Who would have guessed that ice abounds on planet Mars?
That's what made the news in recent days. There's hardly any news service that did not cover the new finding by the European Space Agency's (ESA) Mars Express mission, 15 years after it launched in 2003. Bob McDonald of the CBC radio show Quirks & Quarks even claims "A lake of water was found on Mars--and may be the first of many."
The ESA's message is titled "Mars Express gets Festive: A Winter Wonderland on Mars."
