Mars was in the ocean!

At one time there was water on Mars in the distant past of one who has been long been scientists. But how much water? US space agency (NASA), a new study is called, "Red Planet" many times more than the amount of water the scientists. In fact, it had been a big part of the vast ocean below. Once upon a time there were no living creatures on the planet who is suitable for the increased support for the concept.According to a study released Thursday in the journal Science, researchers at NASA powerful multiple durabiksanayantrera (telescope) for six years, a variety of chemical elements in the atmosphere of Mars, the symbols are closely monitoring and analysis. Indicated that they received more than 420 million years ago, about one-fifth of the planet's surface area was under water. The total amount of water on the Earth than the Arctic Ocean water.NASA scientists claimed that Mars once had to cover 450 feet deep, liquid level. About half the level of the northern part of the expansion of the welfare. In some areas, water depth was more than a mile. Mars is mostly water (about 87 percent) were lost in space.Scientists at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center and lead author of the research report jeronimo bhilanuyebha the volume of water on Mars once had-he had received a credible estimates. Research in the history of the existence of water on the planet will be able to better idea than ever.Another NASA senior scientist Michael Mama said, after losing a huge amount of water for a long time than the previous concepts of the surface of Mars was wet. Environment as a result of the existence of life may have existed.NASA said the researchers, the new estimates of the amount of water on Mars early age, as well as the presence of two types of water have chemical symbols. Observatory Observatory in Hawaii, USA cakes durabiksanayantra (telescope) and the European Southern Observatory in Chile (ESO) Telescope Detailed observations of Mars, these features have been entified.Scientists estimate there are two kinds of water existed in the atmosphere of Mars. As a common water, which two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen formed. HD is the name of the other, so that takes place in a hydrogen atom deuterium. The water is relatively heavy. According to NASA, the region near the north and south poles of Mars researchers are particularly interested. The areas on the planet baraphacchadita Plenty of water is believed to be the biggest.Mars in the northern part of an ocean existed-for and against the idea that debate for decades. Almost all parts of the planet for the first time a huge amount of data for storage on the basis of the existence of water in the past, the scientists had established a robust estimate. However, there is disagreement among scientists at NASA. And California's Jet Propulsion Laboratory rover project scientist specializing kiuriositi Ashwin bhasabada think about the history of the presence of water on Mars is still not possible to solve. Being mentioned in ancient oceans, the 'hypothesis' remains as limited.Yet many things to learn about Mars' atmosphere remains. NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) in the coming years more and more scientists are investigating robatayana going to Mars. These new instruments will be taken and the 'Red Planet' intensive research on the run.
