By Lisa Grossman Verified| Science News Verified As the Mars rover Perseverance crested the top of Witch Hazel Hill, its operators back on Earth expected amazing things. This area on the western rim of the Jezero crater, along an ancient river delta that Perseverance has been exploring since it landed in 2021, is thought to contain some of the oldest rocks on the planet’s surface. The light-toned, layered materials promise a record of a wetter time, possibly one that hosted life.
By Carolyn Wilke Verified, Stephen Ornes Verified, Lisa Grossman Verified, Sarah Zielinski Verified| Science News Explores Verified Smartphones are helping chart an erratic region of Earth’s atmosphere that can mess with navigation systems and other tech. That region is the ionosphere — a sea of charged particles on the edge of outer space. There, the sun’s radiation cooks gases in the air. This rips electrons off neutral atoms and molecules, creating free-roaming charged particles. Levels of these charged particles shift with changing sunlight and solar activity.
