　　NASA: Strong Evidence of Liquid Water on Mars

　　Scientists have found strong evidence of salt wateron the planet Mars, the U.S. space agency NASAannounced Monday.

　　Jim Green is the director of planetary science at NASA Headquarters. He said during a newsconference that "today, we are revolutionizing our understanding of this planet."

　　Doug McCuistion is the former head of NASA's Mars program. He told the Boston Herald that "ifthey are announcing that they have found easily accessible, freely flowing liquid water underthe surface ... that has massive implications both for the potential for life on that planet andsustainability of humans."

　　NASA has found evidence of water on Mars in the past. In March, NASA said there was oncemore water on Mars than in Earth's Arctic Ocean. They say more than four billion years ago,Mars was covered with water 137 meters deep. But nearly all of it has since evaporated intospace.
