Vast Underground Water Reservoirs Discovered on Mars

New research reveals significant liquid water deposits deep beneath the Martian surface, offering insights into the planet's past and potential for life.

NASA's InSight mission detected water up to 20 kilometers underground using seismic data.
Researchers believe the mid-crust could hold enough water to cover Mars in a 1-2 kilometer deep ocean.
Water on Mars is also found in polar ice caps, transient frost, and atmospheric vapor.
The discovery challenges previous assumptions that Mars lost most of its water to space.
Accessing this deep water poses significant challenges for future exploration missions.
