Mars: been there, done that

Re: "Are We Alone?", Opinion, September 22.

Initial photos returning from Nasa's new rover, Curiosity, on Mars reveal a barren and long-ruined topography. Earlier probes have disclosed a toxic atmosphere that is prone to frequent and violent storms.

Therefore, any question of extraterrestrial life has become rhetorical, as it is obvious that a human form of life has already populated Mars and moved on to its next victim.
