Life from Mars theory put to test

One theory being tested is whether life could have arrived on Earth from Mars.

University of Aberdeen experts had the rock attached to an unmanned Russian craft and found life would probably only survive in a large meteorite.

Further details about the experiment will be revealed at the Highland Science Festival on 3 November.

A slab quarried from Cruaday, Sandwick, was sent to Vienna to be specially sculpted into the right shape.
