Water ice found near Mars’s equator could entice colonists and life-seekers
Find also poses climate puzzle

Very interesting finding. Daytime surface temperatures near the equator can be well above freezing. That raises the possibility of liquid water near surface at these sites.
Could Curiosity or Opportunity visit one of these sites?
One of these sites might be a good location for the Mars 2020 rover.
