Yes, but not LIQUID water. In many cases, it's possible to detect things that are underground by radar, and by the type of return signal, figure out what kind of thing the radar pulse hit. Scientists controlling the Mars Surveyor satellite have bounced radar beams off of the north polar regions of Mars, and the return signal indicates that at least some water ice is buried a few centimeters underground.

Does Mars have frozen water?

It is very likely that Earth is the planet with the largest amount of frozen water.


Which planet thought to have liquid water in the past?

Mars is the planet thought to have had liquid water in the past based on various geological features such as canyons, river valleys, and mineral signatures found on the surface. These suggest that Mars likely had a more hospitable environment billions of years ago where liquid water could have existed.


Why do scientists believe Mars was once a wetter planet?

Scientists believe Mars was once a wetter planet because of geological features such as dried-up river valleys, lakebeds, and mineral deposits that suggest the presence of liquid water in the past. Additionally, data from Mars rovers and orbiters have detected evidence of ancient water flows and weathering processes that could have only occurred in a wetter environment.


What do Astronomers believe possible about Mars?

Astronomers believe Mars may have once had a more Earth-like environment with liquid water on its surface, based on evidence like dried-up river channels and minerals that form in water. They also think Mars might still have underground water sources or possible microbial life. Additionally, some researchers are investigating the idea of terraforming Mars to make it more hospitable for human colonization in the future.


Why do scientists believe mars is unable to support life?

Scientists still hope that Mars may have life of some kind; it would be an exciting discovery!Some reasons why Mars is unable to form EARTH life forms would be the lack of an oxygen atmosphere and the lack of water except possibly as ice in the polar regions.
