Mighty Martian meteorite lands at the Museum | Natural History Museum

A rare Martian meteorite that could help unravel the mysteries of Mars has arrived at the Natural History Museum in London today, obtained with the support of a donor.
The meteorite is the largest piece from a shower of stones that fell to Earth in Morocco last July, near the village of Tissint. The Tissint meteorite weighs 1.1kg and is now the largest Martian meteorite in the Museum's collections.

I think there might be life on Mars. There could be microbes living in Mars' ice caps. There might also be life in Europa and Enceladus.
