Do you believe that there is life on Mars?
The question is, Is there intelligent life on Earth?

But seriously, life is a natural phenomenon. I'm convinced that it pervades our galaxy and the universe generally, wherever conditions permit, and that it has the same bio-chemical basis everywhere if occurs. And yes, I do think we will eventually discover primordial life, at least, elsewhere in our own solar system--possibly on Mars, or on that watery moon of Jupiter, etc.

(I also believe there's a real likelihood that intelligent aliens crash-landed at Roswell, but that's sort of a different story.)
