NASA has said it will reveal a major science finding from the agency’s ongoing exploration of Mars.
The US space agency will hold a special news conference at 11:30am ET on Monday, according to a press release of NASA.
The briefing will be broadcast live on NASA Television as well as its website.
A brief question-and-answer session will take place during the event with reporters on site and by phone. Members of the public also can ask questions during the briefing using #AskNASA on Twitter.
Jim Green, director of planetary science at NASA headquarters, will be taking part in Monday's news conference. Michael Meyer, lead scientist for the Mars Exploration Program, and other researchers will be participating as well.
The space agency has said in the past that Mars did have conditions once suitable for life and more exploration could provide clues into whether life remains somewhere on the cold planet.
NASA has plans to send humans to Mars by the 2030s and is currently developing capabilities to make long term space travel possible.
