proof of life on mars part 3
My friend Chip Shults appeared on the Art Bell show last Sunday; unfortunately I can't get that up here in Calgary (that I know of) without paying a monthly fee to coasttocoastam.com (umm... you guys? ever hear of a little thing called advertising? expanded customer base = more advertising revenue, and the internet is potentially a wider audience than the current radio network). He has continued to expand his website, strengthening his argument that macroscopic life similar to life on Earth of the same era existed on Mars. Soon his scientific paper with a full methodology and summary of results will be complete; several totally different experiments may be devised to test the theory for weaknesses, but ultimately the answers will need to await the next generation of Mars landers, which would be able to look for signatures of life and life processes.
Should Chip's theory be validated, he stands to win the Nobel prize. That validation could come as soon as a five years from now, with the Mars Science Laboratory.
