Liquid Water on Mars ,... Today



This recent photo has caused a bit of controversy. But it seems that what it is showing is liquid water on the landing legs of the Phoenix. This evidence suggests that water likely exists on the planet in liquid form in various places. And we all know that it is another piece in finding life there. The salinity of the water must be very high in order to remain a liquid. But with the recent revelation and discovery of methane accompanied with liquid water, the red planet is becoming more and more intriguing. When are we going there??
