There isn’t water there anymore (not in liquid flowing form) but chemical analysis have resulted in a “smoking gun” for past water at the landing site (called Jezero Crater). This image shows the rim of the crater where an ancient river carried in clay minerals which can only be formed by liquid H2O. These clay minerals serve as excellent time capsules because they trap and preserve organic matter. Hope we find some interesting stuff.
Also yeah my dream job would be to just train astronauts- I hope I find myself at the right place at the right time to find a job offering and shill my soul to Jim or Elon. I’d be willing to abandon everything just to help further the field of geology and train our future explorers.
