By tracking how fast the dust devils moved, the researchers found wind speeds of up to 44 m/s, or 158 km/h. This is faster than we've ever measured with rovers on the ground—though it's worth noting ...

For two decades, images from European spacecraft have captured bits of unremarkable digital noise as they photograph Mars. Now, scientists have turned that noise into a breakthrough, cataloging 1,039 ...

(CNN) — Twenty years’ worth of imagery captured by two orbiters circling Mars has revealed raging winds on the red planet. Wind on the barren planet would be invisible if it weren’t for Mars’ iconic ...

WASHINGTON, Oct 8 (Reuters) - Two decades of observations by a pair of orbiting spacecraft have enabled scientists to track the whirlwinds called "dust devils" that regularly pirouette across the ...

It confirms that although dust devils are found all over Mars, even on its towering volcanoes, lots are swept up from certain "source regions." For example, many were clustered in Amazonis Planitia ...
