UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Frozen in time, ancient microbes or their remains could be found in Martian ice deposits during future missions to the Red Planet. By recreating Mars-like conditions in the lab, ...

What can craters on Mars teach scientists about the Red Planet’s climate history? This is what a recent study published in Geology hopes to address as a team of researchers investigated ice buildup ...

Changes in Mars’ axial tilt (obliquity) drive shifts between polar ice caps at low obliquity and widespread mid-latitude glaciation at high obliquity. These cycles result in ice accumulating inside ...

"Explosive volcanism could repeatedly seed low latitudes with ice and ash, producing buried or insulated ice deposits that help explain the excess hydrogen signals measured near the equator." When you ...
