Aliens are hiding underground?

Humans can touch alien creatures, even alive, if they drill deep into Mars.

At the annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU), the research team represented by associate professor Joseph Michalski (Department of Earth Sciences, University of Hong Kong) emphasized the possibility of survivors. Mars is in the form of the subterranean bacteria of this planet , just like the underground worlds of Earth exist.

According to Professor Michalski, the recent Martian missions aimed at finding life on the planet's surface, at places with signs of ancient water. However, since no life has appeared on the surface of Mars, there may have been many "Martian citizens" in the form of bacteria gathering underground.

The research is based on the planet's life-development model, the planet used to compare itself is Earth. In recent decades, underground expeditions on Earth have revealed deep biosphere. With many similarities, the underground life of the red planet can be similarly formed.

The data also show that several billion years ago, when the Solar System was still young, Mars was quite similar to the Earth but then it was lost from school. Therefore, it is bombarded by extremely strong radiation from other elements in space, leading to extremely difficult to survive on the ground.

Talking to Live Science, Associate Professor Michalski said scientists had previously shown that Mars and Earth life formed almost simultaneously , about 3.8 to 3.9 billion years ago, in some environments on both planets, including underground hydrothermal environments are quite similar to what we see on Earth today. This time before Mars lost its magnetic field and thus, the earth could still preserve that life.

The team estimates the underground community on Mars may have evolved very rich and diverse. On Earth, an estimate of the number of bacteria in deep biosphere accounts for nearly half of the total number of organisms on the planet. Scientists even believe that Mars's ground is easier to live on than Earth, because rocks beneath the Martian surface are more porous, which can form pockets for metabolism and oxygen. Mars's molten core has a lower temperature, so the bacteria will have a more pleasant environment when living in deep rocks.

Earlier, the multinational research group under the Deep Underground Carbon Observatory (DCO) project announced the discovery of a discovered "zombie" biosphere when drilled 2.5 km deep into the seabed on the left. land. It is estimated that this world has existed for thousands or even tens of millions of years in terms of light, pressure, and temperature that seem completely unsuitable for life. This underground biosphere is up to 2-2.3 billion km ³ , which is nearly double the entire ocean on the earth's surface combined.
