Mission controllers were anxiously awaiting confirmation Wednesday that a tiny European craft had landed on Mars as part of an ambitious quest with Russia to find evidence of life on the Red Planet.

Mysterious dark material on the surface of Jupiter's moon Europa is likely sea salt from a subsurface ocean, darkened by exposure to radiation, researchers from the U.S. space agency NASA suggested Tuesday.
Glaciers hidden under Mars' surface dust may have surprisingly lots of water that is enough to cover the entire planet, new research has found.
Probe Philae made a historical landing on a comet on Wednesday, but its conditions remained unclear. Scientists said the probe might had bounced while touching down.
In space, the Chang'e will face some major challenges.The probe is expected to descend slowly to about 100 m above the moon's surface, and move horizontally on its own, avoiding obstacles before landing. During this phase, it will scan and analyze the surface automatically without human control from the Earth.
British researchers said Wednesday they have discovered two subglacial lakes 800 meters below the Greenland ice sheet. While nearly 400 lakes have been detected beneath the Antarctic ice sheets, these are the first to be identified in Greenland, according to researchers from the University of Cambridge, who used airborne radar measurements to reveal the lakes.
