Hmm.. Wonder..
If Mars had liquid surface water at some point, what caused it to cease being liquid and retreat to ice caps?

The atmosphere is nearly gone, too. Also half the crust has disappeared. Probably a huge asteroid impact, same thing that happened to earth and created the moon while excavating the Pacific Ocean basin and the same thing that will happen eventually to earth again and end this picnic.
