Life on Mars?

[DireWolfM14]

News today says an Italian team announced they may have found a subsurface lake on mars.

If there is a liquid water lake on Mars it's likely to be as salty as the dead sea.  If so, the chances of finding life are very slim, but I'm going by what's normal here on earth.  Do you think life could exist on Mars?

There is no life on Mars.

What if we find people like us live on Mars, is there a war?

Only if they have oil if you know what i mean )

If there is life on Mars, it came from Earth.

We'll see soon

If there is life on Mars, it came from Earth.    

Or, the inverse is possible.

I hope not, because that would mean that there will come a time when humans would colonize it too. If that happens, then there is a big chance that we might destroy it as well like what we are doing now to earth. Have we not done enough harm here that we need another planet to destroy?

I believe that we will find life down there as it is far enough away from the surface of Mars to be able to survive in the briny water environment.

you won t find other people in mars..that's a joke right? if there is life , it exists in microrganisms

In the future later the population of the soul will be very much, the earth may be crowded, and could have some people migrated to Mars.

Mars has a rather curious past, in some places it is possible to see the springs of rivers, and below the earth a few meters it has come to be known that there was water, but there was something that destroyed all the life that came to exist on Mars, something that we do not know yet.

Technologies are moving forward, the colonization of Mars is possible in the next several decades.

We hope for Elon Musk

I think it's going to take a very long time to actually get people on Mars, at least 50 years.  We haven't even been to the moon recently and there is not a lot of funding going to space tech.  Even with the rise of these private space companies it will take a very long time to get everything in order for a manned mars mission.

I personally don't think we will find any life on mars. The lack of any atmosphere makes it pretty difficult for anything that breathes to survive. I'm not saying that alien lifeform could not exist without breathing but that is beside the point. The evidence says that although it looks like something that could be an underground lake, it could also be frozen c02 or an ice sheet.

If it is a lake however, and even if it is salty that does not mean that things can't live there. The ocean is pretty salty and all life on earth originated there so it's not outside the relms of possibility. Furthermore, life has been found on Earth in some pretty inhospitable places. Check this out http://www.bbc.co.uk/earth/story/20150904-the-bizarre-beasts-living-in-romanias-poison-cave, its about life forms that were found in a Romanian cave with lakes full of hydrogen sulphide and show some of the life forms that can exist in extreme environments.

It is not known exactly if there is life on Mars

But they DIDN'T find life or evidence of life on Mars.

Hopefully we will find life on mars or other planets.  It will be interesting to experience other life forms.

People never went to Mars. everything is a lie.
