Why Mars May Sustain Life Forms

I've done research in the past regarding life on other planets and apparently the one planet that is likely to sustain life would be Mars. Mars is of course very similar to Earth in so many ways, but the only problem with Mars is that its water is frozen stiff. According to www.nasa.gov, the temperatures in Mars would go as high as twenty degrees Celsius and as low as minus one hundred fifty-three degrees Celsius. This is one reason why Mars cannot support life from Earth since temperature changes are so bizarre over there. Since water was discovered on the moon, this only provokes debates on whether there are sufficient amounts of water on Mars.

If aliens do in fact exist on Mars, what would they look like? Well since the Sun is farther away from them, their skin would likely be a little more translucent that ours because of the overall temperature of that planet. Since our planet can sustain higher temperatures, our skins would have to be not only darker, but thicker too. Other scientific factors would play a factor on why our skin is the way it is, but it then I'll get to technical. If we were to discover life on Venus (highly unlikely), life on that planet would have rock hard skin since temperatures on Venus can reach up to four hundred degrees Celsius. This is just a theory, but an interesting one at that. After NASA's Opportunity and Spirit Rovers landed on Mars, I was shocked that they did not find anything extraordinary such as life of course, but I was happy they provide breathtaking shots of the planet.

I still have a feeling that there is life on that planet because it just looks so much like ours. Also, it looks very inhabitable for human beings. I wouldn't be surprised if the life there would resemble some of our creatures here on earth. It basically looks like a desert only without cactuses. Ever since NASA launched those rovers to Mars, my interest in astronomy grew considerably. It is hard to believe that those two rovers are still functioning after all these years especially with all those powerful windstorms. Data on Mars was retrieved at http://quest.nasa.gov.
