To reach this conclusion, researchers developed the first model of the evolution of the Martian atmosphere that links the high temperatures associated with Mars's formation in a molten state ...

Researchers are creating advanced simulations that will provide a deeper understanding of Mars's climatic history and help to determine whether it was once able to sustain life. An international ...

New research suggests that Mars' missing atmosphere, long a mystery for planetary scientists, could be hiding within the ...

chemical reactions would have produced methane by drawing CO2 out of the atmosphere, eventually locking it in the planet's surface. Their model suggested that Mars' surface could contain up to 1.7 ...

New research suggests the atmosphere of Mars may be hiding ... of water and igneous rocks on Earth to create a model to apply to Mars. The model would reveal if water could have reacted with ...

New research suggests Mars ... the model to estimate the changes that olivine-rich rock might undergo, assuming that water existed on the surface for at least a billion years, and the atmosphere ...

Hydrogen was previously theorized as the magic ingredient, mixed with carbon dioxide in the Martian atmosphere ... once we bring Mars rocks back to Earth." Adams modified a model called KINETICS ...

We may be able to make Mars more livable by thickening its atmosphere using nanorods. ISTOCK / GETTY IMAGES PLUS In the paper, the researchers discuss a model they used to predict how using ...

A new study may solve a central mystery of the planet’s 4.6-billion-year history. Despite increasing evidence that water flowed on Mars billions of years ago, scientists have been mystified by ...

All evidence points to Mars having had a carbon dioxide-rich atmosphere billions of years ago, but insufficient carbonates in Martian soil challenge this theory. Now, a new study using data from ...

Mars’s atmosphere is thin and made up of primarily carbon dioxide. When condensed by cool temperatures and mixed together with dust and water vapour, it can create striking cloud patterns.

Mars is also thought to have gone through periods of vast glaciation, carving valleys on its surface, when the atmosphere temporarily disappeared. Forget's model is hoping to give insight into ...
