NASA's Curiosity rover has made a groundbreaking discovery on Mars by uncovering pure sulfur crystals within a broken rock. This finding is considered a significant scientific breakthrough, as pure sulfur had never been detected on Mars before.

The findings are the result of the ongoing studies performed by NASA’s Curiosity rover, which has been scouring the red planet since landing in 2012. The latest breakthrough came as scientists were able to analyse ripples on Mars' surface that signified the presence of ancient lake beds.

The low levels of gravity (microgravity) in space cause significant changes in astronauts' eyes and vision after six to 12 months aboard the International Space Station (ISS), according to a study published in the IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology.

NASA has found signs of a lake on Mars, with evidence suggesting the presence of water rather than just ice. Researchers discovered ripples in the sandy shores of ancient lakebeds on Mars, which were likely created by the movement of water pushed by wind.

To comply, NASA has sought to sanitize Mars rovers at a threshold of no more than 300,000 bacterial spores on any surface. That process has revealed plenty of microbes that can survive high temperatures, low nutrients, and a lack of moisture.

Any vehicle traversing the rocky terrain on Mars needs a sturdy set of wheels. NASA’s Perseverance rover, for example, sports thick aluminum ones covered in cleats to enhance its traction and mobility.

The president’s Inaugural Address linked landing on the Red Planet with Manifest Destiny, but left many of the specifics unclear.

New research reveals ancient ripples on Mars, providing compelling evidence of long-lost lakes that once existed 3.7 billion years ago.

Nuclear propulsion could be the future of space travel and NASA and General Atomics just brought us one step closer.

The next Mars rovers may traverse the Red Planet with futuristic tires. NASA 's Glenn Research Center released imagery and footage from testing of a novel tire, called a shape memory alloy spring tire, that would be capable of incurring significant deformation on rugged terrain, before springing back to its original shape.

An exploding budget and an unraveling schedule spell disappointment for NASA's mission to learn more about Mars's history.

The signs of wave ripples in the sandy shores of ancient lake beds, created as wind pushed water back and forth have been found on Mars providing evidence that there were open bodies of water, not just ice, on the planet's surface.
