Water Flowing on Mars Today on This Week @NASA – October 2, 2015
A major scientific discovery was announced by NASA at a Sept. 28 news conference. From its vantage point high above the Martian surface, NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) spacecraft has found the strongest evidence yet, that under certain circumstances, liquid water has been found on Mars. Researchers say an imaging spectrometer on MRO detected signatures of hydrated minerals on slopes where downhill streaks, known as Recurring Slope Lineae (RSL) are seen. In the past, RSL flows have been described as possibly related to liquid water. But the new findings of hydrated minerals is key evidence. Hydrated salts can lower the freezing point of liquid brine – and produce liquid water.

Why not colonize the moon first? it's alot closer
Ioosoble Robos and reproduction robos in mars its life hight
This is indian water…
blood moon was sweet
🙂
I don't know what has happened to the comments section recently, full of tinfoil hat people… Anyway good discoveries NASA 🙂
Hey NASA can you send Obama to Mars? Let him be the King of Mars? PLEEEASE!!!!?
why are people so mean to nasa? This isnt just confirmed by nasa but many other scientists
Ever single NASA video I've watched always have the best conversation war in the comments. Now, I'll just need to get my popcorn and scroll through the comments below me.
I guess the Martin Movie needs to change its script.
how can there be liquid water if atmospheric pressure is 1% of earth at sea level. Wont the water just vaporize after melting?
1:23 please not during science time. @_@
I like the video showing waterfall on mars
🙂
+NASA Why is it that scientists think brine-water will last billions of years in the surface soil of Mars, but while clean water vanished the same billions of years ago…?
