A NASA rover that launched from Florida detected electrical sparks igniting within small dusty tornadoes whirling on Mars' surface.

NASA’s HiRISE camera captured its 100,000th image of Mars in 2025. Stunning orbital photos reveal dunes, mesas and surface changes on the Red Planet.

MRO used a special maneuver that rolls the spacecraft over 120 degrees. This enhances the power of SHARAD, which is MRO’s ...

Bringing samples from Mars back to Earth is one of NASA's most ambitious goals. The plan goes back to the 1970s, with NASA's robotic exploration program, when the first spacecraft landed on the ...

This could be the end of the orbiter that studies the Red Planet’s atmosphere and relays communications between NASA and its Mars rovers.

A NASA spacecraft that has been circling Mars for more than two decades has spotted something it never has before in well over 100,000 orbits of the Red Planet. On a morning horizon in May, the ...
