Red Planet May Be Better Known as the Wet One. 9/28/09
New York Times
This article talks about the amazing discovery of ice water on Mars. When scientists studied photos from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter when they noticed the surface had power burns, which was left by a meteorite that stuck Mars in the first few months of last year. These tiny burns or craters, which were between 1.5 to 8 feet deep, contained blotches, which scientist later realized was ice.
I thought this article was very interesting because I have always loved space. The article gave me a lot of information and what I found the most interesting was how much they actually knew about the ice water on Mars. I would like to know how much water there is and if, in the future, it is usable.
