NASA scientists have announced first results from new intelligent systems, to be installed in space probes, capable of identifying geochemical signatures of life from rock samples
There is evidence that rivers once coursed across the Martian surface; a new study shows the water flowed long enough to record signs of ancient life as well
Organic compounds called thiophenes were recently discovered on Mars and an astrobiologist thinks their presence would be consistent with the presence of early life on the planet
A new study shows that the rover's Jezero crater landing site is home to deposits of hydrated silica, a mineral that just happens to be particularly good at preserving biosignatures
