 The search for life on Mars has become more urgent thanks in part to probes by the two
 rovers now roaming Mars’ surface and another spaceship that is orbiting the planet. In recent
 months, they’ve made a series of astonishing discoveries that, once again, tempt scientists to
 believe that Mars harbours life—or did so in the past. At a February conference in the
 Netherlands, an audience of Mars experts was surveyed about Martian life. Some 75 per cent
 of the scientists said they thought life once existed there, and of them, 25 per cent think that
 Mars harbours life today
