Any trace of water would be a stunning discovery! Of course, that means 914s would rust there too.

Keep us posted!

So wonder how much longer until we find life there? Seems to me with liquid water and other elements so similar to earth that the planet is ripe for life forms of some kind. Maybe some form of alien bacteria.

looks like if the water is acidic enought, it could easily stay fluid underground even in todays conditions. apparently, some regions have very active "flows" of water bursting out of cliffs and crater walls from time to time creating small flash-floods.

the two they imaged had about the volume of 3-5 swimming pools of water each ...

That's it, I'm moving. There's nothing like getting in on the ground floor. A baja 914 should do the trick. Anyone else coming? It can't be any hotter than Vegas.

A pile of rusty metal with a few flecks of blue and a small piece of metal with some numbers that start with 474.
