  NASA Spacecrafts at Mars Record Biggest Meteor Strikes, Impact Craters Yet

  Two NASA spacecraft at Mars — one on the surface and the other in orbit — have recorded the biggest meteor strikes and impact craters yet. The larger of the two strikes churned out boulder-size slabs of ice, which may help researchers look for ways future astronauts can tap into Mars’ natural resources.

  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...

  NASA's Mars InSight Lander Data Reveals Surprising Results About Possibility of Life on the Red Planet

  According to a recent study conducted by the researchers at the University of California San Diego, Mars' subsurface has little to no evidence of water. The surprising results were derived after studying the seismic data from NASA's Mars InSight mission. The InSight lander studies the subsurface of the red planet digging roughly 300 meters beneath ...
