Your team is writing a research proposal to obtain money for designing, building, launching, and operating an interplanetary probe to search for water on one of the planets or moons in our solar system. But to which one should you send your probe? You have been asked to evaluate which planets or moons in our solar system might have liquid water.

Easy. Neptune is almost entirely frozen over, there is bound to be water there. It sort of mixes to a slush. There is also ice found just below the surface of Mars, hinting at possible groundwater. Neptune is frozen because of it's distance from the sun.

Mars has dry ice, which is just frozen C02
