I have standing $100 bets with a number of people that we will find LIFE (at least microbes) on another planet in this Solar System. Mars leads the pack of contenders with Europa and other icy moons as candidates. Any more takers? BTW, Sir Arthur C. Clarke contends that photos from Mars ALREADY SHOW EVIDENCE OF LIFE! Fascinating subject.

And old Sir Arthur C. Clarke is an authority on extra-terrestial life... why? Because he wrote lots of great science FICTION?

Other life in the solar system there may be, but its going to take a lot more than Arthur C. Clarke seeing the "face" on Mars in a photo to convince most people.

No, but I'm going to start rounding up suckers, um... bettors myself, as this sounds like a bet you can't lose.

No life found? We just haven't located it yet.

Got microbes? Jackpot!
