Yep, it's a rock.

No doubt you've turned over a rock in your lifetime and found something interesting living under it, no?

I hope I'm alive for the day someone goes to Mars and a full excavation gets underway.

aparently they found evidance that mars used to have water ( clifs formed by running water, rocks that can only be made in sustained contact with water) at which time life may have arissen, however the water was blown away in by solar winds because mars had insafissient gravity and atmosphere, they say there could still be moister and possably Bacteria in underground caves.

if there was any sea life it is now trapped in an ice chunk floating in space

how long could someone survive in space without a space suit, assuming the best conditions

I can't quite tell what the best conditions would be.

All air in your lungs would immediately be forced out. That would probably happen through your mouth, but it's possible that your chest would pop like a balloon. You would have a sudden and critical case of the bends, causing sharp pains in every joint and probably stopping you from moving in any way. And every fluid in your body would boil and evaporate away.

Sooo... I'm going to say about half a second.

I used to think that about the fluids too, but it's not the case. You'd experience some swelling, perhaps up to twice your normal size, but the tissues are elastic enough to keep from bursting. But all the fluids in the body are under pressure already, simply from tissues and membranes, thus while the temperature at which blood and other fluids boil is reduced, it remains above 37 degrees C. You can expect your saliva and tears to boil off, which is surely an interesting sensation.

We've demonstrated it on animals, which show that complete recovery is normal for exposures shorter than 90 seconds, much longer if breathing is not impaired. The only human examples are brief and non-fatal accidents, and one of a series of human experiments for the Luftwaffe on prisoners at Dachau camp in 1942.

Rapid decompression can cause physical trauma.


Other exposure dangers in space include radiation and dust particles, which travel at very high speed. Cold isn't much of a problem: most heat loss of earth occurs from conduction, which is... rather limited in a vacuum. Only heat radiation is an issue, a long-term one.

:

the best place in space to be is definitely the surface of planet Earth, though I'd be very choosy about my precise location. Lots of places to be that are as inhospitable as the vacuum of space.

Dust. You know dust? Sand, really, and finer. Little stones. Micrometeorites. They're not actually common, even in the asteroid belt any pebble is likely kilometers away from its neighbour. Still, wouldn't like to get hit by one. Be like getting shot.
