NASA Science Update to Discuss Mars Atmosphere Activity
WASHINGTON -- NASA will hold a science update at 2 p.m. EST, Thursday, Jan. 15, to discuss analysis of the Martian atmosphere that raises the possibility of life or geologic activity. The briefing will take place in the James E. Webb Memorial Auditorium at NASA Headquarters, 300 E St., S.W., Washington, and carried live on NASA Television.
I love how scientists keep desperately clinging to the belief that Mars has life - even if it is primitive. Mars is a washed-out could have been that never made the cut. If ever there was life there, it is most likely long gone now. Europa on the other hand does have some promise, if it does indeed have a vast ocean under its ice-crust.
Mars is dead ball of rock with the occasional dust storm.

I know right. It are fact, I know because of my internet learnings.

That... that's completely wrong.
While Mars certainly has a low probability for life, it has a much higher amount of life requirements than anywhere else we know of in the universe. The moons are only speculation at this point, and due to the difficulty in reaching them with any significant scientific equipment they have a far higher chance of finding life on Mars in the near future than anywhere else.
Mars might have had life, but it just seems so fruitless turning over rocks and hoping to find something under a microscope. So far the best they got is a meteorite they picked up in Antarctica that is believed to have martian origins and oh shit that microscopic spec on it looks like bacteria if you squint at it hard.
Maybe they will find some sort of fossilized life? We have no way of quantifying how common life is in the universe because our only point of reference is our own planet. We very well might be the shining jewel in a barren cosmos (doubtful but without another world with life forms to compare notes - plausible).
I love being a bullshit artist.

Remember when Palin was ironically bashing fruit fly research earmarks because she thought it was a waste of time, when it turned out fruit fly research was the spark that jump-started the whole of DNA science, including autism research?

Ok ok fine! And to think I am being called the crazy one because even though no one has found life on Mars - IT'S BOUND TO HAPPEN TOMORROW JUST YOU WAIT. I guess from now on when someone posts a different opinion the appropriate counter argument is "BOOBS LOL".

Well I express my opinion that Mars is a dead planet and I get compared to that psychopath Sarah Palin.
It's not that...it's the fact that, lets be honest dude. There are hundreds of people who spend countless hours and getting paid countless amounts of money to research this stuff, trying to find out the answers.
Yet...you seem to have all the answers.

It just sounds silly
I don't have anything against you or your posts. I just like to call a spade a spade sometimes.

Ok, I see that. I am certainly no astro-biologist, but I do have a love for the kind of stuff like thos. Why I got lured into this conversation in the first place. I have always prefered the 'this is my stance' instead of hemming and hawing about the maybes and ifs, but yeah I did come of dickish.
Boobs in space would be nice. Space porn is only a matter of time.

John Robinson: No, we don't have enough core material for that.
Major West: Well, maybe if we catch one of the thermal...
John Robinson: No, it won't work. I *know*. We have to go... down. Through the planet as she's breaking up. We can use the planet's gravity...
Major West: What?
John Robinson: To throw us out the other side and back into space!
Major West: That's insane!
John Robinson: I don't have time to argue.

MAKE WAY, MAKE WAY
DARK HELMET'S GOT SOMETHING TO SAY
OR RATHER TO REGURGITATE
if we found traces of life on mars, then our own planet wouldn't be the only point of reference. ahdurrrrrrrrr
I think it is us who are being trolled here.
