Reservoir of liquid water found deep in Martian rocks (www.bbc.com)

Scientists have discovered a reservoir of liquid water on Mars - deep in the rocky outer crust of the planet.

The findings come from a new analysis of data from Nasa’s Mars Insight Lander, which touched down on the planet back in 2018.

The lander carried a seismometer, which recorded four years' of vibrations - Mars quakes - from deep inside the Red Planet.

Analysing those quakes - and exactly how the planet moves - revealed "seismic signals" of liquid water.

I've seen this episode of doctor who.

Do not use that water, do not drink it, don't use it for growing food, just stay as far away from it as possible.
