Wouldn't oil be suggestive of previous life?

Use the oil taru's talking about or just bring our own fuel for a round trip. Send an oil tanker or something into Martian orbit a few years before the actual manned mission. Humans get there, do their studies (easily done by robotic emissaries) and when they're done, they launch into Martian orbit, dock with the tanker to refuel and launch home.

I don't think we even have the reactor to use that hydrogen fuel. But yeah, I think they said it was on the moon.

yeah, i was pretty much just being silly... but I would venture to say that space mining might be an option in the very very distant future...
