If you are interested in Space and particularly our Solar system and our neighboring Planet Mars, you may be interested in this.
As I was reading my Astronomy Magazine, I came across a great photo of an always frosty Mars - Korolev Crater and as it is a large source of water ice, I thought I would share a short descriptive video... Why is this an important discovery you may ask? Well, it boils down to this... Water, simple H20, can be converted to its separate molecular parts; Oxygen and Hydrogen, which can be used for fuel for a space vehicle to return to Earth... It could also be used, of course, for drinking water for astronauts as well as a multitude of other things.
I recommend watching, full screen and sound up for the best viewing experience.
Enjoy:
