Is it true that Mars has water in the form of ice at its poles and beneath its surface?
Yes. A reference overview states water ice likely exists in Mars's polar ice caps and subsurface ice, and multiple peer-reviewed studies report vast near-surface ice reservoirs extending to the poles and buried water ice at mid-latitudes.
