Jinn?
According to critics, an eavesdropper, constantly striving to go behind the curtains of heaven in order to steal divine secrets. May grant wishes.

Potential evidence for Martian microbe-like life

Methane Making Microbes On Mars? Maybe. Two scientific teams have detected the gas in the Martian atmosphere. Since it breaks down within a few hundred years in Martian conditions, some process must be adding it to the atmosphere.BBC News:
Scientists see two possibilities, both of them scientifically important, but one of them is sensational. It is possible that the methane is being produced by volcanic activity. Lava deposited on to the surface, or released underground, could produce the gas. This explanation has some difficulties, however. So far, no active volcanic hotspots have been detected on the planet by the many spacecraft currently in orbit. ... On Earth, bacteria produce methane from hydrogen and carbon dioxide. Terrestrial microbes that produce the gas do not need oxygen to thrive, and these are thought to be the type of microbes that could possibly live on Mars.
