The dark narrow channel known as recurring slope lineae flows down a hill on Mars photographed in infrared light and appears to be an area where water flows today. Recently, scientists located brackish water on this hill located in the Hale Crater, thus confirming an original hypothesis that the channel was indeed formed by flowing water. The blue color upstream does not seem to belong to this configuration but rather they are formed in the presence of the mineral peroxin. Credits: NASA/JPL/University of Arizona
