China News Service, March 18. According to the Russian Satellite Network, according to the news published on the website of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Jet Propulsion Laboratory, American scientists at the California Institute of Technology believe that there may be a large amount of water under the crust of Mars.
On March 8, local time, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration released the traces of the "Perseverance" rover achieving Mars walking.
The new research funded by NASA found that a large amount of water on this red planet may be trapped in the earth's crust instead of all "escaping" into space.
This new research challenges the long-held theory that Martian water may have evaporated into space.
Study participant Eva Scheller said at the 52nd Lunar and Planetary Science Conference: "The water lost through the atmosphere does not fully explain the data we have about how much water actually exists on Mars. "
Researchers calculated based on data obtained from previous missions to Mars that water loss on Mars occurs through two mechanisms-water loss through the atmosphere and minerals in the Martian crust to collect water.
