The search for water on Mars

...Careful investigation of the size, rounding and distribution of the pebbles led the mission team to conclude that they were deposited by a stream that was knee to hip deep and probably flowed at an average velocity of 0.20 to 0.75 m s−1. In addition to these conglomerates, sandstones and mudstones were found. The fine-grained nature of the mudstones showed that they...
