Using seismic activity to probe the interior of Mars, geophysicists have found evidence for a large underground reservoir of liquid water—enough to fill oceans on the planet's surface. The data ...

For decades, scientists have theorized about how Mars reached its current state. Many believe that the Red Planet's surface ...

Future astronauts exploring Mars would encounter a whole host of challenges if they tried to access the water, because it’s located between 7 and 12 miles (11.5 and 20 kilometers) beneath the ...

Volume of Water: If the findings are representative of Mars globally, there could be enough water to cover the entire planet in a layer about 1 to 2 kilometers deep. This volume suggests that Mars ...

More than 3 billion years ago, Mars was warm, wet, and had an atmosphere that could have supported life. This artist's rendering shows what the planet may have looked like with global oceans based ...

Future astronauts exploring Mars would encounter a whole host of challenges if they tried to access the water, because it’s located between 7 and 12 miles (11.5 and 20 kilometers) beneath the ...

Deep beneath the surface of Mars lies a large reservoir of liquid water, according to seismometer data from NASA’s retired InSight lander. The findings, published Aug. 12 in Proceedings of the ...

Water has been detected on Mars that could harbor life 12 miles beneath the surface, according to new research. Seismic data from NASA's Insight Lander indicates deep, porous rock filled with ...
