Mars missing water is buried beneath surface: study

Published March 17, 2021, 8:40 AM Billions of years ago, Mars was home to lakes and oceans but where all the water went to transform the planet into the desolate rock we know today has been something of a mystery. This NASA image released on March 5, 2021, was captured while NASA’s Perseverance rover drove on Mars for the first time on March 4, 2021. (Photo by – / NASA/JPL-CALTECH / AFP/ FILE PHOTO) Most of it was thought to have been lost to space, but a new study funded by NASA proposes that it didn’t go anywhere but is trapped within minerals in the crust. “We’re saying that the crust forms what we call hydrated minerals, so minerals that actually have water in their crystal structure,” Eva Scheller, lead author of the new paper in Science, told AFP.

For as long as we can remember Mars has always been the “red” planet. The red dirt and rock that makes up the planet’s surface have always given desert wasteland vibes. But scientists believe Mars was once brimming with water and now they may know where it all went.

Mars landing: Riveting video from the Red Planet What happened to the water? We re saying that the crust forms what we call hydrated minerals, so minerals that actually have water in their crystal structure, Eva Scheller, lead author of the paper in Science magazine told AFP news agency.  Mars is believed to to have once had enough water to cover the whole planet, to a depth of anything from around 100 to 1,500 meters (330 to 44,920 feet). As the planet lost its magnetic field, the atmosphere was stripped away and led to the loss of water. The study suggests that anywhere between 30 to 99 percent of the arid planet s initial water could be stored in the crust.
