- China's Zhurong rover has made a stunning discovery on the rugged terrain on Mars.
- The beach is buried beneath the Martian surface.
- The discovery is the latest evidence indicating the existence of this hypothesized ocean, called Deuteronilus, roughly 3.5 to 4 billion years ago.
- Earth, Mars and the solar system's other planets formed roughly 4.5 billion years ago.
- Deuteronilus would have disappeared approximately a billion years into Martian history when the planet's climate changed dramatically.
