New photo shows Mars particle nearly identical to Earthly microbes.
A Mars particle scanned by an atomic force microscope on board
Phoenix is nearly identical to an Earthly microbe species in size, shape and color. The Earthly species is halomonas campisalis of the halophile family of microbes. A new photo shows the Earthly species measures 2 X 1.3 micron , while the Mars "particle" is "about" 1.85 X 1 micron according to NASA. They are all red and show the same morphology in the following figures. Fig. 1: an Earthly microbe (halomonas campisalis), in expanded view with scale bar. http://www.wretch.cc/album/show.php?...555269912&p=84 Fig. 2: Mars particle in AFM image http://www.wretch.cc/album/show.php?...555257183&p=79
