Volcanology
A new study reveals that a volcano south of Pavonis Mons on Mars formed through multiple eruptive phases powered by an evolving magma system, challenging earlier assumptions of a single eruption. Researchers used orbital imaging and mineral data to trace the volcano's development. The findings indicate Mars's interior was more active than previously thought.

Scientists analyzing old radar data from NASA's Magellan spacecraft have identified evidence of a large underground lava tube beneath Venus's surface near Nyx Mons. The structure, potentially a kilometer wide and extending dozens of kilometers, highlights the planet's volcanic past. This discovery, led by researchers at the University of Trento, was published in Nature Communications.
