Two astrobiologists charge NASA killed Martian life with its space missions

Scientist Gilbert Levin insists his biology experiment proved life is in the Martian soil. Dirk Schulze-Makuch, an astrobiologist at Washington State University and his German colleague, Joop Houtkooper of Justus Liebig University charge NASA killed it.

Their explosive allegation—raised at the American Astronomical Society meeting in Seattle, Washington—raises one more doubt about the US space agency.

Scooped up and killed

When the Viking mission tested for life it detected hydrogen peroxide from oxidation. The two scientists claim the oxidation process didn’t come from the soil, but in the killing of Martian life scooped up and chemically destroyed by the robot space explorer.

The two have stirred up controversy—nothing new to NASA—with their report alleging the death of Martian life.

“It is interesting to note that the Viking experiments were conducted under too warm and wet conditions from the perspective of the hydrogen peroxide hypothesis for Martian life,” they concluded in their in-depth report. “If the hypothesis is true, it would mean we killed the Martian microbes during our first extraterrestrial contact.”

Expert Sir Gilbert V. Levin flatly states Mars has life

No doubt Gilbert Levin would agree with them. Levin continues to insist his biology experiment proved life was in the Martian soil sample.

“We obtained positive data corresponding with all the pre-mission criteria, which proved the existence of microbial life in the soil of Mars,” Levin told National Geographic. ["I Found Life on Mars in 1976, Scientist Says"]

In essence, the two scientists argue, NASA unwittingly killed exactly what they were seeking: life.

Some think reddish bacteria like this tints the Martian soil

NASA didn’t do it on purpose, Schulze-Makuch and Houtkooper rush to explain. The agency was just ignorant…

Increasing doubts…increasing fire   

In recent years NASA’s come under fire and increasing investigation for its alleged cover-ups and public suspicions of gross incompetency.

The beleaguered space agency’s fallen far since its glory days of Apollo. Initially led towards the heavens by its visionary genius, ex-Nazi rocket man Werner von Braun, NASA’s gone from a rising star to a falling one. It’s become politically correct and no longer has a focused mission or a manned space program.

Evidence of Martian life scattered across planet

Sir Charles Shults has cataloged stacks of images revealing the evidence of Martian life. The scientist has gathered proof—proof that NASA studiously ignores. ["A Fossil Hunter's Guide to Mars"]

During the Mars rover missions, scores of armchair astronauts screamed in disbelief as NASA systematically steered their little juggernauts towards fossil evidence and then blithely pressed the little rovers ahead, mindlessly crushing the precious fossils under their grinding treads.

NASA: Hard days ahead

According to a growing number of scientists and researchers NASA is hiding evidence of ancient technology scattered across planets and moons in the solar system, manipulating photos of artifacts on the Moon, Mars, Phobos and Titan ["NASA Whistleblower: Alien Moon Cities Exist"], ignoring evidence of fossils on Mars, dismissing proof of life on the Red Planet first discovered more than 30 years ago and massaging the data gleaned from satellites and computer modeling of climate change.

NASA caught changing color of Mars

Caught in the act of changing the color of the Martian sky and surface with red filters, NASA looks worse and worse as its credibility crumbles.

Some question why NASA would hide, ignore and censor evidence. After all, it could only serve to ignite the public’s interest in space exploration and missions back to the Moon and beyond to mysterious Mars.

Others say they have the answer: the United States of America has had a ‘secret space program’ since the 1960s. The US—they claim—has had bases on the Moon, and maybe Mars too, for almost 40 years. ["Claim: Secret American Base Discovered  on Moon"]

NASA faces hard choices and hard days ahead as the world’s other space agencies—in Europe, Russia, China, Japan and India—gear up with their own lunar missions and Mars probes.

What their cameras find there may spell the end of NASA.

      Is there anything mankind cannot destroy.

      Okay, I get why they’d want to cover up life on Mars, or elsewhere.
      We humans are a superstitious and fearful lot. And a significant portion of the population would plug their ears and cry aliens are demons or some other rubbish.

      But… why alter the colors of Mars? I don’t understand what the motive is there. So it has a blue sky?

      Anyone…?

    • The Red Pill

      Way to fuck up.

    • Tim Bravo

      Anon @ 11:42, one could speculate that an incentive for altering the color of Mars photos would be to psychologically drive home the thought of Mars as alien and uninhabitable. Research “Alternative 3″. If the average westerner saw Mars with a blue sky, they might look upon the planet as a viable option for habitation. They might then push harder to put man on Mars and explore it. That could potentially complicate the secret space program and infrastructure-building process for the elite who intend to leave us behind on the planet they killed called Earth.

      Regardless, it will not come to pass. All is well. Be not afraid.

      Has the OP/author heard of Andrew Basiago?
      Look him up, crucial part of the Life on Mars truth!
      Dont let some things of it all scare you off! Obama has also been to
      Mars as he worked in the same group at the time Basiago did. He has so much to share about life on mars check out his presentations he talks about his experiences going to mars via jumprooms in the covert US time travel & teleportation programs decadea ago. He began essentially training and teleporting eventually timetraveling as a child, and was photographed in the only surviving known photo of Abe Lincoln during the Gettysberg speech. There are peaceful beings on Mars. and biological and as well energetic life that we may not feel familiar with
      Wonder what nowadays has been going on up on Mars, we know colonies of different factions including the so called nwo elitists perhaps but perhaps not in our time?
      As we may now know there are probably colonies going to other timelines on mars as well, things in reality could be a lot more than ppl would imagine, folks life is more incredible than sci fi but u have been indoctrinated ever so such or much so shed your cultural patterns ans embrace your own light to grasp the truth with.

      Mars is perfectly habitable with a substantial terra-forming project. The loss of atmosphere was likely caused by a solar event which earth is also at risk of. Learning how to rebuilt that lost atmosphere may be worth doing because it could allow humans a simple if difficult means to survive future solar events on earth and mars by moving back and forth between planets. This is the only viable simple way of dodging moderate extinction level solar events. Obviously supernova major solar events would hit both planets but those are much more rare (billions of years instead of thousands or millions between major CME’s which happen to come directly at us)

      So killing a few microbes is a problem, why? Do they have families waiting for them back home or something? Oh, excuse me, I have to swat a mosquito. Dorks.

      Other countries have already sent missions both to the moon and mars. Some of the mission have revealed interesting things, but just like NASA, what is to stop these other space agencies from “altering” images just like NASA does? They may have directives to follow just like NASA.

      Oh yea, there are many many anomalies in space, many of them show up on NASA video footage:

      http://tinyurl.com/3brk5cp

      This footage was recorded directly from a NASA downlink, you can even see the Houston control center and computerized images with NASA logo. Though some of the narrator’s theories are speculative, there are some very interesting anomalies.

      Take note meteors are NOT self luminous outside the atmosphere, they do not make 90 degree turns, do not follow the space shuttle, nor do they make circles around the ISS. Satellites are not self luminious, are often too small to be seen from the altitude of the shuttle, do not orbit to the west, nor make 90 degree turns, or accelerate rapidly in the atmosphere.

      (It also appears as if someone is “shooting” at these anomalies, it is much clearer if you buy the DVD and watch it on a big screen)

      Astronauts have been seeing these anomalies quite literally from the beginning of NASA.

      Another great video:

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlLN_Jcg1pc

      Astronauts have seen many anomalous object that appeared to be intelligently controlled. The following video includes the famous “bogey at 10 o’clock high”:

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnTzdwMT0g4

      Gemini astronauts reported seeing anomalies, nearly all shuttle missions encountered anomalies, and often times at very close range.

      Possibly we lived on mars for a very long time had to move to earth as the climate was changing and eventually destroyed the planet (what is happening now on earth).

      Maybe once Mars atmosphere replenishes itself we will then go back.

      I was a scuba diver while in the Navy. One thing I figured out was no two seashells are identical, just like there are no 2 people on earth exactly alike, similar but not IDENTICAL. If there were 2 people exactly the same – one person could donate body parts without having to take anti-rejection drugs – dah. If you look at the bogus seashell pictures you will see it is the exact same picture and of the exact same lens / camera orientation. The markings (dots or dark spots) are exactly the same. The spots on the shell are Identical. This article MIGHT BE part truth but there is a lot of fiction or bold face lies – especially the seashell picture. I love a good conspiracy. I don’t believe we know the truth of whole story about JFK. I believe that there is more info about the fall of the Twin Towers than meets the press. I believe it but I cannot prove it due to financial resources and interventions of agencies in the U. S. Government. I realize our Government will lie to no end to line their pockets with our money and to support their rich buddies. But come on folks, wake up and realize a scam, a scare tactic, a bunch of garbage when you see it. This article about a seashell is a lie, plain and simple. Shame on the people that told the lie just to get a bunch (actually very few) people to shake in their boots or to have another unsubstantiated reason to distrust our Government Officials. Sorry – but I see no reason to lie and deceive about something so frivolous as what may or may not prove there was ever life on Mars. The fact is maybe there was life on Mars and maybe there is a life form that we can not detect or the Government has detected and not telling us about – but there is no reason to fabricate and deploy such erroneous trash. Look close and tell yourself if the seashells are exactly the same, ask yourself if there are any two people that are exactly the same. Put on your thinking caps and figure this out and make an intelligent and informed decision. I have enjoyed this site but the editors / webmaster really need to consider the truth vs ratings of the gullible. If more truth was printed – this site might have more also intelligent people viewing the site.

      As to NASA Viking missions finding evidence of life on Mars in 1976 I would refer you to Robert Jagstrow interview on the Barry Farber radio show of that year in which he express the opinion that the probe had killed something and I agree fake evidence of any kind is not needed to prove the case for life on Mars. Thou I do wish they own up to the face on Mars Terra Nova on Mars anyone.

      And so, where would that “more truth” you request be generated? What government agency should we invoke? CIA, FBI, DEA, BATF, SCOTUS, COTUS, POTUS, White House Spin Machines? The Military/Industrial Complex? How about the janitors at the White House?

      Which government agency do we give our reliance? Surely not NASA, as one can readily see NASA has an army of busy little painters airbrushing over the images they take, doing such an incompetent job that they sometime don’t even paint out the whole artifact, but leave parts visible. Other times they just “splop” an opague blotch in the general shape of what is airbrushed out that doesn’t even hope to fit the terrain, which often appears to be a giant opague phallus thrusting into the air.

      Even government agencies need to wake up and smell the truth that is permeating the world as we speak. It will take some getting accustomed to, obviously, as governments have been blinding the citizenry (serfs) since time immemorial. The last thing in the world one should do is take any government’s word for anything. Lump all MSM in there with it.

      Indeed, the only purpose of any government on earth (for good or bad) is to control the citizens and exempt the controllers from ultimate responsibility. Anything that is perceived as a threat to this arrangment is attacked by the control mechanisms. This is any and all government in its smallest nutshell.

      The only problem is, when too much evil permeates the controllers, the only one that suffers is the serf/citizen. It is what is happening now. There is not a benevolent ruler in the world today. But there may be potentials coming to the fore. I would encourage the potentials.

      The ‘life’ on Mars is minuscule at best, and certainly not thriving. Without the abundant water that once existed on Mars, life there has all but ceased.

      We know water once covered vast regions of Mars due to the patterns of hydro-erosion on the Martian landscape.

      Emmanuel Velikovsky speculated that Mars came close to earth numerous times. He cited geologic features on Mars that support this supposition. Earth being larger than Mars may have extracted the water from the Martian surface at the time of the last encounter. This would account for the cataclysmic events including the global flood 4300 years ago.

      The above photograph of a shell fossil on the Martian surface, nearly identical to earth varieties, further supports this theory.

      The PTB want their version of reality to prevail and don’t want actual truth to be known, thus the cover-up.

      Man is the most evil thing in the known universe. It will not be satisfied until it destroys its own planet, and any other planet it can reach out and touch.
