Event Description
The search for signatures of past life on Mars is a daunting task. Yet, Mars seems to have had all the ingredients for life to persist in its early history: abundant water, biochemical elements and energy sources for reproductive and metabolic functions. As speculated for Earth, life on Mars may have arisen in hot volcanic environments, relying on chemical energy from interactions of hot water and rock. Come travel into steaming volcanoes deep into the heart of the Americas to find out if Martian life could have existed in similar settings.
