Gardening on Mars

The New York Times reports that the soil on Mars could support plant life. The story leads with this paragraph:

"Stick an asparagus plant in a pot full of Martian soil, and the asparagus might grow happily, scientists announced Thursday."

Mmmmmmm...Martian asparagus...

Read the whole story here.

So there are signs of life on Mars. Here's hoping it's intelligent life and not the kind that wants to come here and blow stuff up, like in the movies.

Come and blow things up?? They're probably terrified of us.
