NASA has released a sound recording from Mars. So what do these literally otherworldly sounds tell us about the processes at play inside the red planet?
An academic describes the career high of working on the most successful mission to Mars, and the little rover that made it possible.
The last signals from Cassini space probe before it burns up in Saturn’s atmosphere will tracked by the Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex.
New research provides a compact but powerful way for Mars rovers to communicate directly with Earth via an array of smaller antenna elements, bypassing the need for an intermediary.
“All systems go!” I said cautiously with a long sigh of relief. I had approved plans for the first soil analysis that would give humankind clues to the past and future habitability of Mars. One small word…
