NASA launches twin spacecraft to solve the mystery of Mars lost atmosphere

Mars didnt always look like the barren world we see today. Over billions of years, the Suns solar wind stripped away much of its atmosphere, helping transform it from a warmer, wetter planet into a frozen desert. NASAs twin-spacecraft ESCAPADE mission aims to watch this process in action by measuring how the solar wind interacts with Mars fragile magnetic environment. The findings could reveal how Mars lost its habitability-and help prepare humans for future missions there.
