NASA makes official the news already given yesterday (see https://www.facebook.com/PianetaMarte.MdM/photos/a.1625578140858706/2265500936866420/) about the unusual high levels of methane detected by the Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) tunable laser spectrometer of Curiosity.
Unfortunately Curiosity is not able to determine whether this methane originates from the interaction of water with the rocks or if it is of bacterial origin, but the ESA TGO is able to determine the exact point of origin.
We confidently await the verdict!!!
