Like Earth, Mars once had a strong magnetic field that shielded its thick atmosphere from the solar wind. But now only the magnetic imprint remains. What's long baffled scientists, though, is why this ...
Scientists peering into the very heart of hearts of the planet Mars have found a deeply unexpected structure. There, at the innermost core of the planet, InSight seismic data reveals a solid mass ...
The study of Martian geology and meteorites has transformed our understanding of the Red Planet’s evolution and its geodynamic processes. Recent investigations have revealed a complex interior ...
Mars has a solid inner core, according to a new study published in Nature. Using seismic data from NASA’s InSight lander, researchers identified a dense, solid core about 600 kilometers wide, ...
It's time now for our science news roundup from Short Wave, NPR's science podcast. I am joined by the show's two hosts, Regina Barber and Emily Kwong. Hi, y'all. EMILY KWONG, BYLINE: Hi. REGINA BARBER ...
A new map of Mars’ gravity made with three NASA spacecraft is the most detailed to date, providing a revealing glimpse into the hidden interior of the Red Planet. “Gravity maps allow us to see inside ...
Researchers have found bizarre, enormous structures hidden deep beneath the remains of an ancient Martian ocean. These dense structures may have been formed by ancient volcanic activity, or by space ...
Unravelling the interior structure of Mars is critical for understanding its geological evolution and current dynamical processes. Mars seismology investigates the generation, propagation and ...
