OUT OF THIS WORLD Bryana Hunt 9RM

 Is this proof of life on Mars?  Were there really Martians once upon a time?

This lake appears to have been on Mars for at least 3 billion years. The lake is estimated to have been as big as 80 square miles wide, and 1500 feet deep. Lake Champlain which borders America and Canada is the closest resemblance to this lake on Earth.  There is a 30 mile long canyon running into a valley, which has formed a large Delta.  One reason scientists are so interested in these Delta's is because on Earth, Delta's contain lots of organic carbon, and other fuel providing minerals.   This photograph was taken by a High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment camera, onboard NASA's reconnaissance orbiter.
