Viking Landers Might Have Missed Martian Organics

Sonny Yatsen writes "A new study suggests that the Viking Landers might have found organic compounds on Mars, but failed to recognize them because of the methodology used to detect organics. The findings may suggest specific strategies that would improve on the way organic compounds are detected on the red planet."

Fox isn't news

[Ramin_HAL9001]

I'm not defending Democrats, advocating any political party when I say this, but Fox isn't news. The GOP+Fox have consolidated their power and have formed an authoritarian state, whoever posted this seems to be ignorant of that.

If its a story presented on Fox, then its intention is to make you hate the Democratic government (as if we needed the help). It isn't news and it isn't about Big Brother or your rights to privacy. The only reason a Fox story should ever be on Slashdot is to warn everyone of just how much the right-wing US government wants to take away our rights to open source, open internet, DRM-free artwork, etc., while squashing opposition to their corporate backers, all the while lying to you trying to make you think their standing up for your rights by drawing your attention to such a stupid story like this.

Barrack Hussein Obama made you say that, and you have obviously been duped by the liberal media. It is clear that if you distrust glorious FOX News, you are not as patriotic as the rest of us who follow such masters of logic as Limbaugh and Beck. Stop trying to think for yourself, let Bill O'Reilly decide for you (nevermind his complete oblivion to that known as "fact"), and your simple mind will be much happier (unless Islamist extremists or Mexicans move in next door to you - you don't when them in your backyard, and they are invading American neighborhoods). In conclusion, fair and balanced, U.S.A! U.S.A! U.S.A.!
