Mars is called the source of life on Earth

Boron in a meteorite from Mars found by scientists under the leadership of James Stevens (James Stephenson) of the astrobiology Institute of NASA at the University of Hawaii at Manoa (USA). They claim that salts of boron are necessary for the emergence of life.
Component, which is needed for the origin of life — the molybdenum oxide was brought from ancient Mars to Earth by a meteorite, says scientist who presented the results of their research at the conference of the European geochemical Association in Florence.
His hypothesis Benner, in his words, allows two of the paradox. First, it explains their own organic molecules, even when exposed to light or heat, does not give rise to life, and turn into some kind of resin. Benner thinks, turning this process on the way to further evolution and the origin of life can molybdenum and boron.





Another paradox, which allows the hypothesis of the Martian origin of life, lies in the fact that the ancient Earth was completely covered with water. Which greatly hinders the formation of clusters of boron, which detect only in very dry places such as Death Valley in America. In addition, water damage RNA. On Mars, according to the scientist, not water covered the entire surface of the planet, so that the molecules from which life originated, was in contact with her, but not dwell in it.
