All evidence points to the fact that Mars once had flowing water, but numerous flybys, orbiters, landers and rovers have confirmed one undeniable fact — any liquid water that was once on its surface is now long gone.
A study out of Washington University in St. Louis might have found the reason: Mars, which is about half the size of Earth, and just over one-tenth the mass of our own watery world, might just be too small.

It sure seems possible that humans used to live on Mars and made their way to earth as the weather became unlivable. At the rate we are going, we will know a lot more in a few more years... we are progressing right along... A couple hundred years ago, nobody was flying or driving a car lol...
