The 2005 researcher show that martian atmosphere has methane, which is unstable and can only be produced by organic activity. So chances are that there can be atleast microbial organism on mars. May be. May be not. I didn't find any other article saying this finding was a mistake or the article was a fake. So what does the atheists and theists here think about this? I believe there is life outside the earth for sure. I'd like to have you guys' opinions or if anyone has, the truth about this.
My opinion is that it would be interesting to find life outside the confines of our planet but I have not come across any scientific revelations that have confirmed it.
Here is one thing that I have found, a quote from the NASA web site:
“At the moment, life on Earth is the only known life in the universe, but there are compelling arguments to suggest we are not alone.” This claim is made by Neil deGrasse Tyson a well known astrophysicist in an article entitled The Search for Life in the Universe, Reflections on the Scientific and Cultural Implications of Finding Life in the Cosmos. Search the NASA website and read the rest of the article, very interesting stuff. Also note that Neil has a twitter account and has contributed to NOVA on PBS and also has several very interesting and educational vids on you tube.
The article that you refer to kriskiran seems to indicate that of the methane found, “…..if you find methane in an atmosphere, you can suspect there is life. It's not proof, but it makes it worth a much closer look."(italics are mine) I also have not found any other articles following up on these discoveries. It seems that nothing yet is conclusive but only possibilities.
Also, I have searched through NASA and not been able to find any conclusive evidence indicating possible life anywhere, even on Mars.

Oh, sorry Spatium, I just remembered your visiting friends. Welcome Maylegons: peace, love, namaste.
NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE OR WHAT YOU BELIEVE, THE GREATEST GIFT TO MANKIND IS THE GIFT OF LIFE.
