Another one for the books!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronology_of_discoveries_of_water_on_Mars
I was about to say; isn't this about the dozenth time they've found water on Mars? It's not news anymore.
It's the location that's surprising.
Yeah, you'd expect milk there
There's an image on Wikipedia I can't find showcasing water on Mars.
A glass of water on a Mars bar.
This one?

Not the exact image but close enough
Never mind, it's not close enough.
Because I found it.
Nice sleuthing!
The link now says "content no longer available". Were you able to track down the original Wikipedia article as well?

Section: ♥Water on Mars♥

I'm thinking of something like this:
Due to Absorbance, wet air should absorb specific frequencies of light.
