Serious question for a moment. Why do they keep sending probes and vehicles to Mars? Are they still looking for signs or water or life? Is it general exploration? Are they trying to pinpoint one of those face rocks?  I remember lots of people getting excited for the landings of these vehicles but not much newsworthy every coming back once they land. |
Not so much life form search, but that is definitely factored in as one of the reasons. Main reason really is to make sure there are resources you can use in the event you do plan to terraform mars for human colonization. And the main thing you will need is water.
