The discovery is a boost to the rover's mission: finding signs of ancient life on Mars.

Note: Organic matter does not mean life. It is a precursor to life. It does make the possibility of life on ancient Mars more likely.

    Itll be interesting to see the results once the samples are brought back next decade. I hope we can make mars a “national park” so we don’t screw with it too much.

      I hope we can make mars a “national park” so we don’t screw with it too much.

      Unfortunately, I think it’s much more likely that we will exploit it for any resources we can.
