Cyanobacteria is likely one of the bacteria species will help Mars colonization by sustainably growing in Mars soils and environment conditions.
It is known that cyanobacteria helped oxygenation of our planet Earth atmosphere about 2.4 billion years ago. Furthermore, cyanobacteria can not only fix carbondioxide but also nitrogen as well.
