Discovery Of Ancient Hot Water On Mars Indicator Of Its Habitable Past

Scientists are constantly searching for whether there was life on Mars or not. Now researchers in Australia have claimed to find evidence of hot water on Mars. It is being said that there will be life on the red planet i.e. Mars. Researchers from Cutin University in Western Australia have done a study about this. Researchers have studied a particle of a jurcan 4.45 billion years old. It came from meteorite NWA7034. This meteor body is also known as Black Beauty. This particle of Jerkan was found in the Sahara Desert in 2011.

Researchers in the study found that this grain of jerkan is a type of mineral type. It has found ground-currency marks of water-rich fluids. According to the report, it shows that in the initial stages, water was present on Mars during the magnetic activity. Study co-author Aaron Cavosie says that this discovery will give a new direction to understand the hydrothermal system of Mars. Also, whether it would have been life on the red planet or not, it can also be known through further research.

According to the news agency Xinhua, these researchers used nano-scal geochemistry to detect the evidence of hot water on Mars 4.45 billion years ago. Hydrothermal systems are very important for the development of life on earth. The discovery of the researchers says that Mars must have ever had water, which is very important to create life -worthy conditions.

Research states that even though the big meteorite has fallen on Mars and they have had an impact on the surface, the study suggests that the water may have been present in the early Pre-Noachian period on Mars. It may be present about 4.1 billion years ago. Researchers at the University of Aldiade also contribute to the study. This study has enthusiasm among researchers because if there was water on Mars, then there must have been life here. And it is also likely from here that this can be possible again in future.
