gradually created an environment conducive to more complex life forms, the exact opposite happened on Mars, according to a team of scientists led by astrobiologist Boris Sauterey from the Institut de Biologie de l’Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris, France.
Sauterey and his team conducted a complex computer modeling study that simulated the interaction of what we know about the ancientand lithosphere of Mars with hydrogen-consuming microbes similar to those that existed on ancient Earth. The researchers found that while on Earth the methane produced by those microbes gradually warmed the planet, Mars instead cooled down, driving the microbes into deeper and deeper layers of the planet's crust to survive.
"At that time, Mars would have been relatively wet and relatively warm, between minus 10 degrees and 20 degrees Celsius [14 degrees Fahrenheit and 68 degrees Fahrenheit]," Sauterey told Space.com."It had liquid water in the form of rivers, lakes and maybe oceans on its surface. But its atmosphere was quite different from that of Earth. It was as dense, but richer in carbon dioxide and hydrogen, both of which acted like potent warming gasses.
Sauterey and his team identified three locations where traces of these ancient microbes would have most likely survived closer to the surface. These locations include
