Life on Mars? Life on Earth? -- by Marie-Claire Wilson.
Earth, the third planet from the Sun, is situated between Venus, the second planet, and Mars, the fourth planet. Mars is the most important planet with respect to ours.

Recently, in addition to Dead Mars, Dying Earth, we became partners in the scientific discovery called oxygen inventory depletion, or OID, in which the Earths oxygen levels were discovered to be dropping.
