NASA Ends MAVEN After 11 Years Studying Mars

NASA concluded that MAVEN cannot be recovered after losing communications in December 2025.
The orbiter spent 11 years at Mars, far beyond its original one-year mission.
MAVEN transformed understanding of how solar activity stripped away the Martian atmosphere.

NASA’s MAVEN mission appears lost after 11 years at Mars

The supplied source text says NASA has declared MAVEN unrecoverable.
MAVEN was a long-running Mars mission focused on atmospheric evolution.
Losing an 11-year orbiter would end a valuable stream of long-term Mars observations.
The candidate metadata and source text conflict, so the article stays tightly limited to supported claims.

MAVEN reached Mars in September 2014 and began its scheduled one-year mission to study the planet's atmosphere. It lasted 11 years, and in 2023 it witnessed a coronal mass ejection strike Mars' atmosphere. Because of that serendipitious observation, scientists saw how the unmagnetized planet was still able to deflect some of the solar wind.

Mars can still deflect solar wind without a global magnetosphere

MAVEN observed Mars during a 2023 coronal mass ejection.
Researchers say Mars’ ionosphere can produce a solar-wind-deflecting effect.
The finding could influence models of atmospheric loss and habitability.

After 11 years at Mars, NASA's MAVEN spacecraft went out with a whisper

NASA ends recovery effort for MAVEN after months of silence at Mars

NASA has ceased efforts to search for and recover the MAVEN spacecraft.
MAVEN vanished after a routine occultation behind Mars on December 6.
The orbiter had worked at Mars for 11 years after arriving in 2014.

MAVEN Detects Plasma Squeeze in Mars’ Upper Atmosphere

MAVEN observed the Zwan-Wolf effect at Mars during a December 2023 solar storm.
Mars lacks a global magnetic field, so the effect appeared in the ionosphere.
The finding expands understanding of how solar wind shapes planetary atmospheres.

Deadly Iran school strike casts shadow over Pentagon’s AI targeting push

Iran School Strike Exposes Cracks in Pentagon's AI Targeting Push

A Tomahawk strike generated by Maven Smart System killed 168 people at an Iranian school due to a stale targeting database
Maven's overall accuracy is approximately 60%, well below the 84% achieved by human analysts under similar conditions
The Pentagon is pressing ahead with a mandatory Maven rollout across all military branches by September despite the investigation findings
