hould be some kind of radiation-tolerant microorganism,
The surface of Mars is extremely harsh and dangerous for life,
Since the environment of Mars is so harsh, it is impossible for the humanoid Martians to exist in our imagination, and even other ordinary creatures we know cannot survive on it,
On Earth, there are also some places where the environment is quite harsh, but there is still life,
For example, a halophilic archaea lives in the cold and highly saline environment of Antarctica.
The surface of these bacteria is covered with a hydration film,
It is beneficial to resist high-salt and dry environments, while halophilic archaea belong to extremophiles,
Extremophiles are a general term for a class of microorganisms that are suitable for living in extreme environments.
These microorganisms are not only resistant to cold, drought, and high salt, but also
It can also thrive in extreme conditions such as extreme heat, high pressure, strong radiation, oxygen-free and heavy metals.
Since Deinococcus radiodurans can live in harsh environments similar to those on Mars,
then it should also be able to live on Mars,
So if there really is life on Mars, it might be Deinococcus radiodurans,
While Deinococcus radiodurans is just one of astrobiologists' speculations about life on Mars,
Martian life may also be creatures not found on Earth,
No matter what kind of life, to survive on Mars,
Must have the ability to adapt to strong radia
