Water in a warmer region of Mars greatly simplifies our ability to send manned missions
Liquid water on Mars might be a hard thing to catch up with. At zero degrees centigrade it’s ice. At 2 degrees centigrade it boils in the thin martian atmosphere.

Not if it is really really salty....
Then it is 4C
You mean we haven't landed a man on Mars yet??
Has anyone notified Congress?
Sheila Jackson Lee (Democrat)
Member of the U.S. House
of Representatives
from Texas's 18th district
On a visit to the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory in 2005, Jackson Lee made embarrassing news by asking if the Mars Pathfinder had taken an image of the flag planted there in 1969 by Neil Armstrong.[2]
Prior to the 110th Congress, Jackson Lee served on the House Science Committee and on the Subcommittee that oversees space policy and NASA.

Just think, 400 years from now we’ll be drinking fancy bottled water from Mars. Or rich people will anyway.
Why not?
That movie still scares me.
“For a time in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, it was erroneously believed that there were canals on Mars. These were a network of long straight lines in the equatorial regions from 60° N. to 60° S. Lat. on the planet Mars. They were first described by the Italian astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli during the opposition of 1877, and confirmed by later observers. Schiaparelli called these canali, which was translated into English as “canals”.
The Irish astronomer Charles E. Burton made some of the earliest drawings of straight-line features on Mars, although his drawings did not match Schiaparelli’s. By the early 20th century, improved astronomical observations revealed the “canals” to be an optical illusion, and modern high resolution mapping of the Martian surface by spacecraft shows no such features.”

I am so fascinated by the possibilities of life on Mars, forget the life in a mother’s womb headed for abortion, THIS is REAL potential here baby!
I held back posting more graphic pics of the thing breaking through. Glad I did.
As long as the don’t build a desalinization plant....
Budget season for the federal government.

Nice pictures. Didn’t Richard Hoagland make a claim for water seepage on the surface of Mars over 10 years ago? Maybe his mundane “water on the surface of Mars” claim got ignored due to his more spectacular claims that made Art Bell love him?
There have been claims of seeing canals on mars for a long time.
Maybe they were correct, before things dried up for a while.
