Martian polar ice caps
The planet Mars has two permanent polar ice caps . During a pole's winter, it lies in continuous darkness, chilling the surface and causing the deposition of 25–30% of the atmosphere into slabs of CO 2 ice ( dry ice ). [1] When the poles are again exposed to sunlight, the frozen CO 2 sublimes . [2] These seasonal actions transport large amounts of dust and water vapor, giving rise to Earth-like frost and large cirrus clouds . Clouds of water-ice were photographed by the Opportunity rover in 2004. [3]
