On Mars there are rocks, as on Earth, can produce hydrogen.
The rocks of the Hebrides (Scotland) indirectly confirm the possibility of life on Mars.
The fact that the Islands of Barra and Uist have some similarities with the red planet.
Scientists discovered that rocks on the Islands have changed because of the aftershocks, resulting in the produced hydrogen in the earth’s crust. The rock is on Mars. This suggests that there may also be hydrogen, and, consequently, the conditions for life.
– Earthquakes cause friction, we analysed ancient rocks in the Hebrides and understand how to produce hydrogen. It is a condition for the life of microbes, ” said Professor John Parnell from the University of Aberdeen.
NASA plans to study the seismic activity on Mars in 2018, and the researchers hope that their version is confirmed.
