Científicos mapean el hielo en Marte: por qué es clave para futuras misiones espaciales

Scientists have mapped subsurface water ice on Mars, a development deemed essential for planning upcoming space missions and human operations. Although the planet's polar regions contain large reserves of frozen water, future landings and crewed activities are being planned in specific surface regions.

The mapping of this underground ice is a critical factor for logistics, as it provides a vital local resource that can support sustained human presence and exploratory missions on the Martian surface.
