The Atacama Desert is by far the driest and oldest desert on Earth, showing a unique combination of environmental extremes (extreme dryness, the highest UV radiation levels on Earth and highly saline and oxidizing soils), explaining why the Atacama has been largely investigated as a Mars analog model for almost twenty years. Based on the source and the amount of water available for life and its analogy with Mars, two ecosystems are of interest in the Atacama; its Coastal Range and the much drier hyperarid core, which we here review in detail. Members of the three domains of life have been foun...

NASA gets first weather report from the Jerezo Crater Mars Stacy Liberatore For Dailymail.com © Provided by Daily Mail MailOnline logo NASA has shared the first weather report from Jezero Crater on Mars – and the once ancient lake appears to experience frigid temperatures. The Mars Environmental Dynamics Analyzer (MEDA) system aboard the Perseverance rover captured the surrounded temperatures for 30 minutes February 19 at around 10:25pm ET. The data shows that it was just below -4F on the surface when MEDA turned on, but dropped to -14F 30 minutes later. MEDA is designed ...

NASA’s First Weather Report From Jezero Crater on Mars Perseverance’s MEDA will help us understand how to prepare astronauts for a future on the Red Planet. The weather often plays a role in our daily plans. You might put on a light jacket when the forecast calls for a cool breeze or delay your travel plans because of an impending storm. NASA engineers use weather data to inform their plans, too, which is why they’re analyzing the conditions millions of miles away on Mars. The Mars Environmental Dynamics Analyzer (MEDA)...

That temperature plummeted to minus 14 degrees Fahrenheit within a half-hour, according to a Tuesday release. In addition, the MEDA radiation and dust sensor showed that the crater was experiencing a clearer atmosphere than the Martian Gale Crater around 2,300 miles away. The MEDA pressure sensors also noted that the pressure on Mar was within a predictable range of 718 Pascals. While NASA has a relative understanding of the Mars climate, also receiving data from the InSight lander's Temperature and Win senors (TWINS), predicting dust storms and dust lifting will help aid future exploration...
