Apparently there are spiders on Mars. I read an interesting page on it this morning, found here:

To be honest it reminded me of Ziggy Stardust the song by Bowie - the musician, not my cat - specifically this one line "And the Spiders from Mars" which is now going round and round my head and likely will be all day...
I've noticed when something like a song lyric is stuck in my head I'll randomly sing it out loud at different times. Sometimes when I'm in the queue at the shop, can be embarrassing lol. I wonder if it's a stim in a way?
Or just me being weird as usual?
Apparently, Venus used to have an environment like Earth.
Could that have been the Garden of Eden?
Mars had oxygen before Earth did, and through a different mechanism.
On earth we needed life to produce oxygen
Mars managed to have the right conditions to do it through changing iron oxidation states entirely inorganically.
