NASA’s recent study suggests that Martian ice could preserve life forms, or their traces, for over 50 million years, making it a prime target for future exploration missions.

New photos captured by NASA's Curiosity rover show that Mars' giant, spiderweb-like "boxwork" features are covered in tiny, never-before-seen nodules that bear a striking resemblance to arachnid ...

For about six months, NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover has been exploring a region full of geologic formations called boxwork, low ridges standing roughly 3 to 6 feet (1 to 2 meters) tall with sandy ...

NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover captured images of hilly terrain on Mars, described by scientists as resembling spiderwebs from orbit, which provide clues about the planet’s watery past.

Scientists think groundwater once moved through fractures in bedrock which resulted in the infamous stone latticework.

Water ice on Mars, bubbling gas on a distant star, a snow-covered island, and a pre-planetary nebula are featured this week. Plus, a look back at an image of Mars taken by the Dawn spacecraft during a ...

Maybe David Bowie was right with his spiders from Mars? Space scientists say they have spotted a hilly landscape that looks ...

Mars’ frozen ice caps may be time capsules for ancient life. Lab experiments show that key building blocks of proteins can survive tens of millions of years in pure ice, even under relentless cosmic ...

A new technology lets NASA’s Mars rover pinpoint its position within inches, drive farther on its own, and speed up exploration.

NASA’s Curiosity rover has finally completed its focused survey of the so-called spiderwebs of Mars, providing us the first close-up look at a massive network of geologic ridges on Mount Sharp.
