New slogan I need on every billboard, podcast ad, cereal box, news ticker, etc:
> "Symptom management" is lifesaving for disabled people. You do not understand.

But the surprises didn’t stop there! We also found #microorganisms and #parasites preserved in the fecal matrix:

Bacilli bacteria 🦠 and Actinomycete biofilms
Fungal hyphae and spores 🍄
Cyanobacteria 🦠 (ingested from the water)
Putative tapeworm eggs 🪱—direct evidence of parasitism in the Permian!

We can consider three possible responses to the discovery of indigenous life on #Mars 🔴

• Leave it alone
• Alter Mars to enhance the chances of that biota to become a global scale biology
• Collect samples for laboratory preservation, then replace or augment it with #terrestrial life forms

It is very unlikely that we would drive to extinction any native #Martian #microorganisms 🦠 by extending the habitability of Mars
