Mars a Water World?

Sounds good to me:

Levin points to Opportunity imagery that offers conclusive proof of standing liquid water and running water on a cold Mars.

Other images show the rover tracks clearly are being made in “mud”, with water being pressed out of that material, Levin said. “That water promptly freezes and you can see reflecting ice. That’s clearly ice. It could be nothing else,” he said, “and the source is the water that came out of the mud.”

As for the spherical objects found at the Opportunity site, Levin has a thought.

“I wonder on Mars if it can rain upwards,” he said. The idea is that subsurface water comes up through the soils and then freezes when it gets to the surface.

“Maybe these little spherules form just like raindrops form up above,” Levin explained.

Levin said that brine on Mars is a code word for liquid water. He senses that great care is being taken by rover scientists because the liquid water issue starts the road to life.

“That’s the monument that they are afraid to erect without real due process,” Levin concluded.
