Water has also left marks on Mars’ surface. A team in the US is looking for further evidence of an ancient ocean by searching for a set of bedforms, typically found in the deep-sea floor on Earth, on the Martian surface. Researchers in the Netherlands are looking for water signatures left on the surface much more recently, in the last few millions of years, during times when snow was widespread in the planet’s midlatitudes and was able to melt on some crater slopes.
