This isn’t the famous sample reported last September, but another with different signs of past life we’re struggling to explain.

NASA’s Curiosity rover has uncovered some of the largest organic molecules ever detected on Mars, and scientists say ordinary geology may not fully explain them.

The discovery of the molecules was made with Nasa’s Curiosity rover, which examined a Martian rock named Cumberland. This is ...

Yet another tantalizing clue. The post NASA Running Out of Non-Life Explanations for What Its Rover Found on Mars appeared first on Futurism.

The lab is located on Saadiyat Island, which is close to the long, pale shoreline where the Gulf air lingers long after ...

This week in science: Mysterious molecules on Mars are tricky to explain without life; a compound that cuts cholesterol as a daily oral pill; an experimental new treatment for sleep apnea has a 93 ...

Scientists studying a rock sample collected by NASA’s Curiosity rover have uncovered something tantalizing: the largest ...

The development of molecules to study and treat disease is becoming increasingly burdened by the time and specificity required to analyze the vast amounts of data generated by synthesizing large ...

There are no simple solutions on the Martian surface. It is the kind of environment where you would expect molecules to decompose rather than endure—dusty, ...

NASA's Curiosity rover has detected long-chain organic molecules, alkanes, in an ancient Martian lake bed. Scientists argue these findings are difficult to explain through non-biological processes ...

Scientists have leveraged fundamental features of chemical building blocks to transform chemical reaction analysis from minutes to milliseconds. The development of molecules to study and treat disease ...
