Is The Core of Mars Solid? New Data Analysis Says No…
Data from NASA’s InSight mission suggest Mars has a liquid core similar to Earth’s, but European scientists say the core may be solid, at least below a certain temperature.

Scientists have successfully used lasers to identify microbe fossils in rocks from Earth, which are like the rocks found on Mars, opening up the possibility of searching for fossils on the Red Planet.
New analysis of marsquakes, which are similar to earthquakes, could offer clues into how Mars has evolved over billions of years, according to new research from The Australian National University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Even though Saturn’s rings appear clean and young, they may be as old as the planet itself according to international researchers. It was previously thought that impacts with small rocky debris travelling through space – called micrometeoroids – would dirty and darken the rings over time, but in 2004 the Cassini spacecraft revealed the rings to be clean and bright suggesting that they are not very old.

The Voyager 2 flyby of Uranus in 1986 may have occurred during a rare intense wind event, according to international researchers who say this means our scientific understanding of the planet may be flawed.
Overseas researchers report new evidence suggesting the Moon is older than we previously thought thanks to a ‘remelting’ of the Moon’s surface around 4.35 billion years ago that may have masked a far older history.
New Curtin University-led research has uncovered what may be the oldest direct evidence of ancient hot water activity on Mars, revealing the planet may have been habitable at some point in its past.
To maximize chances of successfully bringing the first Martian rock and sediment samples to Earth for the benefit of humanity, NASA has announced a new approach to its Mars Sample Return Program.
Io doesn’t have a shallow global magma ocean beneath its surface, contrary to what was previously thought, despite the fact that it’s the most volcanically active body in the solar system according to international researchers..
Volcanoes on the dark side of the moon mainly erupted about 2.8 billion years ago, according to fragments of basalt – a type of volcanic rock – in soil samples collected by China’s Chang’e-6 mission.
Minerals on the surface of Mars could be the last remnants of an ancient sea 3.5 billion years ago, according to international researchers. The team say there are features in the southern Utopia region that could be evidence of a coastline, meaning for a short period in the planet’s history it could have had an ocean.
Pluto’s largest moon, Charon, has carbon dioxide and hydrogen peroxide on its surface, according to newly analysed data from the James Webb Space Telescope.
At the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, Falcon Heavy has lofted Europa Clipper off planet Earth bound for Jupiter’s icy moon.
NASA and SpaceX are targeting a launch period opening October 10 this year for the Europa Clipper mission, which will help scientists determine if one of Jupiter’s icy moons could support life.

Astronauts often experience immune dysfunction, skin rashes, and other inflammatory conditions while travelling in space, and international researchers believe these issues are likely due to the overly sterile nature of the International Space Station.

International scientists, including an Australian, say they’ve found evidence of the highest-energy neutrino detected to date. The result suggests the particle came from beyond our Milky Way, they say, although its precise origin remains mysterious.
