Water

People think there might be water on mars and I totally agree with them. Why? Well because there are polar ice caps and the polar ice caps are made out of water but frozen. There are also channels but when people first saw them they thought they were canals. Well their not so deal with it. There has to be water in the polar ice caps right. I still agree on that so ya let's move on.
