Evidence indicates that Mars may have hosted life billions of years ago. Mars is now cold, dry, and without its protective magnetic field. Scientists study the planet as a scene that helps them find ...

Like Earth, Mars once had a strong magnetic field that shielded its thick atmosphere from the solar wind. But now only the magnetic imprint remains. What's long baffled scientists, though, is why this ...

Did Mars once have a full magnetic field in its ancient past like Earth does today, or was it lopsided and only covered one-half of the planet? This is what a recent study published in Geophysical ...

It used to be thought that there were more volatiles than expected in lunar soil because they escaped Earth before it had a stable magnetic field. Researchers who ran simulations of these atmospheric ...

Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket lifts off at Launch Complex 36 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station prior to its scheduled 1 a.m. January 16 launch on January 16, 2025 in Cape Canaveral, Florida.

Mars' global magnetic field may have hung around for 200 million years longer than scientists had thought, possibly giving life a longer window to take hold on the Red Planet. When you purchase ...

First ever supercomputer simulations of Mars with a fully molten core could explain the Red Planet's unusual magnetic field. Billions of years ago, Mars had an active magnetic field. Mysteriously, its ...

Computer simulation of a one-sided magnetic field on early Mars based on data from a study led by the University of Texas Institute for Geophysics. The study could explain the unusual magnetic imprint ...
