I’d put the chances of Mars sample return going off in the next couple decades at about 70%.

Lol … a probe or sample device gets picked up on Mars, sent back to earth carrying an exotic extra terrestrial virus that is indestructible. It infects our planet killing every biological organism on earth.
The Martians end up invading and conquering us … just not in the way we imagined.
Had me thinking about the Species movie at the start of your comment
I mean, anything? That’s got to be close enough to 100% to make no difference. Rocks in space hit planets, pieces break off at escape velocity, they become the space rocks that hit other planets. I doubt there’s a solid body in the inner solar system that doesn’t have at least a little bit of Mars on it.
Even if an ice asteroid crashed and vaporized some semblance of an atmosphere onto the planet the solar wind would strip it off because there’s no magnetic field.
It’s a dead rock. Better to look to Jupiter’s moons than Mars.
What are the chances that this question came from Uranus?
Said the astronomer from his observatory in Uruguay
I would say 0% to >0%
My tinfoil hat theory that is all in jest is that Mars was “First Earth” and it got real fucked up and anything that was there got wiped out and what we see now is all that’s left of it.
One million to one
Million in one chances crop up nine times out of ten.
A wise decision. There are extensive proofs written by Prof. Ridcully D.Thau., D.M., D.S., D. Mn., D.G., D.D., D.C.L., D.M. Phil., D.M.S., D.C.M., D.W., B.El.L. of UU.
So you’re telling me there’s a chance?! -LC
And still they come

Zero.
What do you mean by “coming from?” We get scientific knowledge from it. If you mean something physical, we are planning to do a sample return mission by the end of the decade. For something not from us, we very very occasionally get done ejects from it. The chances of anything being alive are basically nil.
We’ve been there. For decades. You know that, right?
