Immense Ice deposits have now been found on Mars, at its South pole.
It is so plentiful that were it melted it would cover the planet in 36 feet of water, scientists said yesterday !
The ice deposit found is over 2 miles thick, and bigger in size than Texas

Thoughts**
If it was'nt announced by NASA I would find it unbelievable.

Beat ya to it Mike. Perhaps my subject "Now we're cooking with gas" didn't resonate on your side of the pond.

You welcome Dan. Glad you like the picture of the ice sheet on Mars....that is a gas.
I can hardly believe its real, after being told for the last 60 years that Mars was hot dusty, and red rusty.
Got to put that NASA ice picture up again.
