Berkeley Lab research, shock experiments show how mineral found in Martian meteorites may provide clues to ancient abundance of water

All of these seven planets could have liquid water—key to life as we know it—under the right atmospheric conditions, but the chances are highest with the three in the habitable zone

Martian sand dunes show evidence that water may have been active near Mars' equator

The analysis of samples in situ in which CSIC participated shows that it did not contain the minimum CO2 level required for the existence of a liquid water lake in Gale Crater

Solar twin could hold clues to planetary formation

ALMA's high sensitivity for detecting polarized radio waves made possible this important step in tracing the formation of planets around young stars

Scientists examined part of Mars' Utopia Planitia region, in the mid-northern latitudes, with the orbiter's ground-penetrating Shallow Radar instrument

In a study led by the University of Stirling, an international team of researchers has found the lack of rust on the meteorites indicates that Mars is incredibly dry, and has been that way for millions of years

The large and distant planet may be adding a wobble to the solar system, giving the appearance that the sun is tilted slightly

Data confirm model in which impact pulverizes Earth like a sledgehammer hitting a watermelon
