A Gallery Of Martian Fossils
Over two years of findings condensed to some highlights
Page Link:
Because of the huge volume of material and postings on this site, I have selected a few of the fossil highlights and have placed them on this gallery page.  This will allow new visitors to the site to get a clear idea of the types of marine organisms that lived on Mars in the past.  Some might still live underground today, located in caverns or other protected environments.

Follow the page links to detailed explanations and links to the original NASA/JPL images as they are on their site.  More material will be added to this page so that a fairly complete gallery to some of the more common Martian fossils will be available here.
