- Last week, NASA's Mars Reconnaisance Orbiter (MRO) spoted rocks from a Martian area called Nili Fossae that may contain fosilized life, as they are very similar to Stromatolites, rocky formations from Pilbara, Australia, that were created by the activity of some of the earliest life forms on Earth.
- This week, the MRO rebooted and put itself in safe mode for an unknown reason, but it's back online.
- Meanwhile, Italian astrophysicists stated during the European Congress of Planetary Science that Phobos (one of the two Martian moons, being the other one Deimos) may have been originated from an asteroid impact with Mars and that is not a meteorite captured by the red planet, as it was previously thought.
Mars.
