For water to have come and gone it would have to be still there underground or has evaporated into space.

At present, there is no geologic evidence that the origin of life occurred on the Earth. So one hypothesis is that the origin could have occurred elsewhere, like Mars, and then transferred to the Earth

We may never know since it seems to be the nature of life to eat everything.

What caused the global warming there that wiped out all life?

Wait,I forgot due to its distance from the sun the temperature there is more than 100 degrees below zero most places at night and impossible for life as we know it to survive.

Why are we determined to waste money on such foolishness.I`m sorry but mankind cannot live there.

"If life was transferred between the planets, then Martian life, past and present, should have similar characteristics to early Earth life,"

Life-Swapping Scenarios for Earth and Mars

Oh great, some FoxTV producer is probably lurking as we speak, and getting ideas for a reality show...

AmazingSurvivorBrotherApprenticeRaceFactor-Intergalactic:
What happens when the Alien, the Predator, the 'rasta-dudes-from-ID', and 3 Earthlings (or as Greenpeace calls us 'Terra-ists') travel the deserts of the lower Sahara looking for work with only 2 canteens, a pogo stick, and a discarded Dixie Chicks tourbus?
Find out next Friday night at 9! Only on Fox!"

With enough time, enough comets, and enough proximity to a sun, life can be coaxed into existence anywhere. Even on Mars.

We know very little about the origin of life on the Earth…how it happened, what kind of environment it might have happened in, and how long it look to go from the origin to the last common ancestor of life as we know it - a very complex organism very much like modern life," Blank said

Refreshing to hear scientists admit that they know very little about how life started and how long it took to get where we are today!

Of course there was life on Mars. Tharks, Red Men, Black Men, Plant Men, Holy Therns, Synthetic men, white apes, all kind of life.
