Big Sheets of Water Ice on Mars
Sizable deposits of water ice lurk just beneath the surface in some regions of Mars, a new study reports.
The newfound sheets appear to contain distinct layers, suggesting that studying them could shed considerable light on the Red Planet's climate history, researchers said. And the ice is buried by just a few feet of Martian dirt in places, meaning it might be accessible to future crewed missions.
