After a year-long trek across Mars, NASA says its Curiosity Rover has obtained new evidence that strongly suggests the Red Planet may have had a more moderate climate.

NASA says the Red Planet may have maintained a climate millions of years ago that could have formed lakes.
In August, observations by the space agency′s Curiosity Rover showed deposits of sediments around Mount Sharp, a large 5-kilometers high peak in Gale crater,... that resemble deltas formed at river mouths on Earth.
Ashwin Vasavada, Curiosity deputy project scientist, says this finding could challenge previous arguments that wet conditions were short-lived or only underground on Mars.
