The BBC just announced that the Nasa's Phoenix spacecraft touched down on Mars so can we now look at a greater chance of finding life or are we merely wasting time looking at more and more rock?

Well JB, this mission is going to focus specifically in the areas where there is deep ice, they are hoping to find organisms that will prove there is life in Mars. I am very excited about it!

There might be some kind of microscopic life but I doubt they will ever find something like a dog or humanoid walking around. If they were meant to find any living thing I believe they would have found it already.

Krusten, you made me laugh with the dog comment. For life to take place, needs to be water so that's exactly the job that the Lander is going to do for 90 days. Can't wait for the results!

I believe that checking the polar ice caps for possible life on mars is a advanced step for human kind. We need to have the technology to head to distant planets and see if there is life on the planets. Having life on a planet will show that the planet is capable of supporting life. Doing this here on mars is a great step forward. Now we need to send a manned ship to mars.
