Mars Surface Too Acidic for Life To Exist
Mars Surface Too Acidic for Life To Exist
Clues found in the rocks by two NASA space rovers—Opportunity and Spirit—have led researches to conclude that the concentrations of minerals in Mars’s water makes the planet inhospitable for even the heartiest of organisms, according to Andrew Knoll, a professor of natural history in the Earth and planetary sciences department and a member of NASA’s Mars Exploration Rover science team. picked by deepchill 6 months ago

I don't know. On earth, life can be found in the most inhospitable and unimaginable places. Besides, Mars may be just too acidic to support life as we know it.

Sometimes I post this kind of stuff for peope like you to respond. I know you guys are around here!

But yeah, when you get down to it, the life-sustaining liquid that us humans cherish so dearly is nothing but two seperate gases, un-seperated. Who's to say helium or methane can't do the same thing under wildly varied conditions, as is the case with the universe? Maybe not here, but the periodic table only declares Earth's elements, so it's something that cannot be studied to completion, either.

It's like, so Mars too acidic for 'what' to live their? Us humans?
