A U.S. team, including a Turkish scientist, has reached the second phase of its work in Lake Salda, which has a carbon structure similar to Mars, in search of traces of possible life on Mars.

Mars studies, which began in Lake Salda in the southern province of Burdur towards the end of 2019, continue with new questions from scientists.

Two divers in Turkey descended into the pristine waters of Lake Salda on Sept. 1 as part of scientific research into the ecosystem of its depths that could uncover key data on early microbial life.
