Chinese Rover Uncovers Evidence Supporting Theory of a Vast Ancient Ocean on Mars
China’s Zhurong rover has discovered formations on Mars that could signal the remnants of a once vast ocean. Landing in the Utopia Planitia region, the rover identified formations commonly linked to past water presence, supporting the theory that Mars was once home to a massive body of water. While the findings do not offer definitive proof, they...

NASA Curiosity Rover’s Wheels Endure Damage Yet Continue to Operate Effectively on Mars
NASA's Curiosity rover has been traversing Mars for over 12 years, and its wheels have endured significant wear and tear. Recent images reveal extensive damage, including dents and tears, yet the rover continues to function effectively. Since its landing in Gale Crater in 2012, Curiosity has travelled approximately 20 miles (32 kilometres) over rug...

SpaceX Starship Mars Mission Begins in 2026 with Uncrewed Flights, Elon Musk Reveals
SpaceX plans to begin Mars missions by 2026, starting with uncrewed flights to test landing reliability. According to Elon Musk, these tests are crucial for ensuring the spacecraft can land intact on Mars. If the landings are successful, SpaceX aims to send its first crewed missions to the red planet within the next four years. The goal is to event...

NASA's InSight Mars Lander Records Vibrations of Space Rocks' Impact on Mars Surface: All Details
NASA announced on Monday that its InSight Mars lander had detected space rocks as they impacted the surface of the Red Planet. The robotic InSight lander tracked one space rock landing in 2020 and the other three in 2021, and all four were relatively modest in size, according to the US space agency. Researchers expect to find more data from the lan...
