Last month NASA’s Mars Curiosity Rover completed a Martian year, which amounts to 687 Earth days, traversing the reddish, arid landscape. The vehicle has ploughed through the red planet and is currently rolling through the Martian crater, Gale.
The Curiosity Rover’s sojourn may have increased the curiosity of scientists worldwide, as it has found evidence that would suggest water existed on the planet once. Scientists of the space agency say that ancient Mars had large quantities of water, which, due to the global hydro-geological cycle, led to the presence of a humongous ocean.
