Surface rocks imaged by the rover cameras show evidence of physical weathering processes, such as wind erosion, and potential chemical weathering processes. Joint investigations utilizing the scientific payloads of the rover and the orbiter can provide insights into local aeolian and aqueous history, ...
Illustration of NASA’s Perseverance rover landing safely on Mars, lowered to the surface by the mission’s hovering “sky crane.” NASA and JPL-Caltech Humanity’s on-again, off-again exploration of Mars has lived through its latest make-or-break moment, and scientists around the...
In the 1960s, humans set out to discover what the red planet has to teach us. Now, NASA is hoping to land the first humans on Mars by the 2030s.
Two selfies taken by Zhurong on May 19 last year and January 22 this year have shown that dust began to cover the surface as time passed. "So far everything looks safe and sound, but the dust could affect the power generation of the solar wings, as the dust is bou...
From orbit or on the surface of Mars, teleoperating robotic assets as precursors to human struts across Mars can probe sites out-of-reach of a human landing site, or to assess a rich diversity of terrains and habitats. Back here on Earth, there's need for ground controllers to operate th...
NASA has released a new map of Mars’s northern hemisphere showing all the places where subsurface water ice has been detected, some of which are surprisingly close to the equator, as well as surprisingly close to the surface. This map could decide the first human landing site. Continue readi...
The Tianwen-1 orbiter had been operating for 780 days and the rover Zhurong had traveled 1,921 meters on the surface of the red planet as of Thursday, according to the CNSA's Lunar Exploration and Space Program Center. Both the orbiter and rover have completed targeted scientific exploration...
