The Internet is “buzzing” discussions of the statement of the main researcher program rover Curiosity geologist John Grotzinger of the California Institute of Technology. 
Open source photo Scientist announces that Curiosity has discovered something amazing and sensational in the sample of Martian soil. However, what exactly got into the analyzer of the scientific instrument SAM, in NASA did not report, explaining that the information is sensational and requires additional verification. According to preliminary data, an official statement with all the necessary details will be done at a meeting of the american geophysical union in San Francisco, which will be held from December 3 to 7, 2012. At NASA note that the discovery of the rover is so important that needs numerous cross-checks, therefore from comments scientists refuse to reporters. Curiosity likely discovered organic molecules that contain carbon and uniquely point to the existence of Martian life in the distant past, and maybe even more recently. Until now, all missions to Mars have not found no signs of living organisms on the Red Planet. Phoenix, Viking, and orbiting probes only hints that once on Mars were quite comfortable living conditions, and in some places, bacteria could survive and Today. The wildest theories have already arisen in discussions on the Internet about finding Curiosity: from bacterial colonies to residues highly developed civilization. Some scientists warn that not worth the wait for such incredible finds. So planetary scientist Peter Smith from the University of Arizona says the rover could find simple organic compounds that hit Mars from the belt asteroids. This will indicate that Mars is present “building blocks” necessary for the origin of life. On wet and warm ancient Mars, they could well become the basis of the bacterial of life. Smith emphasizes that Curiosity’s complex organic life hardly could find, even if it existed on Mars. Simply the chances of accidentally scooping up such an important find are very, very low.
