Ice is important. If you plan to live on Mars, it solves a lot of complex problems, such as a source of water for the Astronauts, water to grow plant life for food, and of course with water, you have a constant supply of oxygen using equipment as found on subs!

Finding carbon based life outside of Earth becomes a possibility if it exists too!

What does that have to do with the price of beans? About along the same lines!

Is there a solid rocket booster chemical crisis too?

If were going to colonize Mars, one question?

What does Martian water tastes like?
