Antarctic fungi could survive on Mars!

European scientists launched a colony of tiny fungi from Antarctica to the International Space Station (ISS) to see if microorganisms could survive in environmental conditions similar to Mars. After 18 months on board the ISS, the researchers found out that the fungi could not only live in a Mars-like environment, they may even colonize the Read More
