according to a recent nasa-johnson space flight center news release, magnetite crystals have been found in the Martian meteorite "ALH84001". this, according to the report, this suggests a primative life form existed on Mars in the far past. the report says there are 16 Martion meteorites which have been found on Earths surface. It would seem likely that there are far more earth-born meteorites, some of which may contain early signatures of life from home, yet we never hear of these in the media. thoughts? steve
