Answer to Question 1

A hypothesis must make predictions that are testable today, even if it concerns something that happened in the past. In the case of water on Mars, we would expect geological and mineralogical signatures to persist after the water has sublimated or otherwise disappeared and, indeed, orbital imagers and ground rovers have found several features that support the hypothesis.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
