NASA’s Perseverance rover is testing spacesuit materials on Mars to help scientists design gear for future astronauts.

After the planet lost much of its atmosphere, however, surface water could no longer persist. The fate of Mars’ water—whether it was buried ... a measure called the global equivalent layer. For ...

"We found evidence for wind, waves, no shortage of sand—a proper, vacation-style beach," said geologist Benjamin Cardenas.

Her research provides new insights for understanding how the atmosphere of Mars has evolved over time. Unlike Earth, Mars lacks a global magnetic field and interacts with the solar wind directly.

The findings, based on long-term atmospheric data, offer a fresh perspective on the behaviors of Mars' middle atmosphere, highlighting fundamental differences from Earth's. The study applied ...
