Most icicles in nature are made from water and a little salt. Over time, small bumps in the ice grow into large ripples because liquid water coating the ice is thinner above the bumps and can ...

This means that exposed liquid water must have flowed across Mars' surface at some point in its history. The ripples were present in two separate lakebeds in Gale Crater, which Curiosity has been ...

A group of physicists from Canada have been growing their own icicles in a lab in the hope of solving a mystery that has, up until now, continued to puzzle scientists.

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Water trapped against a surface it doesn’t like will ripple in frustration as it seeks to escape, say researchers at the University of Illinois who will report their findings ...
