Impact craters on Venus revealed by new research
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Oct 29, 2024
Researchers have discovered what may be a long-hidden record of ancient impact craters on Venus, shedding light on a planetary history distinct from Earth's. Unlike Earth, where wind, water, and tectonic shifts obscure impact sites, Venus shows fewer such processes, leaving some of the Solar System's most pristine craters. However, the planet still lacks the giant impact basins seen on the Moon

Perseverance surveys its path as it ascends Jezero Crater
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Oct 29, 2024
NASA's Perseverance rover is navigating a challenging climb up Jezero Crater's western slope, aiming to reach the rim by early December. During the ascent, the rover captured a panoramic view of Jezero's interior along with images of its own tracks, left as its wheels encountered slippage on the slope.
The image, composed of 44 frames taken on Sept. 27, Perseverance's 1,282nd Martian day,
