They saw little "pathways" in which they think there might once have been a river. The pathways were dry and contained nothing, but the Scientists are sticking to their new discovery.
The Mars Pathfinder was built by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in collaboration with various other organizations. NASA's JPL managed the overall mission and designed and built the spacecraft, while other organizations contributed specific components or instruments to the mission.
Mars does not currently have a thick, H2O-rich atmosphere like Earth. However, there is evidence that Mars once had a thicker atmosphere that may have contained more water vapor and been more conducive to liquid water on the surface in the past.
Yes, the Phoneix mission in 2008 exposed water ice when it dug a trench. The vast majority of ice on Mars is frozen carbon dioxide, but we now know that there are sheets of water ice km thick at both the north and south polar caps.
As of now, there is no definitive evidence of life on Mars found by astrologists. Various missions to Mars, such as the Mars rover missions by NASA, have searched for signs of past microbial life but have not yet confirmed its existence. The search for life on Mars is ongoing with future missions planned to further investigate the possibility.
You can find ice caps on Mars, specifically at its polar regions. Both the north and south poles of Mars have ice caps composed of water and carbon dioxide.
No. While there is evidence of liquid water beneath the surface there are no oceans on Mars.
We all know humans need water to survive. If we find water on Mars, astronauts don't have to carry all those tons of water to the planet, and they can stay on Mars longer to do research.

If we find any, and there's no evidence thus far to indicate there are worms on Mars, we'll look into the situation and find out. You can bet on it!
The Phoenix Mars Lander, which operated from May to November 2008, successfully detected water ice beneath the Martian surface. It confirmed the presence of water in the form of ice by using its robotic arm to dig into the soil and analyze samples. While Phoenix did not find liquid water, its findings provided strong evidence of water ice, which is crucial for understanding potential past life and future exploration on Mars.
Scientist really cannot see enough detail on Mars to be sure. There probably is water on Mars and scientist have been studying whether there used to be life there. They are looking for living bacteria and searching for tiny fossils that might indicate life,
Yes.

There is very little water on Mars, but some can be found frozen at its North Pole.
I expected there to be life on Mars because I believed that there was frozen water on it, and with water comes life. -Starrynight98
