TL;DR Summary

The Mars Express mission has discovered a massive water reservoir, up to 3.7 km thick, within Mars's Medusae Fossae Formation, holding enough water to fill Earth's Red Sea. This finding challenges previous theories and suggests a water-rich past for Mars, with implications for future exploration. The discovery of extensive ice deposits near Mars's equator enriches our understanding of the planet and its potential for human exploration, offering promising prospects for scientific discovery.
