Sorry, I wasn't very clear on that, was I?
You made the statement "Where there is water there is generally life". I was pointing out that we only know that about one planet in the entire cosmos and the sampling is just too small to make such a statement, but it is certainly true of the earth.

Well, that would prove there were apes and humans on Mars... I thought I was walking proof of that.

Well, it would prove that humans and apes had a common ancestor that lived on Mars......

Then we would have a new piece of information about the origins of the human species..........
I think because Mars does not have the magnetic field that the earth does to block the radiation, it has been barren for a very long time, perhaps since it's formation. No way to know for certain at this point.
If there is or was life, it probably would be microbial and subterranean. But maybe some day we will be able to answer that question definitively.
Oh ok. That makes sense now. Yes ,I was referring to life on earth.

That would be outside of anyone's expectations outside of B-movies and cheap paperback scifi, I think.
