Definitive evidence has been found of shorelines on Mars. Scientists at the University of Colorado-Boulder have found indications of a deep, ancient lake on the Red Planet which could have been home to ancient forms of primitive life.
A University of Colorado-Boulder research team says it has discovered the first definitive evidence of shorelines on Mars. The scientists, led by researcher Gaetano Di Achille, said the finding is an indication of a deep, ancient lake, with implications for the discovery of past life on the Red Planet."

What to make of this? The fact that we have all known, Mars was Earthlike, but something changed it to the barren wasteland it is now. Just think, Mars of the distant past, you might have been able to walk the surface, drink the water and breath the air. There are too many unanswered questions that will be answered with manned exploration.

What to make of this? Is anyone really satisfied with some of the scientific explanations about what happened to the water on Mars? Martin Dugan has even suggested that perhaps the absence of water lines in some parts of the planet is because the water actually was above those high places, indicating true oceans. Considering the volume of water that must have existed, where did it go? Where is it now?
