A frozen lake on Mars
On Mars there is a frozen body of water the size of the North Sea
, on which one can see large floes of pack ice. The lake was discovered while analyzing high-resolution images taken by the stereocamera HRSC (High-Resolution Stereo Camera) onboard the European spacecraft Mars Express. This is the conclusion of a group of researchers from the imaging team. The head of the researchers is the British geologist John Murray from the Open University in London. [more....]
