Couple of space.com articles on mars microbial life
« on: August 09, 2004, 03:27:12 pm »
Here is the first one:  http://space.com/scienceastronomy/mars_microorganisms_040803.html

I'll edit in the second one later. There is a pretty good chance the viking scientist was right about there being microbial life on mars based on his on board experiment. It was dismissed and panned by NASA in 1976. But... they may have to eat crow.

Here is the second link:

EDIT: Replaced incorrect link. Added second link
