Another point for life on Mars: Signs of liquid water discovered under the planet's surface
Mars has evidence of a reservoir of liquid water miles below its surface, potentially enough to cover the entire planet with an ocean about one mile deep.
"Follow the salt": A new strategy for finding life on Mars
NASA's Mars exploration strategy to find life focuses on water, potentially missing other viable habitats and life-forms.
The invisible problem with sending people to Mars
Space radiation poses serious, often overlooked health risks for astronauts aiming to explore Mars, presenting a potential barrier to crewed missions.
NASA's Curiosity rover accidentally uncovered pure sulfur crystals on Mars
Elemental sulfur discovered on Mars for the first time by Curiosity rover.
NASA believes it understands why Ingenuity crashed on Mars
The Ingenuity helicopter crashed due to its navigation sensors failing to detect sufficient surface features on Mars.
Engineers concluded that smooth terrain hindered the helicopter's ability to navigate effectively.
NASA is investigating the Ingenuity helicopter's final flight on Mars
NASA is investigating the final flight of the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter, marking a historic first analysis of an aircraft accident on another planet.

Astronomer predicts just how soon humans will travel to Mars
Astronomer David Whitehouse predicts that humans will travel to Mars in the 2040s, with the success of upcoming moon explorations leading to a better understanding of how to survive the journey to Mars.
The length of time to travel to Mars is a major challenge, as there is little information on how a one-year journey in space would affect the human body.
There's a Big Problem With Using Nuclear Rockets to Get to Mars
Nuclear fission-fueled rockets could significantly reduce Mars travel time, but challenges with fuel accessibility and weight complicate development.
