Ah, yes, our archeon bacterial friend, Thermus Aquaticus. Supplier of the enzyme Thermus Aquaticus polymerase, the basis of the PCR DNA technology!

What does that have to do with Mars? They should be down in the Antarctican deserts. (Yes, there are deserts in Antarctica... thousands of square miles of broken rock. )

recent conjecture by some says that Mars looks like "desert" lands.

if, at one time, it may have had ocean vents or other features that could render similar life forms thus tying earth and mars together from a environ point of view.

good point about deserts in antarctica. thanks.
