Billions of years ago, when life emerged on Earth, the climate of Mars could have been Earth-like as well, with a thicker atmosphere than today and oceans of liquid water. A study funded by NASA and international partners indicates this period ...

   For how long was Mars habitable?

   • Scientists have discovered that Mars would have had conditions right for life to survive for approximately 700,000 years between 3.8 and 3.1 billion years ago. By analyzing rocks from the Gale crater—a 96 mile wide depression that was once a vast lake—the conditions on Mars during these periods have been shown.

   Could life have been on Mars 448 billion years ago?

   • Link Copied! Life could have found a way to establish on Mars 4.48 billion years ago, according to a new study. That’s when gigantic meteorites stopped crashing into the Red Planet and inhibiting life. Life could have thrived between 3.5 billion and 4.2 billion years ago, which predates the earliest evidence of life on Earth by 500 million years.
