A dark rock picked off the gravel plains of Oman turned out to be a piece of Mars, blasted off the planet by an impact. It now rides aboard Perseverance as a calibration target, back on the world it came from

For years scientists argued whether the pale band along Jezero crater's western inner rim was lakeshore sediment or altered igneous rock. A study published in January 2026 suggests both sides were partly right — one stretch of it looks like a beach

Olympus Mons grew so massive that parts of its lower flanks catastrophically collapsed, sending broken rock sliding hundreds of kilometres across the Martian plains—possibly lubricated when hot lava melted buried ice.
4+ day, 17+ hour ago (718+ words) Orbital evidence links Olympus Mons's aureole to immense flank failures. Water or ice may explain the long runout, but lava-driven melting remains one proposed mechanism....
A radar aboard ESA’s Mars Express detected an extraordinarily bright reflection beneath 1.5 kilometres of Martian polar ice, spread across a patch roughly 20 kilometres wide. Years later, a second radar aboard NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter finally reached the same layer — and saw only a faint echo, deepening a debate over whether there is liquid water, unusual rock, or something else beneath Mars’s south pole.
3+ week, 6+ day ago (320+ words) MARSIS found an intensely bright boundary beneath Mars's south polar ice. SHARAD has now reached the same layer and returned a much fainter signal....
Jupiter pulls so hard on Io that the moon’s solid ground rises and falls by as much as 100 metres every orbit — a tide in rock the height of a 30-storey building, and the repeated flexing powers the most volcanically active world in the Solar System
3+ week, 2+ day ago (1555+ words) Io's ground can move by as much as 100 metres as Jupiter's changing tide flexes the moon, converting orbital energy into the heat that drives its volcanoes. By Lachlan Brown · Edited by Lachlan Brown Published August 21, 2026 · How we edit Io looks…...
