摘要
For almost 50 years the planet Mars has been investigated using spacecraft. The search for evidence of life on this planet is among the main tasks of these investigations. This paper discusses some results of the expeditions to Mars and the targets of the future exploration of Europa, one of the four Galileo moons of Jupiter. The search for possible evidence of life on Europa is also a part of new projects. Physical conditions on Mars and Europa are comparable to those on the Earth.
