Mars Rock Shows Potential Evidence of Past Life, Suggests Universe May Be Teeming with Life, Including on Europa
Jul 27, 2024, 10:55 PM
A rock on Mars has been found showing potential evidence of past life, suggesting that life may have occurred twice in our solar system independently. This discovery could imply that the universe is teeming with life. Astrobiologists are investigating the likelihood of extraterrestrial life. The rock is most likely to contain fossilized microbial Martians. However, a follow-up experiment designed with this knowledge cannot be conducted on Mars for many years. Additionally, there is speculation about the possibility of life on Europa.
