Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Like Earth, Mars has ice caps at its poles. Water reaches the poles as vapor and is frozen into thin layers that build up thick deposits. Mixed with this water is dust picked up by the wind, so the caps have bright and dark layers of “clean” and “dirty” ice.
Detailed explanation-2: -How much ice? More than 5 million cubic kilometers (1.2 million cubic miles) of ice have been identified at or near the surface of today’s Mars. Melted, this is enough to cover the whole planet to a depth of 35 meters (115 feet). Even more ice is likely to be locked away in the deep subsurface.
