Researchers continue to extract fresh scientific findings from Barringer Meteorite Crater in Arizona, a bowl-shaped depression carved by a space rock roughly 50,000 to 60,000 years ago. Recent ...

CAPE CANAVERAL SPACE FORCE STATION — In the end, poor weather forced Blue Origin on Sunday to scrub its second launch of its New Glenn rocket. It was supposed to send up NASA’s ESCAPADE mission, which ...

NASA’s Curiosity rover is investigating strange spiderweb-like ridges on Mars that may reveal a hidden chapter of the planet’s watery history. These “boxwork” formations likely formed when groundwater ...

We spend billions imagining what other planets might look like. Meanwhile, Earth regularly flexes landscapes so strange they barely seem real. For example, our planet has bleeding glaciers, sulfuric ...

The closest most of us will ever get to visiting Mars is watching movies or scrolling through NASA photos, but Paint Mines Interpretive Park in Calhan offers a surprisingly convincing alternative.

A duo of researchers has just published a study featured on the cover of the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics which shows that as it gets closer to the planet Mars, Phobos, its largest moon, ...

Geological features like these provide evidence that Mars once had a denser atmosphere and significant surface water — ...

Life's capacity to survive in simulated lunar and Martian soils has been explored in two papers published in Scientific Reports. Treating simulated lunar soil with both symbiotic fungi and ...

Newly released Mars images offer a detailed look at one of the Red Planet's oldest, most heavily cratered regions, a landscape shaped by billions of years of impacts, volcanism and erosion.

For decades, scientists have debated whether Mars once had a large ocean. Images from orbiters have shown valleys, channels ...

Scientists compare volcanic cones on Earth and Mars to explain how gas-rich magma forms scoria cones. Spacecraft observations and Earth analog sites provide evidence of similar eruptive processes.

You’ve probably followed the Mars rover missions on and off for years, watching those red-dust landscapes scroll across your TV screen and wondering: Could something have lived there once? Now, after ...
