Dust devils on Mars? NASA’s Perseverance rover spotted swirling columns near Jezero Crater, complete with electrical activity that could offer new clues about the Red Planet’s atmosphere and future exploration. 🌪️ | AccuWeather

A strong X1.9 solar flare erupted from the sun's surface at 9:49 p.m. ET on Nov. 30, and NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory caught it in action. The flare appears as a bright flash on the Sun’s edge, followed by a plume of hot material rising into space. Solar flares are powerful bursts of energy. They can disturb radio communications, affect navigation signals, and pose risks to spacecraft and astronauts — which is why NASA and NOAA track them so closely. Credit: NASA/SDO | NASA 360

We’ve been exploring Mars for decades with orbiters, landers and rovers that have driven tens of kilometers across its surface and mapped the planet in incredible detail. This video breaks down how far we’ve actually traveled on Mars, how much of it we’ve mapped from orbit, and what we now know about its water, climate and potential for life. #Mars #MarsRover #SpaceExploration #SpaceEves | SpaceEve
