    A NASA spacecraft called Curiosity recently made an interesting discovery. The robot discovered a strange stone on Mars. The stone in question is agate. It is considered rare, as it can only be found in two countries a land. One of them is Brazil. The other is Australia.

    From the discovery, they come up with indications that water may exist or exist on the Red Planet, as 20% of the stone is made up of H2O. With this information in mind, it can be said that human life can be found on Mars. See more details and information about these results.

    How could there be human life on Mars

    The opal stone was found by the American rover in an underground fracture on the planet. For this reason, it is possible to argue that these fractures can provide the stone with a better “accommodation”, since it is protected from radiation. This is in addition to providing water support, of course.

    Gale Crater, located on Mars, is a water-rich environment, possibly the last on the planet. As already mentioned, it is not located on the surface of the planet, but in its underground part, which also provides better conditions for survival. This way it can even be inhabited.

    With some studies, the researchers discovered that the rocks in this crater consist of agate stone. There was a large amount of water. The rocks involved are clear and opals appear in their composition.

    After this discovery, it can be said that this crater will be a place rich in water due to the presence of these light-colored rocks. Unfortunately, the winter inside the crater is very harsh, so the temperature quickly reaches negative numbers.

    it’s a Discovery of water in rocks and in the crater is important for future exploration and for astronauts. It is also important to know that if garnet is ground and has heat on it, it will easily release water, because this compound is not attached to the crystal structure. Yes, opal retains water.

    The fact is able to show that there is even a possibility of finding more water on the Red Planet, something that until then was not considered by scientists anymore. It’s also worth remembering that opals form in water-rich environments, so there’s reason enough to motivate the community.
