Tom's music

Frozen beneath a region of cracked and pitted plains on Mars lies a basin with a diameter of about 2,050 miles. Aptly named Utopia Planitia, or "plains of paradise", it results from a major impact early in Mars' history.
Over the aeons water vapor, condensed from the extremely thin atmosphere as snow and weighed down by frozen carbon dioxide, filled this basin, which now harbors as much water as what is contained in Lake Superior, the largest of the Great Lakes.
Concerning the foundation of a future human settlement on Mars it may just be the most suited site yet found.
