Virus
Revision as of 10:32, 29 January 2024 by RichardWSmith (talk | contribs) (Mentioned that virus' are parasitic. No discussion if they are 'alive'.)
A virus is a parasitic form of life that can live only inside a living cell. (It hijacks the cell's molecular machinery to reproduce itself.) With respect to Mars this means that if there are no native Martian microbes, there are no native Martian Viruses either.
Viruses will come with humans to Mars and be part of a settlement biological system.
