One of the most successful and enduring feats of interplanetary exploration, NASA's Opportunity rover mission is at an end after almost 15 years exploring the surface of Mars

he lander's second instrument is on the ground. But its ‘mole’ — a burrowing probe — has a long way to go.

NASA will discuss the status of its Mars Exploration Rover (MER) Opportunity in a media briefing at 2 p.m. EST (11 a.m. PST) Wednesday, Feb. 13.

a new 360-video lets the public visit Curiosity's final drill site on Vera Rubin ridge, an area nicknamed "Rock Hall."

The first CubeSat mission to deep space may have reached their limit, but they could inspire future NASA missions.

NASA's InSight lander has been making adjustments to its seismometer. Now it's reached another milestone by placing a domed shield over the seismometer to help the instrument collect accurate data.

Smartphone-like sensors on the NASA rover were used to calculate the density of Mount Sharp, offering new clues to its formation.

Engineers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory have begun transmitting a new set of commands to the Opportunity rover in an attempt to compel the 15-year-old Martian explorer to contact Earth.

The rover landed in a region of the Red Planet called Meridiani Planum 15 years ago today, on Jan. 24, 2004.

In deploying its first instrument onto the surface of Mars, the lander completes a major mission milestone.

Like NASA's Curiosity rover, InSight has a full-scale working model at the agency's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. This sister lander, aptly named ForeSight, lets the team test all operations before they happen on Mars.

Look closely, and you can make out the lander's solar panels.

Two new image mosaics detail the lander's deck and "workspace" — the surface where it will eventually set down its science instruments.

NASA's InSight has provided the first ever "sounds" of Martian winds on the Red Planet.

Now unstowed, the spacecraft's robotic arm will point a camera located on its elbow and take images of the surroundings.

With InSight safely on the surface of Mars, the mission team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, is busy learning more about the spacecraft's landing site.

A pair of tiny, experimental spacecraft fulfilled their mission yesterday, relaying back near-real-time data during InSight's landing.

Mars just received its newest robotic resident. NASA's InSight lander successfully touched down on the Red Planet after an almost seven-month, 300-million-mile (458-million-kilometer) journey from Earth.

The latest updates from the the Mars Insight team.

In just over 24 hours, NASA's InSight spacecraft will complete its seven-month journey to Mars. It will have cruised 301,223,981 miles (484,773,006 km) at a top speed of 6,200 mph (10,000 kph).

NASA's Mars InSight spacecraft is on track for a soft touchdown on the surface of the Red Planet on Nov. 26, the Monday after Thanksgiving.

The following is a list of expected milestones for the spacecraft, assuming all proceeds exactly as planned and engineers make no final changes.

In studying Mars, NASA's InSight will reveal what makes one planet more or less suitable for life than another.

After a five-year search, NASA has chosen Jezero Crater as the landing site for its upcoming Mars 2020 rover mission.

November 16 marks the premiere of a unique film and musical experience inspired by the Hubble Space Telescope’s famous Deep Field image
