For the first time, researchers have demonstrated that certain lichen species can survive Mars-like conditions, including ...

Scientists call these organisms extremophiles, since they can thrive in Earth's coldest, warmest, and high-pressure environments. Sending microbes to Mars violates a key tenet of NASA policy But ...

Changes in pressure like this are why your ears sometimes pop when traveling between different elevations. Mars has surface pressure just like Earth does, but it's much less significant than ours.

By combining data from Mars satellites with advanced computer models, the study unveils how solar activity—such as solar radiation, solar dynamic pressure and interplanetary magnetic field ...

conducted here on Earth found that an iron and sulphur mixture mirroring the Red Planet’s inner core crystallized under high heat and pressure. This suggests that the deep interior of Mars could ...

To mitigate global climate change, emissions of the primary culprit, carbon dioxide, must be drastically reduced. A newly developed process helps solve this problem: CO2 is directly split ...

As Tesla faces protests and falling stock prices, billionaire investor admits he’s ‘spread too thin’ — and may soon leave his ...

"She actually created a system that simulated Mars atmospheric pressure," said Tillman, "so it was just like it's like on Mars — temperature, pressure, humidity — all of that in a chamber." ...

As astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams acclimatize to Earth, the effects of being stranded in space for nine months, ...

As a Chinese research team reports in the journal Angewandte Chemie, oxygen could also be produced in this way under water or in space—without requiring stringent conditions such as pressure and ...
