ESA's Mars Express is searching for signs of life around the Red Planet. Evidence about available water will help engineers to judge the practicalities of sending astronauts to Mars. We are the first inhabitants of the Earth who, by astronomy and interplanetary projects, can explore the cosmic machinery that gave us birth, and search for existing life elsewhere. But we are also capable of carrying life into space ourselves. ESA is fully engaged in the pursuit of both forms of life in space, human and alien.
