“This is the best evidence of water and waves that we’ve seen during the entire mission,” said NASA scientist Aswin Vasavada.
Scientists theorize that if life ever existed on Mars, evidence might be found near where water once was. Scientists also hope to find out why a once-flooded planet like Mars turned into the frigid wasteland it is today.
