Here are today’s most important updates from the realm of Science and Space. Curiosity Spots Organic Molecules Never Seen Before On Mars: Sign of Life? NASA's Curiosity rover has uncovered a range of organic molecules on Mars - some of the same kinds of chemicals that, on Earth, are considered the basic building blocks of life. The discovery comes from a new type of chemical experiment conducted directly on the Martian surface, marking a significant step forward in how scientists study the planet, Space.com reported. The rover detected seven different organic compounds in a dried-up lakebed near Mars' equator, five of which had never been seen on the planet before. While it's unclear whether these organic compounds are linked to ancient life, were delivered by meteorites, or formed geologically, the discovery suggests that if life did exist on Mars, chemical signs of it could still be present today. Why is ...
