Research conducted by two physicists from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the US reveals that ...

A new analysis of Mars’ gravitational field has revealed hidden structures buried beneath the remains of an ancient ocean. The work, which was presented this week at the Europlanetary Science Congress ...

Clocks on Mars tick faster by about 477 microseconds each Earth day, a new study suggests. This difference is significantly more than that for our moon, posing potential challenges for future crewed ...

Despite its dry, dusty surface and thinner atmosphere, Mars may have more in common with Earth than scientists previously thought. In a new study, researchers at the University of Rochester—including ...

What did Mars look like billions of years ago? This is what a recent study presented at the Europlanet Science Congress (EPSC) 2024 hopes to address as a team of researchers investigated mysterious ...

New research presented at the Europlanet Science Congress this week has uncovered astonishing findings beneath the dusty surface of Mars. The study points to evidence that suggests the Red Planet once ...

“This is a really important operational evaluation of human health and performance that NASA is doing in preparation to land the first humans on Mars. In CHAPEA, we mimic what is the Mars surface ...

On average, Martian time ticks roughly 477 millionths of a second faster than terrestrial clocks per Earth day. But the Red ...

An enormous plume of magma is slowly but steadily rising underneath Mars and could one day provoke an eruption of the solar system's tallest volcano. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

Scientists have found that time passes slightly faster on Mars than on Earth, a difference caused by gravity and orbital motion that could affect future human missions, space navigation systems and ...
