Correct me if i'm wrong..but i believe it was Arthur C Clarke himself who during a live teleconference from his home in Sri Lanka who said that the american orbiters had found evidence of vegetation on the surface of Mars and where theres vegitation,there must be something nibbling on it! Any thoughts about this statement?
I believe there is already evidence gathered from Galileo orbital data about europathermal underwater activity.Looking at pics of the few craters on the europan surface reveals the crust not to be uniformly thick as some craters are better preserved than others .In places where the crust is thicker ,that is where the underlying water is colder,craters are more lunar like in morphology.Other places where the crust is thinner.the impacting projectiles seem to have reached the underlying water or slush layer leaving a ghostly crater or ripple effect on the surface.Thin crust may be overlying areas of europathermal activity.These areas should be the sites where future robotic Europa landers should be directed to do any digging underground! Sorry if this subject has been tackled in the past,I'm new here..glad to be here thou!!!
If Eagle crater was formed after the presence of water.would it not render the meridiani landscape much rockier..same goes for Endurance crater?If so, this line of thinking would give us a rough estimate as to when the area was submerged in water, provided we have reliable cratering counts for planet Mars. ???
I'd say thats the only thing convincing i saw up to now what could potentially be a fossil.I t certainly looks different from any surrounding rock material including also the spherules seen in the image cut in half. Amazingly,it looks similar to the object identified in the now famous martian meteorite retrieved from antarctica on planet earth,believed to be evidence of past martian life!
Finding evidence of life on mars will only be irritating for those close minded religious fanatics IMHO.It certainly wont downgrade the importance of God..to the contrary,it will enhance the beauty of his creation!
