Panspermia/Complexity Analysis of the Viking Labeled Release Experiments

Complexity in the dirt
The 1976 Viking's Mission to Mars conducted a labelled release experiment and found that in Mars, microbial life was present. .

Methods
These experiments displayed circadian rhythms. The release of Carbon Dioxide which is usually released by live organisms while the experiments were taking place may indicate a robust biological response.

Results
These analyses support the interpretation that the Viking LR experiment did detect extant microbial life on Mars.
