NASA have finally found proof of alien life on Mars following the discovery that the Red Planet once had an atmosphere similar to Earth.
The Curiosity Rover found high-levels of manganese oxides on the rocks on the surface of the planet, which NASA say strongly suggests that life on Mars existed in the past.

Another recent finding includes proof of ancient lakes on Earth’s closest neighbour, as well as the belief water once flowed freely there.
The discovery of the manganese oxides could be the strongest clue that life once existed as they are formed here on Earth by “atmospheric oxygen or microbes,” said Nina Lanza, a planetary scientist at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico.
She added: “Now we’re seeing manganese oxides on Mars, and we’re wondering how the heck these could have formed?
“These high manganese materials can’t form without lots of liquid water and strongly oxidising conditions.
