Mars is often depicted as a dry and dusty wasteland, but recent discoveries suggest it may have once held a vast ocean. Scientists believe they've found a colossal "fingerprint" etched into the Martian surface, hinting at a time when water flowed freely across the Red Planet.
The discovery of Ares Valles adds to the growing body of evidence that Mars may have once been a much wetter and potentially more habitable world. Does the idea of a watery past for Mars pique your curiosity? If Mars once had a global ocean, what might have happened to all that water? Could there be any remnants of this ancient ocean trapped underground, perhaps harboring microbial life forms?

Mars having had an ocean is so fascinating, right? 
Imagine all the secrets the Red Planet might hold. Do you think there could still be hidden pockets of water or even microbial life under the surface?
