Seismic data collected by NASA suggests the amount of water hidden in the red planet's crust would cover its surface in a global ocean. Evidence is mounting that a secret lies beneath the dusty red ...

"We calculated the “aquifer layer” on Mars could hold enough water to cover the planet in a global ocean 520–780m deep," said Tkalčić. "Several times as much water as is held in Antarctica ...

A LOST Martian ocean may be hiding beneath the red planet's surface. Today Mars is a cold and dry desert – but it may have been covered in rivers, lakes, and seas around four billion years ago.

There might be a hidden ocean's worth of liquid water below the surface of Mars, seismic evidence suggests. According to a new paper published April 25 in the journal National Science Review ...
