Mars long ago was wet. You may be surprised where the water went 3 Min Read WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Mars was once a wet world, with abundant bodies of water on its surface. But this changed dramatically billions of years ago, leaving behind the desolate landscape known today. So what happened to the water? Scientists have a new hypothesis.

New Study Challenges Long-Held Theory of Fate of Mars' Water Global View of Mars From Viking Orbiter: This global view of Mars is composed of about 100 Viking Orbiter images.

Billions of years ago, according to geological evidence, abundant water flowed across Mars and collected into pools, lakes, and deep oceans. New NASA-funded research shows a substantial quantity of its water – between 30 and ...

(Photo : NASA on Unsplash) A team of geologists and atmospheric scientists has produced a modern vision of Mars' history by plugging observations of the red planet into new models: Many of the planet's ancient water may have been frozen in crystals in the crust, where it may still be found today. 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...

Mars’ ‘missing’ water may be buried beneath surface AFP, WASHINGTON Mars was once home to lakes and oceans — but where all the water went to transform the planet into the desolate rock we know today has been something of a mystery. Most of it was thought to have been lost to space, but a new study funded by NASA proposes that it did not go anywhere, but is trapped within minerals in the crust. “We’re saying that the crust forms what we call hydrated minerals, so minerals that actually have water in their crystal structure,” said Eva Scheller, lead author of the new paper in Scie...
