"Of all the planets in our solar system other than Earth, Mars is the most likely to harbor liquid water, and perhaps life.
The atmosphere on Mars consists of 95% carbon dioxide, 3% nitrogen, 1.6% argon, and contains traces of oxygen and water.
Martian temperatures vary from lows of –140 °C (−220 °F) in polar winters to highs of 21 °C (70 °F) in summers.
Whether living organisms ever existed there is still an open question." [#1]
"Scientists have long speculated about the possibility of life on Mars owing to the planet's proximity and similarity to Earth. It remains an open question whether life exists on Mars now, or existed there in the past." [#2]

Our plants thrive on carbon dioxide.
That is why you shouldn't believe those global warming nuts that say high carbon dioxide levels are bad.
First they say, save the rainforest,
then they say carbon dioxide levels are going up.
but wait, carbon dioxide is good for the forest.
they are just making stuff up.
Anyway about mars, Sure something could probably live there,
we have found creatures living in the harshest envirnoments here on earth, like near super hot water spewing from the bottom of the ocean near a volcano etc.

Oh sturdy question.. 70's in all probability. i think of they have been given the last decade purely impressive for the programme, purely the impressive volume of replace to be thrilling. So like Sam i could prefer to bypass back there!

Life seems to be a chIN OF EVENTS LEADING TO THIS MOMENT. wE COULD BE AT A POINT AT WHICH THE FACTORS OF LIVING CREATUReS MIGHT CHOKE THIS WORLD. dECREASED PLANT LIFE MEANS decreased oxygen. Can Earth survive Humanity?
