Description:
|
Long believed to have been cold, dead and dry for aeons, there is now stiking new proof that not only was Mars a relatively warm and wet place in geologically recent times, but that even today there are vast reserves of water frozen beneath the planet's surface. As well as casting fascinating new insights into Mars's past, this discovery is also forcing a complete rethink about the mechanisms of global planetary change.
