NASA's Curiosity rover has captured images of a coral-like rock formation on Mars, estimated to be several billion years old. This discovery suggests the presence of ancient water on the planet, providing new insights into Mars' geological and possibly hydrological history. The rock's shape has attracted scientific interest due to its resemblance to coral reefs on Earth, which typically form in aquatic environments. Meanwhile, research on Earth highlights the ecological impact of Greenland's ice melt, which has been found to stimulate marine life by promoting nutrient mixing in fjords. An international team led by glaciologist Dominik Gräff from the University of Washington and ETH Zürich reported that iceberg calving accelerates glacier retreat and enhances water mixing. Additionally, discoveries in the Pacific Ocean include the filming of a previously unseen deep-sea creature at a depth of 7 kilometers, expanding understanding of life in extreme environments. These findings collectively contribute to ongoing studies of planetary and oceanic ecosystems, both on Earth and beyond.
