Is Mars Habitable?

Exploring the possibility of life on Mars, Alfred Russel Wallace delves into the planet's conditions and potential for habitation. Drawing on scientific observations of the time, he examines the atmospheric and environmental factors that could support life. Wallace's work reflects the scientific curiosity of the late 19th century and contributes to the ongoing discussion about extraterrestrial life, blending natural history with speculative inquiry. His insights remain relevant to contemporary debates on planetary exploration and astrobiology.
