Mars Dust Storms May Be Predictable Based on Surface Heating Patterns
A new study suggests warm days on Mars often precede dust storms, with researchers analysing data from NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. The findings show 78% of storms correlate with increased solar heating, particularly in northern regions of the planet. Scientists have developed an algorithm predicting certain storm types with 64% confidence, ...

NASA's Perseverance Rover Studies Intense Dust Storms on the Red Planet
NASA's Perseverance had managed to film a phenomenon where gusts of wind lifted a massive Martian dust cloud. It has also detected hundreds of dust winds using the camera mounted on it and a suite of sensors.

NASA Scientists Get Glimpse Of Lost Mars Rover, But No Sign Of Activity
NASA scientists can now see their solar-powered probe that was lost in a Martian dust storm more than 100 days ago -- but the vintage robot hasn't shown any signs of life.

Mars Dust Storm Clears Raising Hope For Stalled NASA Rover
One of the biggest Martian dust storms on record is clearing up after nearly three months, raising hope that NASA's stranded, solar-powered robotic vehicle, Opportunity, will soon come back to life.

NASA's Curiosity Rover Captures Images of Martian Dust Storm
As of Tuesday morning, the Martian dust storm had grown in size and was officially a "planet-encircling" (or "global") dust event, NASA said in a statement on Wednesday.

NASA's Opportunity Rover "Falls Asleep" After Martian Dust Storm, Will "Wait It Out"
A massive dust storm raging across Mars has overcome NASA's aging Opportunity rover, putting the unmanned, solar-powered vehicle into sleep mode and raising concerns about its survival, the US space agency said Wednesday.

NASA's Opportunity Rover Halted Over Martian Dust Storm
NASA's Opportunity rover's science operations have been temporarily suspended as it waits out a growing dust storm on Mars, the US space agency said in a statement.

Nasa Reveals the Fact and Fiction of Martian Dust Storms
The winds in the largest dust storms are unlikely to tip over or rip apart major mechanical equipment, Nasa said.
