NASA’s Perseverance rover found “organic molecules” on the red planet.
The out-of-this-world discovery was uncovered by NASA’s Perseverance rover within Mars’ Jezero crater — a region with “high potential for past habitability as the site of an ancient lake basin with diverse minerals,” the researchers noted.
These molecules may also hold revelations about chemical species not yet detected by Earthlings. They could be housed within “two potentially habitable” regions of the crater — one believed to have formed around 4 billion years ago from an asteroid impact.NASA locks 4 volunteers into 3D-printed virtual ‘Mars’ for over a year

Evidence of Changing Winds on Mars Points to a Major Transformation 400,000 Years AgoMars may have witnessed a major shift in climate thousands of years ago, marking the end of the planet’s most recent ice age.

Wind Direction on Mars Changed Abruptly About 400,000 Years AgoChina's Zhurong rover landed in the Utopia Planitia region of Mars, a vast plain in the northern hemisphere. Dunes surround the landing site, piled up by winds over eons. Images from the rover show that the landing area went through two main climatic stages, where the predominant wind changed direction by 70 degrees. Scientists think this change happened around 400,000 years ago and could have been due to a change in the planet's rotation axis, causing a global climate change that affected wind patterns.
