ScienceNow : Apart from two wandering rovers, there’s not much going on the martian surface these days. In fact, scientists believe the planet has been relatively dead for the past 3.5 billion years. But new research suggests that in at least one place, water gushed over Mars’s surface less than 1 billion years ago. The finding increases the likelihood that life may have existed relatively recently there.
