As we reported a week ago on SpaceTime -- the newly detected planet named Proxima B is about 1.3 times the mass of the Earth and is orbiting in its host star’s habitable zone – temperatures would allow liquid water to exist on the surface of a terrestrial or rocky planet. *Seasonal streaks on Mars may not be water after all Seasonal dark streaks on Mars known as Recurring Slope Lineae which have become one of the hottest topics in interplanetary research don't hold much water after all -- according to new data from NASA’s Mars Odyssey spacecraft which is orbiting the red planet.
