Water on Mars.

 The Zhurong rover has been declared dead (dust on solar panels). But before it died, it found signs that there was water on Mars as recently as a few hundred thousand years ago. And the dunes it was exploring were covered in salt.

Sea salt, perhaps? We might never know. Mars was just that bit too small. Just that bit too cold. Alas.
