Most quakes on Mars happen during the summer – and we don’t know why

NASA’s InSight lander recorded surprisingly large quakes that indicate Mars is more seismically active than we first thought. Mysteriously, they only happen during Martian summersSee the Story

Weighing in on a Mars water debate

50% Center coverage: 4 sources

Water once existed in abundance of at the surface of Mars. How much of that water has been stored in the planet's crust is still unclear, according to a new analysis.See the Story

A subterranean ocean on Mars? NASA may well have found...

The hypothesis, already raised a few months ago, is coming back in a new study: seismic data acquired by InSight on Mars could suggest the presence of liquid water in the Martian crust, between 10 and 20 kilometers deep. The arguments are getting stronger, even if this idea...See the Story

These Kidney Beans On Mars Are Frozen Sand Dunes, And They Could Have Hosted Life A Long Time Ago

On the Red Planet’s northern hemisphere, there are frozen sand dunes that look just like kidney beans—but you definitely can’t eat these! NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) captured images of the frozen sand dunes. They were taken to help scientists figure out if Mars could have hosted life a long time ago. The photos were taken in September 2022 and were released to the public in December 2024. Usually, dunes on both Mars and Earth migrat…See the Story

Mars could have a solid internal core - Digital Process

Mars has a liquid nucleus, according to data from NASA's InSight mission, but the existence of another solid internal nucleus cannot be excluded, according to a laboratory-based study published by Nature Communications. The entry Mars could have a solid internal nucleus was first published in Digital Process.See the Story

AI helps scientists match fresh impact craters with quakes on Mars

New Delhi: Scientists have used AI to match signals of Marsquakes detected by the InSight lander, with images of fresh impact craters captured by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO). The InSight lander recorded seismic activity between 2018 and 2022, when it could not generate any more power because of dust caking its solar panels. An AI algorithm was initially used to find fresh impact craters during this time period, resulting in a catalogue…See the Story

KA-BOOM! Mars shakes when meteors hit its surface

Paris, France (SPX) Feb 04, 2025 A space rock crashed into the martian surface in February 2021, generating seismic waves that extended 1640 km to reach NASA's InSight lander. The collision carved out a crater about 21 m wide and disturbed roughly 1400 m. ESA's ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO), through its Colour and Stereo Surface Imaging System (CaSSIS), captured the explosive moment. Marsquakes, the martian counterpartsSee the Story
