There's no date on the website, but the article itself
refers to 'today' as being November 19, 2001.

"The findings are contained in a report titled "Magnetite 
 morphology and life on Mars," which is scheduled to be 
 published TODAY (Nov. 19, 2001) in the Proceedings Of 
 The National Academy Of Sciences."

They probably just updated the advertisement on an old article 
on their website. The article content didn't change, but
google looked at only the timestamp on the web page and 
mistakenly thought it was a new article.
