Among all extant terrestrial species, only Homo sapiens exhibits distinctive biological disharmony—chronic musculoskeletal disorders, circadian rhythm misalignment, and environmental vulnerability. These phenomena suggest that humanity may not be an indigenous evolutionary product of Earth. This study combines the historical migration of the solar system's habitable zone with human physiological data to propose the Martian Origin Hypothesis: that humans are descendants of "interplanetary refugees" who migrated from ancient Mars to Earth. Human intrinsic circadian rhythm (24.5-25 hours) aligns with Mars' rotational period (24.6 hours), while human skeletal structure displays characteristics optimized for Martian gravity (0.38G). Furthermore, the migration of the Goldilocks Zone from Mars to Earth approximately 4 billion years ago, driven by increasing solar luminosity, provides astrophysical motivation for interplanetary migration. This research presents a novel interpretive framework for human origins through an interdisciplinary approach.
