Ancient meteorite reveals evidence of liquid water on Mars 742 million years ago
A team of scientists has found evidence of liquid water on Mars from 742 million years ago in a Martian meteorite known as the Lafayette Meteorite. This meteorite, now at Purdue University, traveled from Mars to Earth after an asteroid impact on Mars about 11 million years ago sent fragments of the red planet into
Did China's Rover Zhurong Find Evidence of Water on Mars? Here's What We Know
A Chinese Mars rover may have found evidence of an ancient ocean on the arid Red Planet. According to a new paper in the journal Scientific Reports, China's Zhurong rover has discovered traces of special features that could indicate an ocean existed long ago around Mars' Utopia Planitia region—located in its Northern Hemisphere.
Meteorite found in a drawer in 1929 contains ancient evidence of liquid water on Mars
A sliver of Martian rock that once lay hidden in a university drawer has helped researchers better understand the Red Planet’s geological history. Using isotopic dating, a team at Purdue University has determined that the “Lafayette Meteorite” likely interacted with liquid water approximately 742 million years ago.
