Using seismic activity to probe the interior of Mars, geophysicists have found evidence for a large underground reservoir of liquid water - enough to fill oceans on the planet's surface. The data from NASA's Insight lander allowed the scientists to estimate that the amount of groundwater could cover the entire planet to a depth of between 1 and 2 kilometers, or about a mile. While th
