Life on Mars: Researchers discover unexpected bacterial problem.. As of: February 8, 2024, 12:35 p.m Bacteria could survive on Mars, while humans cannot exist there without aids.

This represents a new challenge. Studies have already shown that bacteria can survive and multiply under conditions such as those found on meteorites and even on the International Space Station (ISS). The red planet Mars is hostile to life for humans, but it can apparently be a suitable habitat for certain microbes from Earth.
