Mar 16, 2021 · A new study shows that up to 99% of Mars's water did not evaporate into space. Instead, it's still there—held in rocks and soil. ... But the researchers say much of its water—from 30% to a ...
Mar 23, 2021 · The question, then, is where did all that water go? The answer: nowhere. According to new research from Caltech and JPL, a significant portion of Mars’ water—between 30 and 99 percent—is trapped within minerals in the planet’s crust. The research challenges the current theory that the Red Planet’s water escaped into space.
Mar 29, 2021 · Between 30 and 99% of Martian water was sequestered by crustal hydration, ... Previous studies showed that at least some of Mars’ water did leak into space, but the new findings show that much ...
Mar 16, 2021 · 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 99% – is trapped within minerals in the planet’s crust, challenging the current theory that due to the Red Planet’s low gravity, its water escaped into space.
Mar 16, 2021 · New NASA-funded research shows a substantial quantity of its water – between 30 and 99% – is trapped within minerals in the planet’s crust, challenging the current theory that due to the Red Planet’s low gravity, its water escaped into space. Early Mars was thought to have enough water to have covered the whole planet in an ocean ...
