As we know Mars is the closest, apart of the Moon, space object to Earth. In consequence it is very similiar to our home planet. Temperature is a little lower but it is tolerable for species from Earth. The only problem is atmosphere. The oxygene, without which the life wouldn't be possible is scarce there. But once upon a time ...Mars was similiar to Earth! And there was a life! Was it an intelligent life? We don't know. Yet. But some weeks ago scientists announced fact that they had found a meteorite from Mars, which contains martial bacterias! It is the first sign of "non - earth" life!

Does Everybody know about two probes sent by NASA in the victinity of Mars? It is unexplained why BOTH of them went off!!! And latest news - the russian probe launched 16 of November 1996. Nobody can explain that the hundreds of russian scientist lost control on it after 20 minutes from start!!! Is it a chance? I think not! The probe has fallen to Pacific November 17...

Mars has many misteries. Pyramids, face, canions ... What the heck they are ?!? Those questions are still without answers, but in my opinion they are rests of ancient civilization, which had once lived on the Mars. What are your opinions? Please send comments on my mail addres :brandtm@waw.pdi.net

I would like appeal to all people who are more experienced in matter of Mars to send me comments and hints. I'll try to correct any mistakes and develop this page as well.
