 Close-up encounter ... pictures said to show fossilised microbacteria Slideshows 'Life' from Mars ... detailed meteorite surface |
NASA scientists believe these are the first pictures of a colony of Martians - in the UK.
The microscopic aliens are on a slice of a meteorite in London's Natural History Museum.
The scientists, who used a scanning electron microscope to take snaps, say the bumpy surface resembles a fossilised colony of microbacteria - a simple form of life.
The meteorite from Mars fell on Egypt in 1911.
