On a cold, ancient Mars, thick ice layers protected vast lakes and river systems, providing clues to how water flowed across the Red Planet some 3.6 billion years ago. According to new findings by the Planetary Science Institute, carbon dioxide frozen out of Mars' atmosphere helped create conditions that allowed substantial water flow even without a warmer climate.

In the 1997 film "Contact," based on Carl Sagan's novel, the protagonist Ellie Arroway, played by Jodie Foster, takes a journey via a space-alien-constructed wormhole to the star Vega. What she finds is a scene of swirling debris, with no evident planets. Recent observations seem to affirm the filmmakers' depiction.
