“There are no geological or other abiogenic forces on Earth which can produce sedimentary structures, by the hundreds, which have mushroom shapes, stems, stalks, and shed what looks like spores on the surrounding surface,” Dr Dass said.The report cited previous studies that suggest a variety of species, including bacteria, algae, fungi and lichens, can survive a simulated Mars-like environment.
And while three of these rejected the evidence, the remaining eleven recommended publication, after certain revisions. Scientists used information from the European Space Agency to locate the lost waterways, giving them new hope in the search for alien life.Information from the ESA’s Mars Express mission, which was launched in 2003, has suggested that there were once large bodies of water above and below ground on the planet.
