Eventually, NASA was able to recover the data from printouts, luckily preserved by Levin and Straat?and so, Miller was able to pore over the numbers. There were a lot of them?in fact, their analysis is still underway. But even after having crunched just 30 percent of the experiment?s data, Miller was able to find something remarkable?something, he says, that went unremarked-upon in the original papers. "The signal itself not only had a circadian rhythm," declares Miller, "but it had a precise circadian rhythm of 24.66 hours?which is particularly significant, because it?s the length of a Martian day."
