PARIS: The mystery of methane on Mars may finally be solved as scientists Monday confirmed the presence of the life-indicating gas on the Red Planet as well as where it might have come from.
Furthermore, they conducted two parallel experiments to determine the most likely source of methane on Mars to be an ice sheet east of Gale Crater - itself long assumed to be a dried up lake. Using the data, Giuranna and the team divided the region around the crater into grids of 250 by 250 square kilometres.
"Methane is important because it could be an indicator of microbial life," he said."But life is not required to explain these detections because methane can be produced by abiotic processes."
