Is Mars Habitable? is a critical examination of Professor Percival Lowell's theories on the potential for life on Mars, published in 1907 by Alfred Russel Wallace. Wallace challenges Lowell's claims from his book Mars and Its Canals, particularly the idea that Mars has irrigation canals suggesting intelligent life. He presents scientific evidence to refute the notion of Mars as a habitable planet, focusing on its harsh climate and lack of water. The work serves as an important discourse on early astronomical observations and the scientific method in evaluating extraterrestrial life.
