Scientific paper

An important test of the hypothesis that Martian meteorite ALH84001 contains fossil remnants of an ancient Martian biota is the thermal history of the carbonate rosettes associated with the proposed biomarkers. If carbonates formed at temperatures over approximately 110 C (the limit for terrestrial life), it is unlikely that these minerals are associated with a terrestrial-like biota.
