Life on Mars to be announced by NASA this Friday (July 23rd.)

[OutHouse]

Richard C. Hoagland offered updates on several topics. He suggested that with the discovery of ammonia on Mars, that there would soon (as early as Friday the 23rd) be an announcement that the only explanation for this is that there is currently living biology on that planet. Evidence also indicates that we may be looking at long cycle seasons, and a return of the green areas that Lowell saw along with the canals, he said.

Cool!! Can't wait to read more on this.

the only explanation for ammonia on mars is life on mars?

yip

I hate to say it, but I really hope not, any life will mean that the greenies can stymie any development of mars for human use.

Ive seen on current imagery what appears to be plant life on Mars

 

[MacBaine]

This is really gonna mess up a lot of religious people...

Yes, because you're qualified to say.

But wait... evolutionary theory says that before life on earth, the atmosphere was composed of mostly nitrogen, argon, and ammonia.

Yeah, so this is bull.

Uhm, but the canals are a proven nonentity.

No source, no backing, no care.

wouldnt they be 'reddies'?

from ammonia to life...that's quite a jump. i find it to be another ploy to encourage government funding of Mars exploration.(which I believe in strongly anyway). even if they found crude amino acid structures, I'd be doubtful. Now if they found genetic material...

Yes, it means the cleaning lady left her spray bottle there.

Are you a scientist with access to all of the information the people making this announcement have?

I wasn't aware that NASA scientists were members on this forum.

You would think, but many so-called creation scientists are willing to accept the idea that Mars once collided with Earth; this would facilitate the transfer of biotics from Earth to Mars. This retains the idea that life originated on Earth, solely exists on Earth, and any existence of it elsewhere is merely happenstance.

Most would agree this is nonsense for obvious reasons, but if you wish to know more you can read Creator and the Cosmos.

Umm, it's been known for a long time that what Lowell saw was a result of two things: His overwhelming imagination and belief that intelligent life existed on Mars, and the optical illusion of his relatively low-resolution optics. Simply Google around for more information.

This thread is useless without links.

I haven't been keeping up with this. Point me to a site where I can read more please.

God probably placed traces of life on Mars to further test non-believers.

Um, Richard C. Hoagland does NOT work for NASA.

Not really..... until you find life itself, not the compositions required for life, the debate is still open

They'll make up or back whatever just so it doesn't conflict with their religion, which of course isn't wrong.

no its not a jump. Ammonia has a very short life span, for the amount of ammonia found in the atmosphere it has to be coming from something. The only thing that produces ammonia are living things.

Yeah the quack-factor of the google summaries is pretty high there....

"Creation scientists" (and it pains me to add "scientist" to that label..) are willing to come up with ANY hairbrained ideas to support their silly image of how life came to be.

Great! I want one as a pet!
