These halos comprise high concentrations of silica and indicate that liquid groundwater flowed through the rocks in Gale crater longer than previously believed.

The discovery of light-toned bedrock – called ‘halos’ – with high concentrations of silica in Mars’ Gale crater, reveals that groundwater persisted once the lake in Gale crater dried up.

This study shows that liquid water was present in the sub-surface of Gale crater for much longer than previously thought, which expands the window in which life could potentially have evolved on Mars Featured image courtesy of ESA/DLR/FU Berlin. »
