A new study shows Mars’ early thick atmosphere could be locked up in the planet’s clay surface.

Watching for changes in the Red Planet’s orbit over time could be new way to detect passing dark matter.

The presence of organic matter is inconclusive, but the rocks could be scientists’ best chance at finding remnants of ancient Martian life.

The “oriented” samples, the first of their kind from any planet, could shed light on Mars’ ancient magnetic field.

A new technique uses remote images to gauge the strength of ancient and active rivers beyond Earth.

Day and night, and across seasons, the instrument generates breathable oxygen from the Red Planet’s thin atmosphere.

The fellowship supports research contributing to the field of planetary science and astronomy.

The findings include signs of flash flooding that carried huge boulders downstream into the lakebed.

Thanks to an MIT-designed instrument, a NASA mission has produced oxygen on another planet for the first time.

MIT scientists identify first magmas generated in solar system’s building blocks, unexpectedly answering questions about meteorites and formation of rocky planets.
