Mars may have released sulfur gases that trapped heat, shaped the climate, and created conditions for ancient life.
NASA has discovered signs of life on Mars in the form of organic carbon, sulfur, rust, and phosphorous in a canyon, and new ...
Astronomers have struggled to explain why a long and thin cloud forms above Mars’s Arsia Mons volcano each year, until now ...
Different parts of Mars have different advantages and disadvantages when it comes to their available resources, just like Earth. The polar caps are likely the most valuable in terms of their water ...
Astronauts train to scale a Mars volcano at an analogue site in France. Lava tubes that crisscross the Martian surface might provide sanctuaries for the first human explorers on the Red Planet. (Photo ...
Scientists have long been fascinated by icy moons and their unique volcanic environments. So, a team of researchers came ...
Here, the 'ice volcano' does not erupt molten rock, but rather 'ice magma' formed from a mixture of water ice, liquid brine, ...
Was Mars once warm enough to support life? Scientists are still unclear about what the climate was like on Mars billions of years ago. However, there are some clues. A form of sulfur from active ...
The Emirates Mars Infrared Spectrometer (EMIRS) on the Hope probe to Mars was used to track the formation and dissipation of ...
Scientists believe Mars was once much more Earth-like, with rivers, lakes, and possibly oceans, but the loss of its magnetic field left it exposed to solar radiation that stripped away its atmosphere ...
Findings from a new study indicate the changing dynamics of sulphur and the influence it has on framing Mars climate.
New research suggests that reduced sulphur gases from ancient Martian volcanoes may have contributed to a greenhouse effect, altering Mars' surface chemistry.
