"Without Mars, Earth's orbit would be missing major climate cycles. What would humans and other animals even look like if ...

The idea that Mars could affect Earth’s climate sounds dramatic, since climate change is usually linked to cars, factories, forests, and oceans, not distant planets. Yet Earth is part of a solar ...

A deceptive difference having to do with Earth's and Mars's gravity may be the reason why NASA's rovers get stuck in the otherworldly sands. Reading time 2 minutes In the spring of 2019, the ...

Thanks to Einstein’s relativity, time flows differently on Mars than on Earth. NIST scientists have now nailed down the difference, showing that Mars clocks tick slightly faster—and fluctuate over the ...

The Red Planet's low gravity and lack of magnetic field makes its outermost atmosphere an easy target to be swept away by the solar wind, but new evidence from ESA's Mars Express spacecraft shows that ...
