The Red Planet Might Have Water Deep Underground Its Surface

Last year, scientists have made an incredible discovery in which they had found a steady body of liquid water on the Red Planet. New research takes the finding of 2018 to one step ahead and the study suggests that the water believed to be accountable for dark streaks on the Mars that might be forming from well that is present below the surface of the planet. The new study put out in Nature Geoscience shows that the recurring slope lineae could have a profound underground source and not have movements of water moreover on or just beneath the surface of the Red Planet, as earlier thought.

As per the co-author, Essam Heggy, the findings may not be true. The team has proposed another theory that they have created from a profound pressed groundwater source which approaches to the surface of the planet by moving upward along the ground cracks. According to the lead author, Abotalib, by researching the deserts on our planet, the scientists were able to propose the same which is true for our cosmic neighbor, Mars. Abotalib added that the team gathered data from their research in desert hydrology and it was the keystone in getting this conclusion. He also stated that team has seen the same mechanisms in the Arabian Peninsula and in the North African Sahara and it facilitated them to discover the same mechanism on the Red Planet.

In the abstract of their study, the researchers wrote that the spatial relationship between multi-scale fractures and recurring slope lineae home areas in the Valles Marineris and in the southern mid-latitudes shows that the recurring slope lineae if at all possible originates from impact-related fractures and tectonic. They added that the deep groundwater rarely surfaces on the Red Planet in current-day conditions. The scientists were able to gaze at the images from Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter of NASA, which detected the RSL eight years back. From there, the researchers looked at three particular streaks and craters in the Valles Marineris complex and detected a link between the faults and RSL.
