How do they know this isn’t from earth, taken there on the rover?
Would be weird if it is in any way similar to earth fungi - could be from earth or evidence of Panspermia theory.

Actually I’d take panspermia as most exciting! Life in the rest of the universe too!
> perhaps fungi may have been transported to Mars already attached to the rover
And another photo of a dark patch emerging from a seam on the rover. Seems to be to be pretty suggestive of Earth being the source.
A crazy scenario would be if Mars becomes covered in mushroom-based life that evolves distinctly from life on Earth.
