In 2013, NASA's Curiosity rover detected organic compounds in Martian rock samples, prompting further investigation into their implications for the planet's history.

In late 2018, the European Space Agency's Mars Express orbiter gathered exciting radar data suggesting the presence of liquid water beneath Mars' south polar ice cap.

Earth's geology is uniquely characterised, within the solar system, by its layered differentiation and active plate tectonics, facilitating ongoing crustal recycling.

Since 2000, evidence for Mars having contained liquid water on its surface has been well documented, with the extent to which this has been the case still being a debate today.

NASA's lander InSight reveals details about the internal structure of Mars, from crust to core.
