However, you should get two emails from GESY as one will be the claim from the Doctor and the second from the Laboratory carrying out the test. It is unlikely that eith...

In under a month, NASA’s Perseverance groundbreaking rover will land on Mars in search for evidence of ancient extraterrestrial life and carry the names of Cypriots among 11 million people.
