Water On Mars
Sky News had a breaking story this morning about water being found on Mars by the rover. Anyone know any more details?

Just found this story:

It's about the Phoenix lander, not the rovers.

This will prove to be one of the milestones of space exploration.

It is a major discovery/confirmation.
