Nasa’s Curiosity rover claims to have found organic matter preserved on Mars, indicating it was once home to life.
The complex organic matter is believed to have been buried and preserved in ancient sediments that formed a vast lake bed on Mars billions of years ago.

The finding suggests Martian lakes were once a soup of carbon-based compounds necessary for life. The source and origin of the discovered organic matter is unknown at this point, but it all points to the view and conclusion that we are a human race still have a lot to learn about aspects of the history of the universe, and what the future holds for science and discovery as a whole.
The organic matter apparently discovered is another step in the direction of suggesting ancient life on mars. Suggestions of past life on mars are not new, and have been made a few times in the past. The announcement made by NASA today is further evidence that the organisation is gradually hinting that there once was life on mars.
In fact, it is pushing the view in many circles of aliens, because evidence of past life is always moving towards suggestions of present life

“With these new findings, Mars is telling us to stay the course and keep searching for evidence of life,” Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for the Science Mission Directorate at Nasa headquarters in Washington. “I’m confident that our ongoing and planned missions will unlock even more breathtaking discoveries on the Red Planet.”
The new announcement arises from two new studies that reveal vast detail about how methane exists on the planet, as well as the unexpected organic molecules that are preserved in its soil..
It is believed the curiosity rover thought to once have been a large lake of that water, inside Gale Crater. Scientists found the new findings, which suggest the water lake had all the ingredients for life to sustain life. It is no longer a mystery to those in the know that anything is possible in the mysterious universe in which we exist.
We can expect a lot more announcements from NASA, who by now would be confident that there are deep discoveries to be made.
