Where Did They Go? Buttes on Mars According to previous studies, the majority of Mars' water fled into space when the planet's atmosphere was washed away by the sun's radiation. However, according to a recent report published today in the journal Science and discussed practically at this year's Lunar and Planetary Science Conference, Mars' water underwent both an atmospheric evacuation and a geologic entrapment.
