A mineral trapped within a Martian meteorite that fell to Earth has revealed traces of water on Mars that date back 4.45 billion years, according to new research. The zircon grain may contain the oldest direct evidence of ancient hot water on the red planet, which may have provided environments such as hot springs that are associated with life on Earth.

A recent discovery could change our understanding of Mars and its ability to harbor life in the remote past. Scientists have identified traces of water on the red planet, dated back to 4.450 million years ago, by analyzing a circon grain found in the Martian meteorite 'Black Beauty'. This finding could be the oldest evidence of hot water on Mars and suggests that conditions on the planet could have been life-friendly, similar to the hydrothermal…

More and more close to life on Mars: scientists find a new clue thanks to a Martian meteorite found on Earth in 2011

Scientists have found perhaps the oldest known evidence that warm water once flowed onto the planet Mars. They found that evidence in a grain in an ancient meteorite.

Wetenschappers hebben misschien wel het oudst gekende bewijs gevonden dat er ooit warm water op de planeet Mars stroomde. Dat bewijs vonden ze in een korreltje in een eeuwenoude meteoriet.

Scientists find new evidence of life on Mars after thorough investigation of meteorite that hit Earth

Leslie Livesay is vice director of the Chorro Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), the research center where the largest robotic space missions of the United States space agency are designed. During her nearly 40 years of experience at NASA, this mathematics and engineer has seen the potential of space probes grow since they were shy Martian strollers, such as the 1996 Pathfinder, to the 2018 Perseverance, the largest and most sophisticated exploration …

The discovery supports previous observations that suggest rivers and lakes once existed on the surface of Mars. Evidence has been found in a mineral found inside a meteorite from Mars that indicates that water existed on Mars billions of years ago. CNN reported on the subject. The celestial body “Black Beauty,” discovered in the Sahara in 2011, contains a 4.45 billion-year-old mineral that contains ancient traces of water, according to researche…

Löydös tukee aikaisempia havaintoja, joiden perusteella Marsin pinnalla olisi aikoinaan ollut jokia ja järviä. Marsista peräisin olevan meteoriitin sisältä löytyneestä mineraalista on löydetty todisteita, jotka osoittavat Marsissa olleen vettä miljardeja vuosia sitten. Aiheesta uutisoi CNN. Saharasta vuonna 2011 löydetty taivaankappale ”Black Beauty” sisältää tutkijoiden mukaan 4,45 miljardia vuotta vanhaa mineraalia, jossa on muinaisia jälkiä v…
