Cass,
Well, the experiments we and other countries have placed on Mars have a 
varied systemic set of engineered experiments that detect physical elements, 
spectral radiation, and various media such as infrared. But so far as I know none 
of the on the ground experiments were devised to be enabled to detect 
bacteria or microbes directly or a means to identify the genus and species of the 
same if they were on Mars. This is because of the minutely gradiated incremental 
steps that the scientists have determined the best process points. First they 
want to understand the history of Mars geologically and also to determine it's 
evolvement comparitive to our knowledge to what has occurred on Earth. 
Secondly they want to determine what inorganic elements are present to enable them 
to hypothesize the dependent originations of same. Then they want to find 
Water, the very staff of life necesary to all organic life we know of in current 
theory of science. They are now hardly able to repress the announcement much 
longer as a formal Peer Finding that Mars had sufficient water to form Life 
there, however small, it upsets the idea the Life itself is confined to our world 
the Earth and found no where else in the Universe. Once this is proclamed that 
they have found Life on Mars or any other body, we then advance to a gradual 
incremental realization that Life is ubiquitous in the creation as Blavatsky 
and the Ancient Wisdom instruct . They have carefully avoided searching first 
for biological organisms preferring to first analyize the elements in a well 
thought out order of investigations. No I don't think we need fear Martian DNA at 
this stage of the exploration of Mars, if we do detect even dead lifeforms or 
remnents it will probably be simple organisms that have not evolved 
sufficient to compare to the much more complex template of the Human beings here on 
Earth, if there was Water and Salinity and chemical reactivity then maybe diatoms 
or simple bacteria or possibly microbes may reveal to us. Doing an Inventory 
of the Atomic elements present on Mars and the context as found is good 
science it doesn't imply a lust for riches at all. My view is man, as we advance in 
our process have always looked to the heavens and reached to touch the stars, 
so in our times we reach one by one to touch that which is our ancient 
inspiration, the planets that compose the procession of the Gods and in doing so it 
marks, signals, and some how completes an inner part of ourselves in our long 
pilgrimage.
