NASA just announced they found liquid water on Mars! Before they found strong evidence of organic compounds and now they just found liquid water. This is as close to discovering life as we can get without actually discovering it! One step closer! This has to be one of the most exciting discoveries in space exploration in years. Great work NASA!
Edit: This also makes the possibility of a Mars colony a lot easier! One step closer from expanding from 1 planet to 2!
Edit: NASA believe the water is probably very salty. That's most likely the only way liquid water could exist.
[spoiler]That means we can actually say the forums are salty like the water on Mars!!![/spoiler]
Edit: I'm reading news about it as its coming out. Some scientists are think that terraforming Mars could be easier and faster if we have a source of liquid water! THIS IS HUGE!
Edit: More than 1100 comments! Very cool!
Our solar system is but a grain of sand in an endless sea of aw and wonder and yet we as humans have only begun to open the door to a universe filled with infinite possibilities. Being the most intelligent species in a solar system is like being the king of a chair. It means nothing, and yet it is everything we know.
[b][u]TL;DR[/u][/b]: NASA made a huge discovery by finding proof of liquid water on Mars which is a perfect environment for life.

I'm hoping they find life on mars someday but I really hope that if we don't find life it's not because of the fermi paradox.

YES!!!! I hope they will find some kind of microorganisms. I bet if we find life, that it will look very similar to the life here.

We don't deserve a second chance. We did this to ourselves. High iq's go to Mars. Rest wallow in their own shit! :)

We won't ever be able to live on Mars. Yes finding liquid on Mars is amazing, unfortunately all of the soil is toxic, therefor uninhabitable

Its only a matter of time they will as well anoumce that there is a flying ball coming our way so I will see you guys in the future and get ready to be tea baged in the crucible

NASA: we've found water on Mars! Murcia: so what?! NASA: we've found oil on Mars! Murcia: Let's divert all of our taxes to space travel and Mars!

由Hollow編輯: 9/29/2015 2:26:30 AMSeeing as water came from comets and space itself it's not as surprising as the fact we actually found some seeing we are light minutes(182 light seconds-had to look it up I'm ashamed) away from Mars and still are learning a ton about the universe! The fact we can make missions this far away and obtain physical data is huge, what a find!
