We May Have Found Mars's Ancient, Underground Lakes - SciShow News

The video discusses the discovery of evidence suggesting Mars once had a global system of underground lakes, which could have supported life. Scientists used data from the Mars Express mission to study craters and found features indicating past water activity. Meanwhile, SpaceX achieved a milestone with the successful demo of the Crew Dragon spacecraft, marking a new era in commercial spaceflight. This mission paves the way for future human exploration of Mars.
