Yes, there are definitely
fossils on Mars, and we will
find conclusive evidence of this in my/your lifetime (unless you're already 65+). The
proof of water on Mars is everywhere, the proof of
ancient oceans and
lakes is
everywhere, and this water existed
there for ten of millions to hundreds of millions of years. There was life on Mars, there may still be
life on Mars (we've already discovered
frozen water ice in quantity and not just in
permafrost).
We're going to
discover life on one or more of Jupiter's moons. Is the life we discover
in either place going to be intelligent? No, it's going to be microbial (or at least 'primitive') on
Mars and
Callisto, and perhaps more advanced on or
Europa or possibly
Titan (animals/plant life bigger than bacteria).
There is life out there besides what we have on this tiny planet we call home. When we discover it, there is going to be a lot of rethinking regading
our existence.
