"Without Mars, Earth's orbit would be missing major climate cycles. What would humans and other animals even look like if ...

The findings potentially solve the paradox of how liquid water seems to have persisted on Mars even when the climate grew too ...

At half the size of Earth and one-tenth its mass, Mars is a featherweight as far as planets go. Yet new research reveals the ...

New simulations show Mars plays a key role in shaping Earth’s long-term climate by influencing its orbit and axial tilt over hundreds of thousands to millions of years.

Researchers uncover how Mars affects Earth’s orbit, offering new insight into the planetary forces behind ice ages.

Researchers discovered Mars subtly affects Earth’s orbit and axial tilt. These small changes help trigger ice ages and ...

Why did the ice ages occur? If you need a scapegoat, a new study by Stephen Kane of UC Riverside suggests pointing the finger ...

New climate modeling suggests that small lakes on ancient Mars could have stayed liquid for decades, even in a generally cold environment. Small lakes on early Mars may have stayed in liquid form for ...

Study finds Mars helps pace Earth's ice ages through gravity. Remove Mars, and a major 2.4-million-year climate rhythm ...

New MarsDaily research explains how thin seasonal ice could have allowed ancient Martian lakes to remain liquid for decades, despite a cold early Mars climate ...

Small lakes on ancient Mars may have remained liquid for decades, even with average air temperatures well below freezing.
