Bright reflections that radar detected beneath the south pole of Mars may not be underground lakes as previously thought but deposits of clay instead, a new study finds.
For decades, scientists have suspected that water lurks below the polar ice caps of Mars, just as it does here on Earth.
1 year after launch, NASA's Perseverance rover prepares to collect 1st sample on Mars | Space
The car-size robot and its little partner, the Ingenuity helicopter, launched toward the Red Planet one year ago today (July 30) and touched down inside the 28-mile-wide (45 kilometers) Jezero Crater on Feb. 18.
Six weeks after landing, Ingenuity deployed from Perseverance's belly and began a monthlong technology-demonstrating flight campaign, which the rover supported and documented.
Mystery radar signals from Mars are not of water: Something else is brewing on Red Planet -
Now, some scientists think that the radar signals that suggested the presence of water in these lakes located deep under the surface could be emerging from clays, and not water.
In 2018, a team led by Roberto Orosei of Italy's Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica announced evidence suggesting the existence of subsurface lakes deep below the ice cap at Mars' south pole.

China's Zhurong Mars rover scopes out dunes on journey south | Space
China's Zhurong rover has quietly clocked up 1,900 feet (585 meters) of driving on Mars and has been using its science instruments to check out nearby geologic features in Utopia Planitia.
Zhurong's latest exploits have seen it analyze dunes amid the local rocky Martian terrain and visit the backshell and parachute that helped the rover land safely on the Red Planet.
Mars Hope Views Elysium Planetia On Mars - SpaceRef
This photo was taken on March 15, 2021, by the digital exploration camera (EXI) of the Hope Probe, from a height of up to 1325 km above Mars, and the image shows the volcano area known as (Elysium Planetia) - Elysium Planitia) Resolution up to 145 m / pixel.
Near the center of this photo, a 150 km dark wind chain is forming, shown in this color because it carried dark sands formed by stripping volcano deposits from the adjacent pit floor (shock nozzle) diameter of 25 How much.
Japan space center joins push to settle Mars and beyond
TOKYO -- Like something out of a science-fiction movie, a mysterious, strangely shaped structure rises up from a barren red desert. Inside, buildings stand on tracts of green, grassy land and boats sail across vivid blue water -- all on near-vertical walls.
The center was established amid a wave of renewed interest in space travel, with projects like NASA's Artemis program aspiring to send the U.S.'s first crewed flight to the moon since the Apollo missions, and the recent flights by Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic and Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin.
Mars wins Swant Graber 40 at Rice Lake Speedway | Free | apg-wi.com
Jimmy Mars passed veteran racer Steve Laursen with 10 laps to go for the lead and then would go on to win the Swant Graber Motors 40 Saturday night at the Rice Lake Speedway.
Seventeen cars took the green flag for the 40-lap main event and the first 31 laps went nonstop as the racers tore around the ⅓ mile oval. Laursen started on the outside pole and got the early lead as he rode the banking past Sam Mars, Jimmy's son, to take the initial lead.
