They're basing this off the composition of meteorites? Speculation galore!

I say we go there and do some drilling, then we'll know for sure.

I know the whole colonization of mars thing invovles teraforming the planet. Sounds amazing but at the same time impossibly expensive. When I was young I thought I'd see it in my lifetime but in the world we live in today I'm not sure it's going to happen anytime soon.

I want to see them find human remains, long dead.... Then that will cause waves with certain groups.

I wonder if there ever was a civilization below the surface. Holy cow imagine how our world would change over night with the discovery of some long lost ET life.
