Hello Listers

I think the question is when will life be detected, I have a hunch and
think there was life on Mars in the past, it comes down to proof :)

Enjoy

A team of Canadian, Scottish and U.S. researchers says they have
discovered traces of methane in meteorites from Mars -- a possible clue
in the search for life on the Red Planet.

The researchers examined samples from six Martian meteorites that had
fallen to Earth. The team crushed the rocks and then analyzed the gases
that emerged using a mass spectrometer.

The meteorites were found to contain gases similar to the composition of
the Martian atmosphere; they also contained methane.
