And since you can't do that with assurance, we shouldn't send probes.


probes have been sterlized in the past, perhaps not perfect but pretty
good.


So when it's toasters you think 'close' is good enough, but when it's

Just being inside a habitat and depressurizing it for any reason will
allow earth bugs to get into the mars ecosphere..


Just launching them and landing them on mars will allow earth bugs to
get into the mars ecosphere..
