Hatch out a life form that could live on Mars were the conditions right!

Imagine this... 

What if there were eggs that could remain dry in the Martian soil for decades at a time! All they needed was a few special minerals and rain water to hatch. After hatching they grow so rapidly that their life cycle only needs a few weeks to reach adult hood in a temporary puddle, mate and lay eggs for the survival of their species before the cold dry desert reclaims their fleeting oasis receding into the sands. 

In as little as 2 weeks Aqua-Aliens can do everything needed for their species to survive in the deserts of Australia a place that has been likened by NASA's many exobiologist's  who study Mars today as possibly being very similar to ancient Mars which was according to one theory once a warmer and wetter place. 

Well, our Aqua Aliens (native clam shrimp) do just this! Actually, Aussie Clam Srimps  thrive in this kind of environment dry red dust environment. It is actually what nature designed these little guys for to fill a niche where other wise there would be no life to take advantage of all that water lying around . Isn't life just amazing?

You may be aware of the intense interest held by space agencies such as NASA currently focused on the "Red Planet". The recent discovery of vast quantities of water hidden just a few feet below the planet's surface, whole frozen oceans, and most recently conclusive proof that it has actually been raining on and off out on that distant Red Dot in our evening skies!

What are the implications for life? Mars has almost everything needed to support life.

Imagine for a moment being a planet other than our own, a vast, hot, red and desolate planet. Amongst the rocky plains, or perhaps between wind swept dunes, there is a puddle or two. All that remains after a suddenflash flood or just a meager down pour. The fresh water gleaming in the Martian sun.

If you could be there in your space suit you might kneel down and gaze into that puddle admiring the red-pink sky behind a distant mountain reflecting back at you from the water's surface. Then, suddenly out of the corner of your eye you see something rippling in the waters surface just over there. You move across to where it is, kneel at the puddle's edge, and take a closer look. If you didn’t have your helmet on you would be rubbing your eyes in disbelief. Could that be? Is that actually a life form swimming in the shallows?

These ingenious little organisms, are just the sort of animal that would evolve, adapt and even thrive there during such an unearthly wet season.If there is or was a puddle on Mars at some time, what kind of aliens would most likely spring to life in it if life there were possible and had a chance to evolve? We believe it would be something much like our little Aqua Aliens.

You may as well be hatching out a real Alien!

Kids will love it, young and old!

Great for a school project too! You can even use our story to help your with your project.
