It's "liquid water" in the same sense that the molton rock inside the earth is "liquid rock".
Here when we see water outside of it's natural state (liquid) it's frozen or evaporated. Out there ice (solid) is the natural state, so it's molten or (vaporized ???).
- sliverstorm 14y agoIf it's subterranean, it's probably not vaporized. Thank the pressure.
