The scientists made Ice-VIIt in the lab by squeezing water at a pressure more than 50,000 that found at sea level.
A diamond anvil squashed water ice into a never-before-seen transitional form that may exist on other planets.

Physicists have discovered a new form of ice, something they say redefines the properties of water at high pressures. A team of scientists working in the Nevada Extreme Conditions Lab at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, pioneered a new method for measuring the properties of water under high pressure, according to a recent report from the university.

Researchers hypothesise that the Ice-VIIt phase of ice could exist in abundance in the crust and upper mantle of expected water-rich planets outside of our solar system

Water is one of the fundamental ingredients for life on Earth and covers around 71 per cent of our planet's surface, but it is also far more diverse than most of us would think.
