The 1976 Viking landers' experiment that fed nutrient to Martian soil and recorded gas release consistent with metabolism, then failed to find organics. Levin argued for life until his death; most colleagues attribute the result to perchlorate chemistry. Speakers on the channel present Levin's case; the reanalyses are linked here.

Passage

The "active" agent in the Mars sample is stable to 18 degrees C, but is substantially inactivated by heat treatment for 3 hours at 50 degrees C and completely inactivated at 160 degrees C, as would be anticipated if the active response were caused by microorganisms… Available facts do not yet permit a conclusion regarding the existence of life on Mars.
