NASA'S PICTURE FOR THIS DAY

COSMIC MESSAGE

Water on Mars is crucial for understanding its geologic history and the potential for past or future life. Many missions have photographed the Martian surface, and some images might hold subtle clues to water that have been missed. By carefully inspecting these images, applying scientific principles, and using existing knowledge, we can continue the search for water on the Red Planet. This search helps us piece together the planet's story.
