When NASA's $820 million rovers Spirit and Opportunity discovered signs of ancient standing water on Mars, there was obvious excitement. The agency's search for alien life is based on the strategy: "follow the water," and for obvious reasons. The only life we know is built on a scaffolding of carbon that floats in bags of water. Bacteria or brontosaurus, we're all made from the same basic recipe.

Past life is evident in Mars and I want to know based on your study what will be the possible image of this creature that once lived on this planet?
Thank you
