In a rapidly evolving landscape of space exploration, President-elect Donald Trump's administration is poised to prioritize Elon Musk's vision of human travel to Mars, insiders reveal.

This strategic pivot is expected to reshape NASA's current Artemis program, leveraging SpaceX's Starship for lunar missions that serve as a precursor for more ambitious Martian voyages. The prospective policy realignment signals a profound shift in America's interstellar aspirations.

Additionally, China's Zhurong rover has contributed significant data suggesting Mars hosted an ocean in its distant past. By studying the geology in Utopia Planitia, the rover has fortified the theory of ancient Martian coastlines, deepening our understanding of the Red Planet's historical climate and environment.
