Perseverance Rover Records Lightning on Mars

NASA's Perseverance rover has captured the first audio of lightning on Mars. These tiny electrical discharges in dust storms could impact the search for life. Read the full discovery.

ISRO: Cosmic dust particle hits Earth every 16 minutes

ISRO's DEX instrument confirms an interplanetary dust particle enters Earth's atmosphere every 1,000 seconds. This discovery is vital for protecting space assets and future missions to Moon, Mars, and Venus.

ESA Images Show Mars Had Glaciers Near Equator

New ESA Mars Express images reveal grooves from ancient glaciers at Coloe Fossae, evidence of a Martian ice age driven by orbital shifts, not climate change. Explore the Red Planet's icy past!

Why NASA Tests Mars Exploration Tools in Iceland

NASA scientists use Iceland's extreme volcanic terrain to simulate Mars conditions and search for ancient life clues. Discover how Earth's geology guides the hunt for Martian biosignatures.

Earth's Oxygen to Deplete in a Billion Years: NASA Study

A NASA-backed study reveals Earth's oxygen-rich atmosphere is not permanent. Driven by the Sun's increasing brightness, oxygen levels will collapse in about a billion years, making the planet uninhabitable for complex life.

Scientists Discover 8 Mysterious Caves on Mars

Researchers have identified eight unusual pits on Mars in Hebrus Valles, possibly water-carved caves. These sheltered spaces could be key targets in the search for past Martian life. Read the full findings.
