does Mars have water there?
117863
First, there have been proof of river beds and the like being found when space probes landed there.  Second, there are ice caps seen at the poles, and that's a sign of water as well.  But as for standing water, water that EXISTS right now, there is no sign or proof.  So it may have been there in the past, but not right now...

There are no polar caps eastern or western. The caps are at the poles (North & South)\n \nMars has ice caps at both its north and south poles. The perennial or permanent portion of the north polar cap consists almost entirely of water ice. In the northern hemisphere winter, this gains a seasonal coating of frozen carbon dioxide (dry ice) about one meter (three feet) thick. \n\nThe south polar cap also aquires a thin frozen carbon dioxide coating in the southern hemisphere winter. Beneath this is the perennial south polar cap, which is in two layers. The top layer consists of frozen carbon dioxide and about 8 meters (27 feet) thick. The bottom layer is very much deeper and is made of water ice. This knowledge that both martian polar caps consist almost entirely of water ice goes back only a few years. \n\n\nHow we learned about the martian poles\n\nUntil recently, it was thought that both martian polar caps consisted largely of frozen carbon dioxide, with a small amount of water ice. This idea dates back to 1966, when the first Mars spacecraft determined that the martian atmosphere was largely carbon dioxide. Scientists at the time argued that the ice caps themselves were solid carbon dioxide and that the caps regulate the atmospheric pressure by evaporation and condensation. \n\nLater observations by the Viking orbiters showed that the north polar cap contained water ice underneath its dry ice covering; however, experts continued to believe that the south polar cap was made of dry ice. In 2003, California Institute of Technology researchers Andy Ingersoll   \nSouth polar cap. Image: Mars Global Surveyor, Apr. 17, 2000. \n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \nand Shane Byrne argued, on the basis of high-resolution and thermal images from Mars Global Surveyor and Mars Odyssey, respectively, that the martian polar ice caps are made almost entirely of water ice – with just a smattering of frozen carbon dioxide at the surface. These images showed flat-floored, circular pits 8 meters deep and 200 to 1,000 m in diameter at the south polar cap, and an outward growth rate of about one to three meters per year. Infrared measurements from Mars Odyssey showed that the lower material heats up, as water ice is expected to do in the martian summer, and that the polar cap is too warm to be dry ice. Based on this evidence, Byrne and Ingersoll concluded that the pitted layer is dry ice, but the material below, which makes up the floors of the pits and the bulk of the polar cap, is water ice. This shows that the south polar cap is similar to the north pole, which was determined, on the basis of Viking data, to lose its one-meter covering of dry ice each summer, exposing the water ice underneath. The new results show that the difference between the two poles is that the south pole dry-ice cover is slightly thicker – about eight meters – and doesn't disappear entirely during the summertime. \n\n\nUnsolved puzzles\n\nThese findings present a new scientific mystery to those who thought they had a good idea of how the atmospheres of the inner planets compared to each other. Planetary scientists had assumed that Earth, Venus, and Mars are similar in the total carbon dioxide content, with Earth having most of its carbon dioxide locked up in marine carbonates and Venus's carbon dioxide being in the atmosphere and causing the runaway greenhouse effect. By contrast, the 8-meter layer on the south polar ice cap on Mars means the planet has only a small fraction of the carbon dioxide found on Earth and Venus. \n\nThe new findings further pose the question of how Mars could have been warm and wet to begin with. Working backward, one would assume that there was once sufficient carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to trap enough solar energy to warm the planet, but there's not enough carbon dioxide locked in the poles for this to clearly have been the case. There could be other explanations. It could

The temperature on Mars ranges from -140 C to 20 C (-220 F to 68 F) with the mean temperature being -63 C (-81.4 F).  While it may get mildly warm during the summer, Mars tends to be bitterly cold most of the time.

Yes, there are actually quite a few insects and animals that don't drink water.  They get the water they need from the food and plants that they consume.  Very handy for desert animals.

yes, indeed we can . The recent explorers made the discovery of water in ice form can be a good source of supply of organic  chemistry survivng there. While the scientists are reseacrhing  on the survival conditins of us on Mars are aroud 60 pecent if all the conditions are satisfied. In short answer, yes we can not only set foot on mars but also find a way of living on it.

Umm, your own source disputes your claim of no magnets:\n\nForm Wikipedia:\n\nObservations of the magnetic fields on Mars by the Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft have revealed that parts of the planet's crust have been magnetized. This magnetization has been compared to alternating bands found on the ocean floors of Earth. One theory, published in 1999 and reexamined in October 2005 with the help of the Mars Global Surveyor, is that these bands are evidence of the past operation of plate tectonics on Mars.[14]\n\nSo yes, a compass would work but not necessarily point to the north.

Mars has some of the correct properties for having had organic life from the Viking landing. No findings of old organic compounds. I think one mission just landed in an old crater that may have been one of the last places to have water so maybe the best chance to find something. Also, Europa is covered with ice and the tidal forces may keep it warm enough to make life. Galileo probe may find more.

There may actually be some water on the moon, but it would have to be in the form of ice crystals to have survived.\n\nThe Moon has very little gravity, and it is insufficient to prevent water in liquid or vapour form from drifting off into space.\n\nCurrent theory has it that the Earth actually received much of its water from meteorite impact and, as such, the Moon should have received a similar amount of water. So, on this basis, the assumption that it is due to a lack of constituent parts (hydrogen and oxygen) is incorrect.\n\nThe NASA weblink below gives more details.

Mars would be barren, but it has all kinds of features...\n\n*grabs blue moons to black holes, his sourse of power*\n\nAh!  Here we are!\n\nThe enormous Valles Marineris canyon system runs across half the planet.  Its like the grand canyon almost: a valley that was once beleived to have water flowing through it.\n\nOlympus Mons is the tallest known mountain, classified as a volcano.  It is about 3 times taller than mount everest!!!  However, its 20x wider than it is tall, so it is a fairly gentle walk\n\nId estimate the dry ice caps, made of carbon dioxide, would catch some attention.\n\nDemeos and phobos are so close to the planet, you can see them revolving around the planet 3 times a day.  Its a interesting sight!

Closest would be mars. \nHere is some comparisons: \nOther places on Earth that can help us understand Mars include:\n\nDeath Valley, California, where Ubehebe crater and "Mars Hill" have geologic features similar to those on Mars \nMono Lake, California, which is a 700,000-year-old evaporative lake that compares to Gusev Crater, a basin on Mars where water once was likely \nChanneled Scabland in Washington, where catastrophic floods swept through the land much like what happened long ago in the Ares Vallis flood plain where Mars Pathfinder landed \nPermafrost in Siberia, Alaska and Antarctica, where subsurface water-ice and small life forms exist \nVolcanoes in Hawaii, which are like those on Mars, though much smaller

sorry no answer.  but i was wondering?  How is Mars this time of year?

Many NASA scientists believe that there might be some water on the moon. However, to date, no water has been found.

The polar ice caps on Mars aren't water ice.  They are carbon dioxide ice (also known as dry ice).\n\nThe site selection for where they land the probes are based on a number of parameters, including the amount of open area and interesting geological formations in the region that they'd like to take a closer look at.\n\nIn the Rover's case, one of the parameters was spectrographic and IR telemetry readings that suggested the presence of some compounds that normally form in water, and physical features that appeared to be created by water erosion, so that was determined to be an ideal place to look for the presence of water on or below the surface.
