ESA Reveals City-Size ‘Cosmic Butterfly’ Crater on Mars Containing Signs of Ancient Water
ESA has captured a city-sized butterfly-shaped crater on Mars with smooth wings likely formed by melted underground ice. Studying this rare structure helps scientists understand asteroid impacts, Mars’ surface ice, and the planet’s ancient watery past while offering insight into how unusual crater formations develop on the Red Planet.

NASA's Hubble Captures Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Ahead of Close Mars Flyby
On October 3, 2025, interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS will pass just 30 million km from Mars — nine times closer than from Earth. ESA’s Mars Express and TGO, along with NASA and China’s orbiters, will attempt to image its coma, analyze gases, and study this rare visitor from beyond the solar system.
