When the Red Planet was Blue

These amazing pictures were taken by the Mars Express spacecraft, which is orbiting around Mars. The first shows a river-like ditch winding across the surface of the planet. This is believed to have been carved by deep, flowing water in the distant Martian past, billions of years before humans even existed!
