That's also a good idea for our daily energy problem. Better to test it first on earth. lol

My answer is this: you can reap protein out of the newly-found fungi that can convert radiavtive energy to biological energy forms. But I guess these fungi need CO2 and water to produce carbonhydrates. CO2 won't be of a problem and water may be rare on Mars. Transportion of water to Mars is too expensive and inefficient. And the problem of lack of water, especially its H+ ionic lies in the way of every solution. It's what we should first solve.

Why doesn't this forum set aside a special place for 'Great threads in history'!

I seriously ask the forum to delete this topic, which tells things of too long ago! Totally rubbish and is no news to us.

Although it may be CO2, yet this discovery still add to the chance of life forms existing on Mars! We focus on water because water is the basis of earthly life forms. What if CO2 becomes the basis of life forms on Mars? They are both polar molecules and their movements transport chemicals from one place to another.  We may even expect some simple kind of life built on Si rather than C as the situation is on Earth.
I am not a scientific worker but we can think outside the box, something may be there on Mars!
