BRIGHT SIDE | They Finally Found Liquid Water on Mars @BRIGHTSIDEOFFICIAL | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 20 hours ago.
Scientists have finally found liquid water on Mars, and it's a huge deal! Buried under layers of ice near the planet’s south pole, this hidden lake gives hope that life might exist, or at least once existed, on the red planet. The discovery was made using radar data from a Mars orbiter, showing a lake that’s about 12 miles wide. It’s not exactly like the lakes on Earth—it’s super salty, which is why it stays liquid in Mars' freezing temperatures. Still, finding water is a game-changer because water is key to life. Who knows what other secrets Mars might be hiding?
