The 5 Most Significant Scientific Breakthroughs
Let us discuss the most notable scientific breakthroughs of the year. Our first entry concerns the planet Mars, where a conclusive breakthrough occurred with the discovery of liquid water on its surface. Despite the planet's thin atmosphere, researchers had been searching for signs of flowing water for some time, and this year they finally succeeded. The water was detected by a radar instrument called Marcy's found aboard the European Space Station, and it is believed to be a lake some 12 miles in width, located about a mile beneath the polar ice cap. While this discovery does not necessarily imply the existence of life on Mars, it does provide a good indicator that life could exist on the planet. Experts can now follow the water to see where it goes and discover if any life forms might be drinking it.
