NASA’s Perseverance Rover Finds Organic Molecules on Mars
NASA’s Perseverance rover has discovered possible organic molecules on Mars using the SHERLOC instrument. While these findings are intriguing, the scientific community remains divided. Some believe the signals suggest ancient life, while others argue the data could point to non-organic sources. The debate underscores the difficulty of interpretin...

NASA’s Curiosity Rover Concludes Sulphur Study in Gediz Vallis; Mars Journey Continues
NASA’s Curiosity rover has completed its study of Mars’ Gediz Vallis channel, capturing key images of the sulphur deposits discovered within. The rover's next mission will explore a unique geological formation called the Boxwork. Located in the foothills of Mount Sharp, Gediz Vallis is important for understanding the transition from Mars’ wet...

China's Zhurong Rover Helps Find Evidence of Potential Ancient Shoreline on Mars
China's Zhurong rover has found what might be the shoreline of an ancient Martian ocean, offering fresh support for theories that Mars once had vast bodies of water. Studying images and radar data from Utopia Planitia, the largest impact basin on Mars, scientists identified geological features that resemble coastlines, including pitted cones, troug...

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...

Chinese Rover Discovers Evidence Of 3.42 Billion Years Old Ocean On Mars
Like Earth and our solar system's other planets, Mars formed about 4.5 billion years ago. At the time the ocean apparently existed, it might already have begun its transition away from being a hospitable planet.

NASA's Perseverance Rover Observes Googly Eye Eclipse on Mars
NASA's Perseverance rover has captured a rare astronomical event in which the Martian moon Phobos passed in front of the Sun, creating a visual reminiscent of a "googly eye." This event, observed from the Jezero Crater, provided insights into the dynamics of Mars' moons. Phobos, the larger of Mars' two moons, obscured the Sun's disc for approximate...

NASA's Perseverance Rover Captures View of a Big Mars Cater
NASA's Perseverance rover, currently navigating the western rim of Jezero Crater on Mars, recently captured a breathtaking panoramic view of the landscape. Since landing in 2021, Perseverance has been exploring the 28-mile-wide crater, hoping to find evidence of ancient microbial life. The ascent has presented unique challenges for the rover, but e...

NASA's Mars Perseverance Rover Uncovers Distinct Red Rocks with Green Spots at 'Serpentine Rapids'
NASA's Mars Perseverance rover has unveiled intriguing findings at Serpentine Rapids, a location characterised by its striking red rocks interspersed with distinctive green spots. These features, observed in a nighttime mosaic captured by the rover's SHERLOC WATSON camera, may provide insights into Mars' geological history. The green spots are thou...

Perseverance Rover Sees Phobos Block the Sun During Martian Solar Eclipse
NASA's Perseverance rover recently captured a stunning solar eclipse on Mars, showcasing the moon Phobos as it partially blocked the sun. This remarkable event, photographed on September 30, 2024, was made possible by the rover's Left Mastcam-Z camera, which highlighted Phobos's irregular shape. Measuring about 17 miles long and orbiting Mars at a ...

Bristol's System Could Revolutionise Lunar Exploration with Remote Rover Control
The University of Bristol has developed a teleoperation system enabling remote control of lunar rovers, potentially revolutionising how lunar missions are conducted. The system bypasses signal delays, enabling precise sample collection and assembly tasks. Haptic feedback simulates lunar conditions, giving operators a realistic sense of touch when p...

Perseverance Rover Captures Bizarre Mars Rock That Looks Like a Human Head
NASA’s Perseverance rover has made a bizarre discovery on Mars: a rock that strikingly resembles a human head. Captured on 27 September 2024, the image showcases the rock's peculiar shape and orientation, which play tricks on our brains, a phenomenon known as pareidolia. This occurrence leads us to see familiar patterns, like faces, in random obj...
