How did Mars go from having oceans, rivers, and lakes of liquid water on its surface to the permafrost-like state its surface is in now? (Put the steps in chronological or cause-and-effect order by entering the number 1 for the first step, 2 for the second, 3 for the third, and 4 for the last.)

Answer :

1. Magma forced intrusion melted the ice and made pathways.

2.Tectonic deformation caused open fractures

3. Icing induced pressurization

Basal melting made up serious pressure and burst the Cryosphere

4 .Meteoric impact

Hypothesis testing: Currently there is not enough data to agree to the fact or disagree the hypothesis. But a long line of missions, with landers and rovers, has been planned

Mars was once a warm home for lakes and oceans billions of years ago. That is until the massive liquid bodies on its surface perished some 3 billion years ago.

What happened to the water bodies on Mars?

Based on data from NASA's Mars Sky and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN), scientists believe that dust storms erupting from the Martian surface have been progressively sucking away the planet's water over millions of years, dragging water molecules up on a wild voyage into the atmosphere.

For many years, scientists concluded that this water vanished into space when the planet's atmosphere deteriorated.
