Clay-Bearing Sediments on Mars Indicate Life May Have Thrived on the Red Planet Billion Years Ago
Scientists, in a latest study, have found a region on the Red Planet that might have been “repeatedly habitable” until relatively late in Martian History. They have discovered the clay-bearing sediments within the Margaritifer Terra region of Mars. The region has some of the most extensively preserved landforms that were created by running wate...

These Three Earth-Like Planets May Be Our Best Chance Yet At Detecting Life
It seems like scientists are finding potentially habitable planets all the time these days, and they are - the Kepler Space Telescope is very, very good at its job, even though it's technically broken. But the three exoplanets described Monday in the journal Nature manage to stand apart: According to the scientists who discovered this trio, the Ear...
