New ultraviolet images beamed from Mars by NASA's MAVEN spacecraft show huge swaths of clouds forming above the red planet in incredible new detail. The imagery also reveals a never-before ...
NASA's Mars rover recently found a "texture unlike anything we've seen before" and new images captured by NASA showed the planet's clouds are iridescent.
The images, which were captured on Jan. 17 by one of two cameras onboard Curiosity, feature "noctilucent" or twilight clouds — clouds captured wafting so high up in the Mars sky that they are ...
Noctilucent, or "night-shining", clouds can be seen on Mars, just as they are on Earth. Nasa's Curiosity Mars rover imaged these high-altitude clouds on 17 May, 2019, using its navigation cameras.
Nasa has shared a video of some pretty cool-looking clouds, spotted above the planet Mars. Their Curiosity rover - a robot helping scientists learn more about Mars - captured this amazing video ...
In the mid- and upper-latitudes on Earth, during the early evening hours, thin and wispy clouds can sometimes be observed in the upper atmosphere. These clouds have an ethereal feel and consist of ice ...
Amid the flowing clouds are red and green hues. Though these high fliers also can be observed at the edge of space above Earth, there are distinct differences between Mars' mother-of-pearl clouds ...
Thus, the studies by Curiosity about such clouds reveal more about Mars' atmosphere; in that, discoveries have been made not only on water-ice clouds but also on those with carbon-dioxide ice ...
While the car-sized spacecraft flew around the Mars system, flight controllers on Earth temporarily lost communication with ...
