamic than ...

This new research suggests that there is indeed liquid water buried deep below the surface of the planet. Upon analyzing seismic data from NASA's InSight lander, which landed on Mars in 2018 ...

A recent investigation by researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi suggests that cosmic rays—high-energy particles that travel through ...

Evidence of surface brine remnants have been identified on the dwarf planet Ceres, giving clues that Ceres once, or currently, possesses a liquid water ocean beneath its surface. However, given the ...

A new study from NYU Abu Dhabi has found that high-energy particles from space, known as cosmic rays, could create the energy ...

Without enough liquid water on the surface, a planet's atmosphere can become choked with carbon dioxide, raising temperatures ...

NASA has yet to find liquid water on Mars, but analysis of the soil where the Spirit Rover became stuck last year suggests liquid water flowed through the soil — and fairly recently.
