NASA spacecraft confirms Water on Mars
Updated at: 0200 PST, Friday, August 01, 2008
MIAMI: NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander spacecraft has confirmed that water exists on Mars, the U.S. space agency said on Thursday.
"We have water," scientist William Boynton of the University of Arizona said in a NASA statement.
"We've seen evidence for this water ice before in observations by the Mars Odyssey Orbiter and in disappearing chunks observed by Phoenix last month, but this is the first time Martian water has been touched and tasted."
