Water-ice has been found in vast quantities just below the surface across great swathes of the planet Mars.

It solves one of its deepest mysteries, points the way for manned exploration and reignites the question of whether life may exist on the planet. Insiders suggest that, partly as a result of this finding, Nasa may now commit itself to a manned landing within 20 years.
