Dark “slope streaks,” likely resulting from dust avalanches, stretch across an area of Mars called Acheron Fossae in this ...

Recent gravity studies of Mars have uncovered large, dense structures hidden beneath the planet's surface, offering new insights into the geological activity that may still be occurring on the Red ...

Gravity on Mars Like all bodies in the universe, the Earth has a gravitational pull. But this pull isn’t constant across our planet’s surface. For starters, the Earth isn’t a perfect sphere ...

Looks like Mars might have had more water than anyone previously imagined.

Gravity map of Mars. The red circles show prominent volcanoes on Mars and the black circles show impact crates with a diameter larger than a few 100 km. A gravity high signal is located in ...

If you've ever looked at Mars through a telescope, you probably noticed its two polar ice caps. The northern one is made largely of water ice—the most obvious sign that Mars was once a wetter ...

In the past, glaciers may have existed on the surface of Mars, providing meltwater during the summer to create the features we see today.

In “A City on Mars,” Kelly and Zach Weinersmith investigate what life would be like for humans on the red planet, arguing that Elon Musk’s dream is doomed to fail.

Wave-like landforms on Mars provide clues about the planet’s icy history, its potential to support life, and the behavior of ...

The hidden Mars structures are mysterious because they appear to be significantly denser than their surroundings.

However, a new study published August 9 in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences suggests that there may be liquid water on Mars today—or, more accurately, in Mars.
