In my opinion, there could well be. When you go to the depths of the oceans on earth, where light from the sun never ever penetrates, life can be found that exists at thermal vents on the ocean floor, in conditions that we once thought were impossible for life. Also, go a few 100 feet into the permafrost in the antartic, and life can also be found in almost suspended animation there too. To find out how robust living systems can be, google the term extremophiles and see what you come up with.

even though there are rumors of water in mars, that is useless. Humans can make water by mixing some gasses.And even if there is water on mars, there is no air. Unless,of course, you are willing to wear an oxygen tank with you everywhere.And rich enough to change it about a hundred times everyday.And rich enough to buy a rocket to go to the nearest grocery store,Earth.Then yes, it may be possible.

It is possible, everywhere we go on earth no matter what the extremes of the conditions (light/no light, cold/heat, different nutrient mixes) we find bacteria (which fit the definition of Life. If they can survive in our extreme conditions there is a very real possibility that where there is water on mars that there is bacterial life.

Not human or extraterrestrial life but very simple life may exist there. We discovered signs of water in the past and also have evidence of possible under surface water currently. I'm sure there is some unknown or known simple life form on that planet. Hell, we are still finding new species on our own planet. I like this topic.

Well, yeah, it is possible for a living creature to survive in Mars. Mars has a few supply of oxygen, though it's to few for a human to survive... But, for tiny creatures like amoebas and other single-celled organisms, it is really possible!...

Yes, it is. In the most hostile environments of Earth, some of which are similar to parts of mars, we can find life.

sure why not. people believe in ufos and ghosts and vampires. might as well be life on mars. they just might be hiding "in" mars. just like your question says "life in mars".

Water has been discovered there, and there is the presence of carbon dioxide as well. If carbon dioxide then there is the likelihood of carbon on which life as we know it is based.

No! if it was, when men went there, they would have certainly found one living creature other than stone and least of the oxygen and whatsoever are found there so far....

I suppose it is possible, wejust have not found it yet.
