Which planet thought to have liquid water in the past?

Mars. It has been explored by several unmanned land rovers in recent times. Evidence collected from these rovers has helped to build up a picture of Mars' past, revealing that Mars once had liquid water on its surface.


Can water exist on a planet with no atmosphere?

Atmospheric pressure is an important factor in keeping liquid water on the surface of a planet. With no atmosphere, liquid water would quickly escape into space. It would depend on various factors such as the temperature and escape velocity of the planet of course. Scientists think liquid water existed on Mars in the past when the atmosphere was a lot denser. Water does exist on the surface Mars, but only as ice.


Which planets have water?

The only planet known to have liquid surface water is Earth, but probably all planets have at least some water. Water is made of two of the three most common elements in the universe, so it's not an exotic compound. Mars has frozen water in its polar caps (and may have had liquid surface water at one time). A number of moons orbiting Jupiter and Saturn have frozen water on their surface and possibly liquid water below that.

What planet is thought to have had liquid water in the past?

it's widely believed that Mars once had liquid water on its surface. The polar regions have been confirmed as ice, and there are 'tracks' on the surface of Mars. These tracks appear to indicate that something (ie large boulders) has moved across the surface, leaving a 'trail' behind them.
