Life on Mars? NASA discovers potential biosignatures in Martian mudstones

NASA’s Perseverance rover has discovered mudstones in Mars’ Jezero Crater that contain organic carbon and unusual textures hinting at possible biosignatures. These findings suggest that ancient Martian environments may have supported chemical processes similar to those on Earth, where microbial life thrives. While the team stresses they have not discovered evidence of life, the rocks show chemical reactions and mineral formations that could point to biological activity.
