    I like to fall asleep to various history *: and science shows, this will make a great addition when it eventually makes it there.

      Did you mean to make this comment in another topic? Because it will probably be a few billion years before the extromophile bacteria this article is about are able to produce their own history...

          If so, while not exactly the same, The Blue Planet had a segment on extremophiles living in/around volcanic vents at the bottom of the ocean, that might interest you: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p004htvq

              Lol, my buddy has an IBM 5150 if you want it. I hope you enjoy the rest of your life in this timeline. Seriously though can we focus on extremophile bacteria?

              Seriously though can we focus on rampart extremophile bacteria?
