Published
NASA’s latest update is not one small step for man, but one giant leap for mankind that believes in life on Mars … as there’s been a major discovery on Earth’s neighbor.
Sean Duffy, the United States Secretary of Transportation and administrator for NASA, held a press conference Wednesday … where he announced that a rover uncovered the “clearest sign of life” ever found on the 4th rock from the Sun.

As shared in the announcement, the Perseverance rover collected a sample on Mars, which is believed to be evidence of ancient microbial life.
Nicky Fox, who joined Secretary Duffy at the press conference, explained the sample had a “kind of signature” of something that would be “biological.”
In simple terms, NASA researchers have been examining features on some ancient rocks located in the Jezero Crater … where a river existed on Mars billions of years in the past.
The features possibly indicated that tiny life forms may’ve existed on the planet long before Earth’s humankind … and the rover’s new discovery seems to support this theory.
Specifically, chemicals — like iron and phosphorus — were detected in the sample collected microorganisms the rover … this means tiny microorganisms may’ve broken down organic material — something that happens here!!!
The Trump administration has a particular interest in Mars, with the President noting in his inauguration speech that he hopes to plant a flag on the Red Planet.
No word on if that’s ever going to happen. So, stay tuned.
