An unknown force killed life on Mars An international team of scientists came to the conclusion that Mars was previously inhabited, but an unknown force destroyed all living organisms on it, according to SpaceCom. Researchers analyzed soil samples from Gale Crater and concluded that Mars was inhabited in ancient times. Five years ago, the Curiosity rover mined clay minerals very similar in properties to glauconite clays. These complex hydrous aluminosilicates are common on Earth and form exclusively in stable ecosystems. The results of this study allowed planetary scientists to make the assumption that for millions of years Mars was suitable for the existence of biological life, that is, living organisms lived here. Some scientists are inclined to believe that life originated on Mars, and migrated to Earth millions of years ago. They believe that millions of years ago, the Red Planet underwent a monstrous, mysterious anomalous catastrophe. After that, large fragments of Mars broke off, flying into space. Some of them reached Earth. One of these meteorites was discovered in Antarctica. It was then that scientists concluded that these fragments never got hot enough to destroy the microorganisms inside. In 2020, Japanese scientists were able to establish the age of bacteria found in a Martian meteorite. Alien bacteria were 4 billion years old. Researchers believe that it was then that the meteorite brought an extraterrestrial life form to our planet. Perhaps that we are all Martians.
