Mars Shows Signs Of Water

Nasa pictures have reviled signs of flowing water on Mars, a sequence of images show tendrils (the kind made by water) several meters wide, these emerge from rocky outcrops and look to be made of thawing mud, say researchers.

"It's hard to imagine they are formed by anything other than fluid seeping down slopes," said Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Project Scientist Richard Zurek of Nasa's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, but they appear when it's still too cold for fresh water.
"Their results are consistent with the presence of large and extensive underground salty lakes on Mars." says Professor Shiladitya DasSara. Could halophilic microbes survive on Mars? The professor is excited at eh possibility.
