NASA's Curiosity rover has discovered a variety of organic molecules on Mars, including compounds similar to DNA building blocks. The findings, from an innovative chemical experiment, suggest the planet's surface can preserve ancient organics potentially billions of years old. Scientists emphasize that while promising, the molecules do not confirm past life.

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.

A recent analysis of clay pebbles from Mars' Jezero crater suggests the planet experienced a warm and wet climate during the Noachian epoch billions of years ago. This finding challenges the prevailing view of a cold and icy environment at that time. The evidence comes from NASA's Perseverance rover and points to conditions potentially suitable for life.
