Ancient organisms may have left microscopic "biosignatures" on Mars. That's according to NASA scientists, who say a rock sample offers the most concrete proof yet that the red planet once hosted life.

Didn't the first two Viking probes also determine this probability?

NOW, FIFTY ------- YEARS LATER..

NASA has no place in polite society.

You got your 30.06 ready?

Just think: both earth and mars had similar life at the same time. Make one think and wonder about panspermia.

#3 I think it would be more exciting if they find that Mars had completely unique biochemistry from earth.

We are all Martians? Cool.

They need to get down into the big crack. The Valles Marineris.

Thats where any life that may have survived will be hiding.

We need the DNA. This may help us to prove or disprove panspermia.

Also we need to get under the ice of Titan and Enceladus. I predict if life is truly natural spontaneous and abundant in the universe you will find it there.

Archaea happens. So does hitchhiking advanced space-faring cultures, being the most obvious vectors for imposing new biological materials.

The unique coma of 3IAtlas is reaching stellar proportions.

If artificial it will release drones to explore in more detail.

This is a month of "new" discoveries. How exotic.

Maybe someday NASA, should it persist, will hire an honest biologist to study these "anomalous inconclusive data".

Just look wherever there's liquid water.
