Don't worry, the chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one
D.S.
As far as life goes, the total quantity of it derived from Mars is squat. But, you have to remember planet Earth has gone a knockin' on that door many a time, so it's possible that something might come from Mars having originated on Earth.
Mars is worryingly close to the Asteroid Belt and shows signs of having been disproportionately hit throughout it's own history, so the idea of going there for 'safe keeping' is completely nuts.
I'm all for Mars exploration, maybe even visit, but it would be a hellish place to live. Who wants to live on a planet where walking outside is sure death without an environmental suit?
Where you would live in a small enclosed structure. If it had windows, nothing outside. No trees, or plants, birds, butterflies. Just a dead landscape. Mars has no magnetic field so it is directly bombarded by the Sun and interstellar solar winds. So there is no protection on the surface.
Mars wobbles a lot more than Earth so it wouldn't have a stable climate. Even if you had the technology to terraform the planet the atmosphere would still be ravaged by the Sun and who knows if that environment would be at all stable.
