A handout of the European Space Agency ESA shows a visualisation of Mars, created from spacecraft imagery. Sudden, tremendous gushes of water from underground most likely carved out unusual fan-shaped geological formations with steps like a staircase long ago on the surface of Mars, scientists said on Wednesday.

I’d like to know if the inundated areas conform to a pattern on Mars’ surface? Are they in a band, in a zone, above or below the equator, and how could water carve out a canyon that is boxed at both ends?
