A new study of Mars' gravitational field has revealed mysterious structures hiding beneath the sediment layers of a lost ocean. Experts still aren't sure what they are or how they formed.

The interactive Global CTX Mosaic of Mars is the most detailed 3D map of Mars ever made. It was developed using 110,000 images taken by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.

Scientists have discovered "structures" on Mars hidden by sediment beneath a lost ocean. Academics from Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands made the discovery as they were gravity ...

Since it arrived at Mars in 2006, the MRO has been snapping pictures of nearly all of the Red Planet, making its images an optimal starting point for scientists when they’re creating a map.

That's where these Martian ice maps come in handy. And even beyond mission planning, scientists believe they can use maps like SWIM’s to better understand why, exactly, Mars looks the way it does.

Looking at dunes and other rock formations on both Earth and Mars can tell scientists the environmental conditions that ...

Detailed imaging of the surface of Mars from orbit has allowed space scientists to produce the most detailed geological map yet of part of the Red Planet. The new map was released on Friday, 12 ...

Called Mars Ice Mapper, it's an orbiting spacecraft packing a powerful radar that will be used specifically for ice detection, based on the findings NASA already has on its map.

Scientists can use the map – part of the Subsurface Water Ice Mapping project – to decide where the first astronauts to set foot on the Red Planet should land.
