This study explores the remote sensing data of ice on Mars, focusing on the seasonal dynamics of the northern and southern arctic regions. Observations indicate that the white regions in the north expand during winter and contract in summer, prompting questions about their composition. Analysis includes visible, infrared, and gamma-ray data, revealing insights into the Martian ice caps. Understanding these changes sheds light on the presence of water and informs our knowledge of Mars' climate and geology.
