Unlike on Earth there aren’t dozens of satellites whizzing around Mars to provide satellite navigation functionality. Recently NASA’s JPL engineers tried something with the ...

NASA's Curiosity Mars rover discovered these bumpy, pea-sized nodules while exploring a region filled with boxwork formations—low ridges standing roughly 3 to 6 feet (1 to 2 meters) tall with sandy ...

NASA's Curiosity rover found organic compounds on Mars that are often produced by living things on Earth. A new study concluded that non-biological processes alone cannot explain the presence of these ...

On Earth, we can punch an address into Google Maps and be on our way in seconds. But plotting a course for NASA's Perseverance rover, 140 million miles away on Mars, is significantly more difficult.

Free AI tools Goose and Qwen3-coder may replace a pricey Claude Code plan. Setup is straightforward but requires a powerful local machine. Early tests show promise, though issues remain with accuracy ...

Jezero Crater is the home of NASA's Perseverance rover. See a bird's-eye view of the crater with this animated flyover created using data from ESA's Mars Express orbiter and the Mars Reconnaissance ...

AI is coming for our jobs, and now we can add "Mars Rover Driver" to that list. Last month, the Perseverance rover successfully drove not one, but two trips across the Martian surface planned by AI ...

Scientists believe these rocks were formed by ancient rainfall, similar to how they form in tropical climates on Earth. The discovery adds to the evidence that Mars may have once been a habitable ...

NASA has released details of a test it conducted in December in which it used generative AI to plan a route for the Perseverance rover. The test run seems to have gone rather well, prompting NASA to ...

February marks the five-year anniversary of Perseverance‘s time on Mars. But when it comes to trying out new things, NASA’s rover seems to be as active as it was on the day it first arrived on the ...

NASA’s Perseverance rover has just made history by driving across Mars using routes planned by artificial intelligence instead of human operators. A vision-capable AI analyzed the same images and ...
