    TEXT: 
  DL=, /LP, /TX  WASHINGTON - Researchers testing a meteorite from Mars claim to have found 
    evidence that primitive life once lived on the red planet. Other 
    scientists, however, scoffed Tuesday and said stronger evidence is needed. 
     
       Scientists from NASA and three universities report in a paper to be 
    published next week that chemical and microscopic tests of a rock from Mars 
    detected organic compounds deposited in such a way that they could have 
    come only from biological activity. 
     
  /TX      They also report seeing shapes that "resemble some forms of fossilized 
    filamentous bacteria," although much smaller. 
       When studying these factors, the researchers report, "we conclude that 
    they are evidence for primitive life on early Mars." 
     
       Carl Sagan, a leading authority on the search for extraterrestrial life, 
    called the findings "evocative and very exciting." But he said the chemical 
    compounds reported in the paper "are not evidence of life." 
     
       "I want everybody to understand that we are not talking about little 
    green men here," said Daniel Goldin, the administrator of the National 
    Aeronautics and Space Administration. He called the findings "exciting, 
    even compelling, but not conclusive." 
     
       Other scientists said that the organic compounds found by the 
    researchers could have been formed without life and one stated flatly: "I 
    don't believe it." 
     
       The study is to be published next week in the journal Science. Draft 
    copies were released by the journal Tuesday after the contents were leaked. 
     
       Past or present existence of life on Mars has been considered a 
    possibility ever since studies by spacecraft landers showed that water was 
    once present on the planet surface. 
       None of the Martian landers, however, found evidence that life now 
    exists on Mars, nor did the robot craft find chemical markers for life in 
    limited soil samples that have been analyzed. 
     
       The researchers say in the paper that a rock from space recovered in 
    Antarctica contains organic compounds that could only have been deposited 
    by biological activity. 
     
       The new findings center on a meteorite called Allan Hills 84001, the 
    oldest of 12 pieces of rock that earlier studies confirmed as originating 
    from Mars. It is thought the rocks were jolted away from Mars by some 
    massive collision in ancient times and then drifted in space until they 
    fell to Earth.
