Mars Curiosity Rover’s Ancient Cat Statue
Mars Curiosity rover can’t seem to get a break from the weirder side of humanity’s search for alien life. While more serious scientists actually consider possibilities of discovering traces of microbial life — past or present — on the Martian landscape, armchair astrobiologists find more joy in finding potential artifacts that may provide evidence of thriving civilizations on Mars.
Scientists aren’t closing their doors to finding and discovering actual evidence of life on Mars. Recently, researchers were excited to learn that spikes on the methane levels Curiosity rover recently discovered in the Martian atmosphere might actually hint at microbial life on our neighboring planet. Although scientists can’t say for certain, they are considering their existence an actual possibility. Scientist Paul Mahaffy said, “[And] we certainly should have an open mind. Maybe there are microbes on Mars cranking out methane, but we sure can’t say that with any certainty. It’s just speculation at this point.”
Mars Curiosity Rover will be the basis of a non-manned mission expected to launch in 2020.
