NASA has confirmed the existence of ice on Mars, the first time water has been found on another planet confirming years of speculation as to the possiblity of water on the Red Planet. As the awful movie Semi-Pro says every four seconds, “Get excited!”
And, as Bloomberg so kindly reminds us, “Water in liquid form is an essential ingredient for life.” Thanks, Bloomberg. Pretty sure anyone with a grade school education knows that.
Yes, the Phoenix probe that landed on the red planet a few weeks ago did, in fact, turn up what it was looking for the whole time: ice.
NASA scientists believe that more than one-fourth of Mars has ice below the surface.
Tremendous, ice on Mars. Now we wait for little green men to attack us.
