Description

Donald Goldsmith. In Aug. 1996, scientists from NASA announced that an ancient meteorite that had plunged to Earth from Mars revealed evidence of primitive life. This remarkable discovery represented the first real clue that life may have existed elsewhere in the universe. Now, award-winning astronomer Goldsmith tells the complete story of this groundbreaking discovery in one of the greatest scientific detective stories of our time. He takes us step by step along the extraordinary path of scientific detection, from the Antarctic deep freeze to the barren plains of Mars to the high-tech labs where the Martian rock yielded its secrets. This is science writing at its provocative best.
