I am confident that life once thrived on Mars and may well still exist there today.
Of course, it's a dream to go to Mars. I want to find out whether there was life there or not. And if there was, then why did it die out? What sort of catastrophe happened?
There are countless space activities that would be no less exciting than the moon missions were, I have no doubt. The search for life on Mars, for example.
To unambiguously settle the questions of whether there was life on Mars, it will take scientists down on the surface.
I'm absolutely compelled for NASA to send international astronauts to Mars to find out if Mars ever harbored life.
As far as whether there is life there on Mars or whether there was actually ever life there, I don't know. It would be great to find out, though.
I can remember in early elementary school when the Russians launched the first satellite. There was still so much unknown about space. People thought Mars was probably populated.
