EXTRATERRESTRIALS Mars has been the subject for the search for extraterrestrial life for more than 30 years. Many researchers believe that the Martian planet is capable of hosting life-forms but the Viking missions of NASA brought back nothing but inconclusive results. But an announcement by Genomics maverick Craig Venter may bring light to the hope for evidence on EXTRATERRESTRIALS. Venter stated at the Wired Health Conference in New York that he is aiming for the launch of a DNA sequencer to the red planet to beam back the genomes of any microbes from aliens. He believes that DNA on Mars is searchable if explorers only know the methods of looking for them. It has been theorized that the raw materials of life could have disseminated throughout the solar system during the early times and that life may come forth numerous times from the same ingredients. Besides, scientists think that life may have travelled between Earth and Mars million years ago in which collision of asteroids could have sent a vast number of rocks career between the neighboring planets. It has been also said that the appearance of DNA in one planet could only mean that there is life on it, and that this can be found on Mars, which seems to wait to be fully investigated with the right tools and application of methods. Venter refused to explain further about his plan but admitted that such may have slim changes of search for extraterrestrials. Besides, lead scientist Michael Meyer for Mars Exploration Programme of NASA supports the possibility that NASA may include DNA sequencer in the next rover launches on Mars.
