| Mars Southern Ice Cap (PD) |
This “something”
was detected via “low
frequency radio pulses” from MARSIS (Mars
Advanced Radar for Subsurface
and Ionosphere Sounding). It might be
a lake that lies 4,921 feet below the southern ice cap. Or not. It could instead
be a huge mud puddle.
In any
event, it might contain enough water for
life to exist. Microbial life on Earth has
been known to survive under seemingly
similar conditions.
Scientists
suspect that Mars might be harboring many
such potential “pockets” of life. Just think: If one’s been discovered, how many others
haven’t?
