Nasa reveals life on Mars, The Sun
“ALIEN bugs are responsible for strong plumes of methane gas detected on Mars, it was claimed tonight.”
Reader note: I’m not certain what press release these folks read – or which press conference they watched – but no one “claimed” that the Methane found on Mars is produced by “Alien bugs” or any other biological process. But I guess this headline will sell more newspapers.
