Is there life on Mars?


"NASA’s Perseverance rover, shown in this artistic rendering, landed at Mars’ Jezero Crater in February 2021 and started gathering soil samples soon after that. Although Perseverance is not looking directly for organisms living on Mars today, the rover is collecting data that could be used to identify biosignatures of ancient microbial life.

Another question about this topic again. The answer to that question is very complicated. Before samples from the red planet are transferred to the BL-5 level laboratory where research teams can make the real chemical and microscopic analysis all answers are open. The BL-5 laboratories are required because those samples pollute very easily. 


"Electron microscopy revealed chain structures resembling living organisms in meteorite fragment ALH84001". (Wikipedia/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allan_Hills_84001). Those remnants could be bacteria fossils that could have a Martian origin. 

And if some DNA from Earth touches them. That makes it hard to detect the DNA or RNA samples from those bacteria remnants. Nobody believes that there are living bacteria on Mars. But there might be some bacteria fossils, there could be remnants of their genomes. 

The fact is before intensive research the question about primitive lifeforms on Mars is open. And the problem is that Mars lost its atmosphere in multiple meteorite impacts. At least three times Mars lost its lithosphere in deep impacts with asteroids. In that process, the position of the red planet changed. The shell of that planet melted. And that destroyed all lifeforms. But it's possible. That there still are DNA or RNA remnants in those stones. 

The big problem with searching for extraterrestrial bacteria is the lack of extraterrestrial DNA or RNA. No sample involves DNA that is 100% proven to be extraterrestrial. So without that information, it's very difficult to separate extraterrestrial bacteria from Earth bacteria. And the problem is that bacteria exchange their genomes. That means there is very hard to prove the extraterrestrial origin of some bacteria fossils even if there are some DNA or RNA remnants. 


And finally, "the face, Cydonia and Little Green men.




The "Cydonia City" is named because of the shape of those forms. The fact is that the "city" is an interesting place. And in some theories that is an abandoned alien city. The fact is that those pyramid-shaped structures. Along with " the face", are interesting because the geological process behind them is extraordinary. 

The remarkable thing in Cydonia is found in Wikipedia. 

"Cydonia lies in the planet's northern hemisphere in a transitional zone between the heavily cratered regions to the south and relatively smooth plains to the north. Some planetologists believe that the northern plains may once have been ocean beds and that Cydonia may once have been a coastal zone. It is in the Mare Acidalium quadrangle". (Wikipedia/Cydonia (Mars) So that area was a good place to establish a nuclear plant. And researchers cannot pass that kind of thing. 


Theoretically, we can create green skin for ourselves very easily. By using genetic engineering and nanotechnology, we can connect the genome that makes the chlorophyll in our skin cells. And that thing turns our skin photosynthetic. We must remember that there are also green snakes and other green reptilians on Earth. Chlorophyll would turn the skin green and make it possible. Animals can create sugars and vitamin C in their skin. 

The other interesting things are the "face" and "Cydonia. The problem is that those things are very interesting because there is a possibility that the "face" was a short-term geological structure. But what forms that structure? Also the "ruins" are interesting and that opens new questions. What is behind those structures? The thing is that three images from Viking 1 to Mars Global Surveyor 2001 show that the structure was real. But the geological process behind it is anyway interesting. 

But what if researchers find remnants of the things like human enterobacterium from Mars samples? That thing makes very big thoughts in the minds of researchers. There are lots of mysteries in the universe. And one of the things that we might think about is the possibility that some Earth bacteria will be found on Mars in an area. there are no probes. When we search for the origin of life we cannot close anything away from our minds. When we are talking and reading about myths of ancient aliens. We must keep our minds open.

Researchers think that the multiverse is not fiction anymore.

Multiverse means that our universe is one of many universes. The reason why researchers and scientists believe that this is true is that logical. About 50 years ago people didn't know that there were other solar systems. Exoplanets were only theories in the 80's.  About 400 years ago people thought that our Sun was the only star in the universe. Edvin Hubble proved that our galaxy, Milky Way is one of many galaxies. Then researchers found that galaxies form groups, and supergroups. That means that today we think that the universe, where we live is the ultimate supergroup of galactic supergroups. And logically thinking there should be other universes. We believe that the universe began its existence in an event or series of events called the Big Bang. That event did not begin, because the energy that formed material should come from somewhere. The Big Bang was not one "bang" or explosion. It was a series of events where material took form. Or the energy level that it h...

Spinning cylinders prove a 50-year-old physics problem.

"Scientists at the University of Southampton have experimentally proven the Zel’dovich effect by amplifying electromagnetic waves using a spinning metal cylinder, confirming a theoretical prediction from the 1970s and opening new avenues in technology and quantum physics.

Using relatively simple equipment – a resonant circuit interacting with a spinning metal cylinder – and by creating the specific conditions required, we have now been able to do this.” (ScitechDaily, 50-Year-Old Physics Theory Proven for the First Time With Electromagnetic Waves) Researchers amplified electromagnetic waves using spinning metal cylinders.

What makes it hard to create a room-temperature superconductor?

"The discovery of wave-like Cooper pairs in Kagome metals introduces a new era in superconductivity research, offering potential for innovative quantum devices and superconducting electronics, driven by theoretical predictions and recent experimental validations. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Kagome Metals Unlocked: A New Dimension of Superconductivity) "Superconductivity is a set of physical properties observed in superconductors: materials where electrical resistance vanishes and magnetic fields are expelled from the material. Unlike an ordinary metallic conductor, whose resistance decreases gradually as its temperature is lowered, even down to near absolute zero, a superconductor has a characteristic critical temperature below which the resistance drops abruptly to zero. An electric current through a loop of superconducting wire can persist indefinitely with no power source" (Wikipedia, Superconductivity) Theoretically, a superconducting electric circu...
