Mars just dropped some major beach vibes—literally! New data from China’s Zhurong rover showed rock formations that look just like Earth’s coastal beaches. Scientists found layers of sloping sediment, the kind shaped by waves, not wind or volcanoes. That means Mars likely had a massive body of water with actual tides and shorelines billions of years ago. This discovery gives serious weight to the idea that Mars once had conditions perfect for life. Imagine sunny Martian beaches—no sunscreen needed, just a spacesuit!
