Is ice that lies beneath the Phoenix lander on Mars? Although not at first sight, it is likely that under the substrate if you are an ice layer.
space probe landed a week ago, and have to dig into Martian soil in search of ice, but the instigators of the probe itself may have uncovered some during descent.
This image above is a photograph made last week by the Robotic Arm Camera and shows us a rare colored substance just in front of the landing of the Phoenix.
During the following weeks, Phoenix will continue photographing his surroundings, analyze the composition of the substrate so clear and dig around. If this unusual Martian ice clear substrate out would give the Phoenix a pedestal very timely to investigate the history of water on Mars, and to better determine the border between the ice and the land was ever capable of sustaining life.
