Aviation Week Exclusive: Water Spotted on Surface of Mars"
Keith Cowing
Monday, December 4, 2006

Editor's note: According to an item first posted by Aviation Week and Space Technology magazine: "NASA is ready to announce major new findings about the presence of water currently emerging onto the surface of Mars.
If confirmed, this would increase the possibility that microbial life could have existed recently or possibly exists now on the Martian surface. The potential seepage of ground water onto or near the surface has been a key area of investigation by the Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft (AW&ST Nov. 27, pp. 53-55).

The MGS spacecraft remains out of contact and is feared lost, as the new Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter also begins the search for evidence of Martian water."

Bush's fault. They're just doing Halliburton's bidding.

Surface temp on Mars can vary from -133 degrees C to +25 degrees C. If it's really H20, that means it's ice some or most of the time.
