[ Who’s to say the ‘microbes’ aren’t from Earth? 65 million years ago, give or take a million or so, a huge something hit the Earth. It could have thrown up tons of dust and rock into space that drifted through space another million years or two or three or four, then finally came to rest on Mars, carrying ‘life’ from here................... ]

Nice Yarn.. I like mine...

Democrats just love to change history..

Somehow this got buried in a pile of pings and I almost missed it. You’re right, it IS fun!

WE HAVEN’T FIGURED OUT WHAT’S GOING ON ON EARTH YET.

That's because there's not much intelligent life down here...

Thanks Red Badger! Missed the ping before. Another 'extra, extra' to APoD members.

He used “preclude” correctly. He was stating that the discovery does not necessarily mean anything, thus is doesn’t preclude. Conclude wouldn’t work.

You’re right about “perchlorate” though.

Who's to say Mars and Earth didn't have intersecting elliptical orbits in the past?

A few close fly bys here and there, maybe a bump or two.

Sharing atmospheres or a few tons of matter here and there isn't too far fetched.

air from Earth (which does contain methane) was trapped in the instrument

I was nowhere near that thing, I swear.
