Beachfront Property… on Mars!
This photo looks like a typical aerial shot over a serene beach in Tahiti. Except visitors to this "beach" would freeze in Mars -63° C (-81° F) atmosphere.
NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) captured images on Mars that suggest the Holden Crater shown in this picture once contained a calm body of water that could have harbored life.
There is still no conclusive evidence that life once existed on Mars, but this is one more clue to investigate in our continual search for life on other planets and perhaps warrants a future Mars Rover mission.
