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.
There are literal oceans' worth of liquid water hiding out on Mars. There's just one big problem. That water is actually in Mars, at depths that are too far below the surface for us to access.
If Mars’ crust is similar across the planet, there may be more water within the mid-crust zone than the “volumes proposed to have filled hypothesized ancient Martian oceans,” the authors ...
There might be a hidden ocean's worth of liquid water below the surface of Mars, seismic evidence suggests. According to a new paper published April 25 in the journal National Science Review ...
But that wet period ended more than 3 billion years ago, after Mars lost its atmosphere. Planetary scientists on Earth have sent many probes and landers to the planet to find out what happened to that ...
Scientists know that millions of years ago, Mars was covered in oceans, but the planet lost its water over time and now has virtually no liquid water on its surface. Now, though, researchers have ...
In the study published in Nature Astronomy, the scientists explained that the clay deposits rich in minerals formed when Mars ...
Terraforming Mars could be as easy as one, two, three, we proclaim, reclined in our cushy very-much-on-Earth armchairs.
We were pretty sure even before the first lander grounded on Mars, the red colour of the planet is due to a lot of iron oxide in the rocks and sands making up its surface.
