Could it be water on Mars?
National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA is continuing its research on the planet Mars. NASA, satellites looking at the first rock dust analysis of Curiosity on Mars , the Red Planet was concluded on the microorganisms that might be hosted in the past.
Curiosity examined sample of rock dust which taken from an old piece of a rock in a laboratory which located in spacecraft on the planet.
Researchers said sample from an area known as Yellowknife Cove contains oxygen . hydrogen and chemicals such as carbon support life.
Mars Research Program leader Michael Meyer announced the findings of the research NASA’s center in Washington: “In our review , we conclude that the presence of minerals on Mars is necessary

NASA’s research about on Mars
In 2004, NASA sent down to the planet of Mars Opportunity spacecraft on Mars for 8 years, walking around and collecting the sample with a width of 4 centimetres from the surface scraper. Chemical and physical analyses on the surface of Mars, where the vehicle has reached the Endeavour Crater. It analyzed soil samples received from here. In its review in 2012, vehicle found clayey rocks. The most important result , Mars have non-acidic water. This year, the crater of clay minerals in non-acidic neutral water it is known that the effect can occur with.
Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) is a robotic space probe mission to Mars launched by NASA on November 26, 2011, which successfully landed Curiosity, a Mars rover, in Gale Crater on August 6, 2012.The overall objectives include investigating Mars habitability, studying its climate and geology, and collecting data for a manned mission to Mars. The rover carries a variety of scientific instruments designed by an international team.
The MSL mission has four scientific goals: Determine the landing site's habitability including the role of water, the study of the climate and the geology of Mars. It is also useful preparation for a future manned mission to
