“Welcome to the latest Mars exploration update! In July 2024, NASA’s Perseverance rover discovered a rock that might hint at ancient microbial life on Mars. Meanwhile, an international fleet of nine spacecraft is buzzing around Mars, with NASA’s Curiosity rover making headlines for its methane spike and ancient water ripples. InSight has also been busy, recording the first Marsquake and revealing a molten core, while detecting an impact with ice. The Opportunity rover’s mission ended in July 2021 after nearly 15 years, and a global dust storm swept across Mars in 2018. Recent maps of water ice and an interactive globe of Mars continue to enhance our exploration efforts. Stay tuned for more incredible updates from the Red Planet!”
