Mars May Be Hiding a Global Ocean Beneath Its Surface
- New research suggests Mars has enough underground water to form a global ocean.
- Findings are based on seismic data from NASA's Mars InSight lander.
- Water is believed to be 7 to 12 miles deep in the Martian crust.
- This water likely seeped from the surface billions of years ago.
- Confirmation would require drills and other equipment to detect signs of life.
