Editorial scope: This independent guide explains verification methods and does not publish or route readers to a claimed Mars Market URL, mirror, onion or transaction destination.
Redirects explain where a request moved at a particular time; they do not by themselves establish whether the final destination is authoritative.
Capture every hop
Record the starting hostname, status code, Location value and final response for a normal request.
A chain should be reviewed as a sequence rather than as one simplified destination.
Notice cross-domain changes
A move to another registered domain is a material event that deserves its own source and ownership review.
Permanent status codes express a preference, not proof of a relationship.
Review principle: Treat every Mars Market address claim as time-bound evidence. Do not publish or follow a destination until its source, role and current context are independently documented.
Publish only the finding
Describe the observed redirect behavior and review date without turning it into a destination recommendation.
This protects the difference between technical observation and editorial verification.
