Mars wasn't always the cold, dry world we see today. Billions of years ago, it had a much thicker atmosphere and may even have hosted rivers and lakes. But something changed and the planet has been slowly losing its atmosphere ever since. In this video, we explore why Mars is still "leaking" into space, how the Sun continues to strip away its atmosphere, and why NASA launched the ESCAPADE mission to witness this process in real time.
