Robert Zubrin says that there are no contamination issues involved in 
colonizing Mars, because microbes get transferred between the planets all the 
time on meteorites. His ideas get a lot of publicity, and so did a paper 
earlier this year "The overprotection of Mars". However there is another 
possibility, that life on Mars might be interestingly different from Earth life.
So, how easy is it for a microbe to travel on a meteorite from Earth to Mars or 
in the other direction? Is this something that happens often, and can many 
species do this? Or is this something rare and unusual, that perhaps never 
happened at all? 
Much of this derives from the American National Research Council (NRC) study in 
2009 which came to the opposite conclusion to Zubrin and this recent paper. 
Tons of meteorites from Mars 
We do receive many meteorites from Mars. You can tell by the small samples of 
Martian atmosphere trapped in the rocks, which ........
