Nasa Found Life On Mars - Seriously - GoFuckYourself.com

ALIEN microbes living just below the Martian soil are responsible for a haze of methane around the Red Planet, Nasa scientists believe.

The gas, belched in vast quantities in our world by cows, was detected by orbiting spacecraft and from Earth using giant telescopes.

Nasa are today expected to confirm its presence during a briefing at their Washington HQ.

And the find is seen as exciting new evidence that Martian microbes are still alive today.

Some scientists reckon methane is also produced by volcanic processes. But there are NO known active volcanoes on Mars.

Furthermore, Nasa has found the gas in the same regions as clouds of water vapour, the vital ?drink? needed to support life.

Experts speculate that the methane is being emitted as a waste product by organisms called methanogens living in water beneath underground ice.

And they would have to be alive today because the methane would otherwise have been lost from the Martian atmosphere.

John Murray ? a member of the Mars Express European space probe team ? believes the mini-Martians may be in a form of suspended animation and could even be REVIVED.

He has found overwhelming evidence of a vast frozen ocean beneath the dust near the Martian equator where simple life could have thrived as microbes.

Today?s briefing will feature a star panel of Mars experts headed by Michael Meyer, chief scientist for Nasa?s Mars programme.

UK Mars expert Professor Colin Pillinger believes the methane can only point to the presence of life on the planet.

His ill-fated Beagle 2 probe was carrying a laboratory that would have looked directly for such signs of life when it crashed on Christmas Day 2003.

Prof Pillinger told The Sun last night: ?Methane is a product of biology. For methane to be in Mars? atmosphere, there has to be a replenishable source.

?The most obvious source of methane is organisms. So if you find methane in an atmosphere, you can suspect there is life.

?It?s not proof, but it makes it worth a much closer look.?

Nasa?s findings confirm studies by Europe?s Mars Express probe, which has been orbiting the planet for five years and also reported signs of methane in 2004.

Britain?s top space expert Nick Pope last night hailed the new evidence of life as ?the most important discovery of all time?.

He said: ?What could be more profound than to know it?s not just us out there?

"We?ve really only scratched the surface ? it?s an absolute certainty that there is life out there and we are not alone.

?If there is life on Mars then the logical conclusion is that there must be life elsewhere too.

?If it?s happened here on Earth, then why shouldn?t it happen anywhere? The implication is this is a universal law.

?Mars is very similar to Earth. It?s about the same size, it?s a rocky inner planet.

?Most scientists believe it probably has liquid water which is almost universally agreed as the pre-requisite for life. I am certain there is other life in the Universe and, most likely, intelligent life.?

The Red Planet has gripped the public imagination for more than a century as a possible home for aliens.

But life could not survive on its surface because, unlike the Earth, Mars has no magnetic shield to protect it against deadly sun radiation.

The planet resembles our own in many ways. It is made of rock, it has an atmosphere and weather systems.

Although much smaller with a diameter of around 4,222 miles, Mars? day is just 40 minutes longer than ours and its tilted axis gives it seasons.

Water has been found in the form of buried ice and scientists believe that two billion years ago, Mars was covered with liquid oceans.

Proof that water is still on Mars came in 2007 when Mars Express used ground-piercing radar to study the region around the planet?s South Pole.

Nasa?s latest lander Phoenix dug up chunks of Martian ice last year. It swiftly evaporated into the thin atmosphere.

Nasa have controversially hit the headlines before for claiming evidence for Martians.

In 1996, they said they had discovered fossilised organisms in a meteorite from the planet.

But other scientists were sceptical.

Today?s conference will be broadcast live online by NASA TV (www.nasa.gov/ntv) at 7pm.

life on mars a great song.

David Bowie:Life On Mars

It's a God awful small affair
To the girl with the mousey hair
But her mummy is yelling, "No!"
And her daddy has told her to go
But her friend is no where to be seen
Now she walks through her sunken dream
To the seats with the clearest view
And she's hooked to the silver screen
But the film is a sadd'ning bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
She could spit in the eyes of fools
As they ask her to focus on

Sailors
Fighting in the dance hall
Oh man!
Look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man!
Wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?

It's on America's tortured brow
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
But the film is a sadd'ning bore
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
It's about to be writ again
As I ask you to focus on

Sailors

I guess the first tip off that it is a fake story is that methane was found in the highly volatile atmosphere of Mars... BOOM!

After Shock Media · 01-14-2009, 08:35 PM

It is past 7pm in all time zones, guess NASA did not get the memo.

StuartD · 01-14-2009, 08:35 PM

microbes? So there is more advanced species on Mars than there is on GFY??

Spunky · 01-14-2009, 08:39 PM

Interesting read,anything is possible I guess

Ethersync · 01-14-2009, 08:45 PM

They mention an upcoming Nasa news conference and link to Nasa. We'll see if it's true soon enough...

The Sun is a tabloid newspaper. They were the first to publish pictures of Prince Harry in the Nazi costume.

And no the Sun is not like the National Enquirer though it is a tabloid newspaper. They were the first to publish pictures of Prince Harry in the Nazi costume.

Ok, thats cool and all but there is no way that the Sun got this story before anyone else. If they did, I will dedicate an "i will suck your dick" thread to you my friend. Here's to the both of us!

I didn't write the article. I just found it linked off Drudge Report. It could be total bullshit, but I do not think they would post an article they were not sure about AND mention a news conference that is happening the same day.

You have a deal though, but I would like to donate the blowjob your are offering to BadDog

I think we should get over there as soon as possible, and squash the Mars microbe threat before they take over the Earth.

I also quote The Sun when backing up any news...

they have given us quite a few amazing nonsense stories during the years

mynameisjim · 01-14-2009, 09:46 PM

I've always hoped that extraterrestrial life would be found in my lifetime. Such a discovery is a pretty small blip in the timeline of history so to be around for it is like winning the lottery as far as odds go.

Hope it's true.

who · 01-15-2009, 12:34 PM

Way to spin the facts..

They have a theory because they found methane. They think this is evidence that there could be life on Mars.

That's not the same in any way as actually finding life there.

Exactly. The words "believe" and "suspect" means that they didn't find anything.
