  1. We may have found evidence for past #life on #Mars from an era, when subsurface brine could have supported #methanogens.

    But life requires liquid water, and it is largely nonexistent near the surface today. This global drying may have been caused by the microbial life itself.

  6. The environmental conditions, energy sources and ecology of terrestrial #methanogens thriving in deep crystalline fractures, sub-sea hypersaline lakes and subglacial water bodies can be considered as analogs of a hypothetical habitable #Martian subsurface.

    Mars may have a 4.3-8.8 km-deep regolith habitat at the mid-latitude location of Acidalia Planitia, that might fit the requirements of Martian methanogens.
