Mars could hide a huge water reserve in the formation of Medusae Fossae (MFF), near its equator.
This ice -rich warehouse could be the largest water tank known in this part of the planet Mars, with an estimated volume comparable to that of the Red Sea on Earth.
If melting, it has the potential to flood the entire planet, say scientists, notes Noi.md with reference to.
Recent data suggest that the underground water tank extends to 3.7 km deep – much more than previously believed.
MFF has long intrigued scientists due to its unusual size and composition. Stretching hundreds of kilometers and rising at times over a kilometer, it marks the transition between the northern plains and the southern mountains of the planet Mars.
His deposits rich in dust, which were carved by the wind in striking, influenced the atmosphere of the planet for millions of years. Scientists suspect that under this layer is a vast ice warehouse.
