Ancient hot water on Mars points to habitable past

Researchers have discovered potentially the oldest evidence of hot water activity on Mars through the analysis of a 4.45 billion-year-old zircon grain from the Martian meteorite known as Black Beauty. This finding suggests early Mars may have been habitable, supported by geochemical markers of water-rich fluids and elemental evidence of hydrothermal systems. Unveiling Ancient Water [...]

Oldest direct evidence of hot water activity on Mars discovered in ancient meteorite

Sydney: Australian researchers have discovered the oldest direct evidence of hot water activity on Mars, revealing that the planet may have once been habitable.  In a study published on Saturday, a team led by researchers from Curtin University in Western Australia analyzed a 4.45 billion-year-old zircon grain from the famous Martian meteorite NWA7034, also known as Black Beauty, that was found in the Sahara Desert in 2011. The researchers found…
