NASA’s Perseverance Explores Mars' Oldest Rocks in Krokodillen Region
- Thursday May 22, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s Perseverance rover has reached Krokodillen, a 73-acre plateau near Jezero Crater's rim believed to host some of Mars’ oldest rocks. Preliminary data shows signs of clays, carbonates, and olivine minerals, suggesting ancient water activity. Currently examining a site named Copper Cove, the rover is using a new sampling strategy that allow...

New Study Uses AI to Reveal Dry Origins of Mars’ Mysterious Slope Streaks
- Thursday May 22, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A new study by researchers at Brown University and the University of Bern used machine learning to analyze 86,000 high-resolution images of Mars. Their findings suggest that recurring slope lineae (RSLs)—dark streaks once thought to indicate liquid water—are actually caused by dry processes like wind and dust movement. With over 500,000 feature...

NASA’s Perseverance Captures Deimos Before Dawn in Striking Martian Sky Image
- Monday May 19, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA’s Perseverance rover captured a rare pre-dawn image of Mars’ moon Deimos on Sol 1433, stitching together 16 long-exposure shots into a 52-second composition. Despite image noise and cosmic interference, the photo reveals Deimos, stars like Regulus and Algieba, and Martian sky conditions, highlighting the rover’s expanding role in celesti...

Water on Ancient Mars? New Study Challenges the Cold Planet Theory
- Saturday April 26, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists have uncovered compelling evidence suggesting that early Mars was surprisingly wet, featuring extensive networks of lakes and river basins shaped by rainfall and snowfall. This challenges long-held views of a predominantly cold and icy ancient Mars. Despite current climate models struggling to explain sustained liquid water on the Red Pl...

NASA’s Perseverance Rover Discovers a Large Number of Unique Rock Samples on Jezero Crater’s Rim
- Thursday April 17, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA's Perseverance rover is exploring the Martian rim of Jezero Crater, a crater filled with rocky outcrops. The mission has cored five rocks, performed up-close analysis of seven rocks, and analysed another 83 from afar using a laser. The diversity of rocks found has exceeded expectations, with tons of fragmented once-molten rocks and formerly un...

NASA's Perseverance Rover Captures One Dust Devil Devouring Another
- Monday April 7, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
NASA's Perseverance Mars rover's navigation camera captured a Martian dust devil swallowing a smaller one. The smaller dust devil's demise was captured during an imaging experiment carried out by Perseverance's science team to better understand the dynamics at work in the Martian atmosphere. In the 1970s, NASA's Viking orbiters became the first spa...

New Study Challenges Claims of Vast Underground Water on Mars
- Thursday March 27, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Mars’ water history remains a mystery as new research questions the claim that vast amounts of water are stored beneath its surface. A study led by Bruce Jakosky argues that previous estimates of Mars’ mid-crust being saturated with liquid water may be inaccurate. The findings challenge earlier interpretations of seismic data from NASA’s InSi...

New Research Reveals Mars’ Red Colour Linked to Ancient Water Presence
- Monday March 3, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A recent study suggests that Mars’ red hue originates from ferrihydrite, an iron oxide that forms in water-rich environments. Scientists recreated Martian dust in labs and found that the mineral remained stable despite the planet’s dry conditions. Data from orbiting spacecraft and rovers confirm this discovery, reshaping theories about Mars’ ...

Ancient Martian Ocean Shoreline Discovered Beneath Surface by Zhurong Rover
- Monday March 3, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
China's Zhurong rover has uncovered evidence of an ancient ocean on Mars, with ground-penetrating radar detecting a buried shoreline beneath the Utopia Basin. The rover’s scans revealed sloping sand layers similar to those found on Earth’s beaches, reinforcing theories of long-term water presence. Experts highlight that these formations are not...
