IS there life on mars ?

No.. although the rovers did find pebble shaped objects which suggest the previous existence of water, and hematite an iron based rock usually found around water.  No life, only the possibility of previously existing life.

No, but some theories must confirm it now. The best theory is that there are water on Mars long ago. That may prov that there is life on mars. The problem is, it's not proven yet, and other theories are here.\n\nBut remember, every life in a planet starts with water, so maybe, bacteria evolved into sea animals because of water, then to reptiles, to animals, monkeys, and so on.

Yes i have some interesting facts about mars!!!The belief that there may be life on Mars was popularized in the 19th century, mainly due to the announcement of Martian canals from the observations by Percival Lowell and Giovanni Schiaparelli. Schiaparelli called these observed features canali, meaning channels in Italian. This was popularly mistranslated as 'canals', and the myth of the Martian canals began. They were apparently artificial linear features on the surface that were asserted to be canals, and together with the seasonal changes in the brightness of some areas, they were thought to be linked with vegetation growth. This gave rise to many stories concerning Martians. The linear features are now known to be mostly non-existent or, in some cases, dry ancient watercourses. The color changes have been ascribed to dust storms. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere isn't any that we've yet discovered. But there's plenty of evidence that there was once water, and so possibly there was once life, although we've yet to discover any fossils or anything like that. If there was life, it was probably only microbial. But hey, it's a whole planet, who knows what we'll find. \n\n\n\nThere is no life on Mars, however their are all the signs that life was their once since their are large river like gorges covering the planet. Since then Mars' core (i think) cooled to low to support life and so everything cooled. Search for life still continues with little success. \n\n\n\nLife on mars is very possible. It would probably have lived a looooong time ago, back when mars probably had water. Most of that water is frozen in permafrost now though! A mars mission would look for fossil es as well as signs of water being on the surface.

Yes. They are probably microbes or even smaller nanobacteria. \n\nI have seen the work of Dr. Robert Folk at the University of Texas, who examined the Martian meteorites found in Antarctica and found possible fossil evidence of nanobacteria. Many biologists are not convinced that nanobacteria (which are measured in nanometers) even exist and argue that they are too small to contain the functions of a living cell. The topic remains controversial.   \nHere is a page discussing the biological controversy (there are some geological controversies as well):\nhttp://serc.carleton.edu/microbelife/topics/nanobes/index.html\n\nHere is the NASA page describing the findings:\nhttp://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/marslife.html

having life only exist on earth is like picking up a single grain of sand and saying that that grain was the most perfect grain in the entire world...it would be impossible to know this unless every other grain was examined, and the fact the new grains are constantly being made.  there are over 200 billion galaxies in the visible universe and a couple hundred billion more out there, all containing stars and planets that maybe able to sustain life.  and by "life" that also takes into account of any micro-organisms like bacteria and viruses and any other forms of life that might exist.  So to say that there is no life on other planets would be incorrect to assume, it's just a matter of time in trying to find it, whether it exists in our solar system is still debatable as micro-organisms can live in harsher conditions that larger organisms arent able to

there hasn't been any found yet.... but... the possibility of life on other planets is very  high....  :)

The only clues to life on Mars are that it once had water, and there may be water beneath the surface in which some kind of primitive life might have survived from Mars watery period.  \n\nSome water ice also forms at the poles, and may harbor some primitive lifeforms that respond to the seasons.  But no probe has been there to do the study.\n\nThere is still a lot of debate regarding the Mars meteorites and whether they actually contain microbes.  Firstly, they may not be fossilised microbes at all, and secondly you have to show clearly that the meteorites have not been infected by Earth microbes. \n\nSo, nobody to date can say with any certaintly that life exists anywhere else but on Earth.\n\nFood for thought.

There has been bacteria found on mars before.  I also think that it whould be silly to make one planet only contain life forms.  There is a huge univese and I'm pretty sure that there is.

yes, indeed we can . The recent explorers made the discovery of water in ice form can be a good source of supply of organic  chemistry survivng there. While the scientists are reseacrhing  on the survival conditins of us on Mars are aroud 60 pecent if all the conditions are satisfied. In short answer, yes we can not only set foot on mars but also find a way of living on it.

Why do we live in Mars ?

No one has ever been to Mars. And I'm assuming you want to konw if UFOs exist. Well then are not proven, and I don't believe they do. You're not gonna find any credible proof out there either, only a bunch of deranged people claiming they have seen them, and have been abducted.

It's hardly surprising that we can see no sign of life out there.  Views of Earth taken from unmanned explorer craft like Voyager taken from within our own solar system show no signs of life either. If you can't see elephants, whales or even forests from only a few million miles away then looking at hazy dots that are planets thousands of light years away expecting to see obvious signs of life is a bit optimistic.\n\nIn addition, given the size of the Universe we can hardly claim to have looked everywhere whilst at the same time it seems inconceivable that some form of life has not evolved somewhere else.\n\nSpectroscopic analysis of stellar nebulae and other "gas clouds" in deep space has revealed the existence of basic organic compounds such as amino acids which are regarded as fundamental building blocks of all living things here on Earth. So if life itself hasn't been located elsewhere, some of the prerequisite precursors certainly have.\n\nThere are also several "fossils" found on meteorites believed to have come from Mars which may or may not prove to be the remains of living things which originated on Mars.

I doubt that Earth is the only planet in the whole Universe that can sustain life.  There will probably be some other planets out there somewhere with some sort of life on it.  Whether it's intelligent life or not is another question!\n\nThere may very well have been life on Mars, or on other planets in our solar system at one point,  but we have yet to find it, or any evidence.

It's not so much the Martian life that might have been there, but rather, the Earthly life that we could send there in the event of, oh say, an anticipated global-killer meteor hit here until everything cooled down and Earthly re-seeding could begin. Aside from that, we humans, we explore.

1.) The chances are about 100%, plus-minus 0%. Primitive forms of life (i.e. cells) have been discovered on Mars and on some asteroids, the question is, whether there is intelligent extra-terrestrial life. And I find it hard to believe that there wouldn't be, given the infinite size of the universe and the laws of probability. \n\n2.) No, I don't believe in mermaids. Leprechauns, now that's another story...

Yes there is water on Mars, underneath the ice caps. And they have found traces of water from over 200 million years ago, which means that at one point there was life on Mars, and scientists have proven it that wherever they have found water on Earth there has been one life form or another.
1046567
No, not really. However scientists have found traces of water present in some core samples. They generally believe that Mars did have oceans and lakes and an atmosphere like Earth. A very long time ago. I'm sure you could get all the information you need at the NASA web site.
