AP - NASA's Phoenix spacecraft has detected the presence of a chemically reactive salt in the Martian soil, a finding that if confirmed could make it less friendly to potential life than once believed.
I have to agree that if there is or was "Martian Life" it would have adapted to the environment by now. I have to question the billions of dollars spent on the feasibility of living on Mars when we can barely afford the fuel to commute to work and heat our homes on earth. How much would it cost to populate Mars even if it would work?
