The presence of a 12-mile long lake under the south pole of Mars was probably just a technology glitch, scientists have said, dampening hopes that life may exist there. In 2018, the European Space ...
MRO used a special maneuver that rolls the spacecraft over 120 degrees. This enhances the power of SHARAD, which is MRO’s ...

Ancient lake on Mars may have risen and fallen under the tidal pull of a long lost moon
Thin layers of sedimentary rock in Mars’s Gale Crater suggest that the planet once had a moon much larger than the two that orbit it today, according to work to be presented at AGU’s Annual Meeting ...
Mars once hosted a lake larger than any on Earth. The broken-down and dried-up remnants of this ancient lakebed are shown here in amazing detail by ESA's Mars Express. This patch of Mars—shown in a ...
The Perseverance rover, which spent months traveling to Mars, could hardly have landed in a more interesting spot. The Jezero crater — a dry, wind-scoured patch of Martian rock where the rover touched ...

Study hints Mars once had a tide-raising mega moon
Mars looks quiet today, but new research suggests the planet’s surface still carries the rhythm of a vanished companion.
Is Mars home to an underwater lake? Different researchers are reaching different conclusions. Some say remote sensing from the Mars Express orbiter shows liquid water in an underground lake at Mars’ ...
Doubt has been cast on the possibility of a lake of liquid water buried beneath Mars' southern ice cap by new computer simulations, which suggest that closely compacted layers of ice could produce the ...
NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover team has confirmed that the red planet’s Jezero Crater was once the site of a delta-lake system. In a study published Thursday in the journal Science, the researchers ...
An ancient river delta at the site where NASA's Perseverance rover landed might hold proof of past life on Mars. Monisha Ravisetti was a science writer at CNET. She covered climate change, space ...
This Aug. 26, 2003, image made available by NASA shows Mars as it lines up with the Sun and the Earth. Photographed by the Hubble Space Telescope, it was about 55.8 million kilometers (34.6 million ...
