Mars water: Liquid water reservoirs found under Martian crust
www.bbc.com
Studies of quakes detected from the planet's surface found it in the planet's rocky outer crust.

Scientists have discovered a reservoir of liquid water on Mars - deep in the rocky outer crust of the planet.

The findings come from a new analysis of data from Nasa’s Mars Insight Lander, which touched down on the planet back in 2018.

The lander carried a seismometer, which recorded four years’ of vibrations - Mars quakes - from deep inside the Red Planet.

Analysing those quakes - and exactly how the planet moves - revealed “seismic signals” of liquid water.

    If you don’t care how long it takes to get there and can effectively use the ITN you don’t even need to leave going that fast.

      Side thought, all I can think of now is developing the technology to accelerate the rotation of some of these ITN “slingshot” planets to speeds where they become giant versions of those hotwheels motorized launcher tracks.
