Methane was discovered on Mars in 2003 in greater abundance than expected; because the gas is readily produced by biological activity, it is considered a key biomarker for signs of life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can say in some respect [that] Mars can host life, but can it host life now?\u201d asked <a title=\"Jack McConnell profile\" href=\"http:\/\/www.physics.yorku.ca\/people\/mcconnell.html\">Jack McConnell<\/a>, professor of atmospheric science at York. \u201cMars has a bit of an ozone layer but it\u2019s thin.
