A meteorite that was blasted off of Mars by a giant impact in the ancient past was found in Antarctica. When observed under a very powerful microscope, scientists found structures in the rock that some believed to be fossilized miniature bacteria. Scientists have not yet reached a consensus on how the structures formed or if indeed they are fossilized life. No other evidence of life on Mars has been found.
