Did NASA Just Discover Life on Mars?
12NASA has released new rover images that could be the strongest evidence of ancient life on Mars. The Perseverance rover’s Sapphire Canyon sample from Jezero Crater shows unusual leopard spot textures, organic carbon, and rare minerals such as vivianite and greigite. On Earth, these are often linked to wetlands and sometimes microbial activity. Scientists remain cautious, but the discovery may reshape our understanding of Mars. With the Mars Sample Return mission, we may soon learn if life once existed on the Red Planet.
