NASA just announced they found liquid water on Mars! Before they found strong evidence of organic compounds and now they just found liquid water. This is as close to discovering life as we can get without actually discovering it! One step closer! This has to be one of the most exciting discoveries in space exploration in years. Great work NASA!
Edit: This also makes the possibility of a Mars colony a lot easier! One step closer from expanding from 1 planet to 2!
Edit: NASA believe the water is probably very salty. That's most likely the only way liquid water could exist.
[spoiler]That means we can actually say the forums are salty like the water on Mars!!![/spoiler]
Edit: I'm reading news about it as its coming out. Some scientists are think that terraforming Mars could be easier and faster if we have a source of liquid water! THIS IS HUGE!
Edit: More than 1100 comments! Very cool!
Our solar system is but a grain of sand in an endless sea of aw and wonder and yet we as humans have only begun to open the door to a universe filled with infinite possibilities. Being the most intelligent species in a solar system is like being the king of a chair. It means nothing, and yet it is everything we know.
[b][u]TL;DR[/u][/b]: NASA made a huge discovery by finding proof of liquid water on Mars which is a perfect environment for life.

Don't be surprised if the first base put on Mars intending to grow farms and colonize and stuff blows up for no evident reason. There is a reason....

I was hoping for Eezo deposits, maybe an alien ruin... But, hey, this is cool too. Feels like your GF telling you you're in for a wild night, and instead of blindfolds and whipped cream you end up at Dave and Busters. Still fun, but not exactly what you had in mind...

Send some water to California.
