HUMANITY’S move to Mars may be off after researchers discovered bacteria on the Red Planet which could kill humans.

That's interesting, because so far we haven't detected any kind of life on Mars, not even microscopic life :) I think maybe the journalists at The Daily Express need to go back and read those science reports again, a bit more carefully this time!
