In their project, the researchers of New York University Abu Dhabi have combined thousands of images recorded by the United Arab Emirates' "Hope" probe of Mars and created a detailed color map of the entire red planet. They say that these images can be used to record suitable places for future settlements on this planet.

Scientists studying data from China’s Zhurong rover have for the first time found cracked layers on tiny Martian dunes, which imply the Red Planet was a salt-rich watery world as recently as 400,000 years ago.
