Here's something cool from the Q & A section:
How do the extreme conditions at the summit lake compare with the conditions scientist estimate existed on Earth when the earliest life forms first appeared (on Earth) millions of years ago?
Asked by: Dennis Mitchell , 8th Grade
Answer: You have the same atmospheric pressure, the same range of temperature, a similar high-UV radiation environment, and the lakes on Mars were probably frozen part of the year. Sedimentation likely occurred the same way in both places, and both would be hydrothermal environments. It is an almost perfect environment.
