Der Mars ist vor allem ein Planet für Techdemos. Schnell erreichbar und relativ unkompliziert.

Seit Jahrzehnten werden dort Rover abgesetzt und kratzen im Sand, in der Hoffnung, Spuren von außerirdischem Leben zu finden.

Es gibt dafür wesentlich interessantere Orte in unserem Sonnensystem:

- Europa (Jupiter) und Enceladus (Saturn)

Warmer Salzwasserozean unter kilometerdickem Eis im Strahlungsgürtel ihres Planeten

- Titan (Saturnmond)

Dichte Atmosphäre, Methanseen und -flüsse, Dünen aus Kohlenwasserstoffen, Kryovulkane, Wolken aus Tholin, Stürme. unterirdischer Wasserozean.

Auf Titan ist die ESA 2005 mit der Huygens-Sonde gelandet.

Die Dragonfly-Mission ist geplant.

Meanwhile in #Enceladus:

' While the new findings do not show that there is life on Enceladus, Khawaja said they indicate there are complex chemical pathways at play that could lead to the formation of substances that could be biological relevant.

The results, he added, support plans by the European Space Agency (ESA) to investigate the moon for signs of life. "I think all the signals are green here for Enceladus," Khawaja said. '
