So what if there was a lake on Mars

After taking satellite images of Mars, Scientists have found sedimentary rock, this formation of rock suggests lakes on some body of water. A geologists heaven is sedimentary, there are usually many fossils in between the layers of rock .

"I have not previously been a vocal advocate of the theory that Mars was wet and warm in its early history. But my earlier view of Mars was really shaken when I saw our first high-resolution pictures of Candor Chasma [a region of Mars]. The nearly identically thick layers would be almost impossible to create without water."
