One of six instruments aboard the agency’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, CRISM produced global maps of minerals on the Red Planet’s surface.

A pair of quakes in 2021 sent seismic waves deep into the Red Planet’s core, giving scientists the best data yet on its size and composition.

The update brings loads of improvements, the most significant being new driving capabilities.

NASA’s Perseverance rover cored and stored the first sample of the mission’s newest science campaign on Thursday, March 30.

Research reveals a new explanation for how the icy shell of Jupiter’s moon Europa rotates at a different rate than its interior.

The solar-powered lander has run out of energy after more than four years of science on the Red Planet.

NASA Mars lander felt the ground shake during the impact while cameras aboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter spotted the yawning new crater from space.

This page showcases our resources for those interested in learning more about Mars.

The rover has arrived at a special region believed to have formed as Mars’ climate was drying.

InSight’s team is taking steps to help the solar-powered lander continue operating for as long as possible.

The Mars lander’s seismometer has picked up vibrations from four separate impacts in the past two years.

NASA’s Perseverance rover is well into its second science campaign, collecting rock-core samples.

NASA will host a briefing at 11:30 a.m. EDT on Sept. 15, to provide highlights from the first year and a half of the Perseverance rover’s mission.

The rover found that Jezero Crater’s floor is made up of volcanic rocks that have interacted with water.

When NASA put a lander and the first rover on Mars a quarter century ago, they changed how we explore other worlds.

NASA has finished the system requirements review for its Mars Sample Return Program.

From deep below the soil at Earth’s polar regions to Pluto’s frozen heart, ice exists all over the solar system...and beyond.

To most of us, dust is an annoyance. But these tiny particles that float about and settle on surfaces play an important role across the solar system.

NASA-funded scientists have discovered shaded locations within pits on the Moon that always hover around a comfortable 63 F.

It’s dust season and winter on Mars, meaning there’s more dust in the air and less sunlight to help recharge Ingenuity’s batteries.

The rover has inspected a stretch of the Red Planet to see if it is flat enough for NASA’s next Mars lander.

By identifying clouds in data collected by NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, the public can help scientists.

The map, to be released in batches over six months, covers most of the planet, revealing dozens of minerals found on the surface.

The mission’s team will operate its seismometer longer than planned, so the lander will run out of power sooner as a result.
