By the way, the bacteria on the exterior of the space station? I'm calling it now, not of alien origin. We don't need to grasp at straws for a cool story here: 𝕥𝕙𝕖𝕣𝕖 𝕒𝕣𝕖 𝕓𝕒𝕔𝕥𝕖𝕣𝕚𝕒 𝕠𝕟 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕖𝕩𝕥𝕖𝕣𝕚𝕠𝕣 𝕠𝕗 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕤𝕡𝕒𝕔𝕖 𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕥𝕚𝕠𝕟
@falkreon And what about the tardigrades? :D
@Baerd Have they found tardigrades up there too? They can definitely survive a hard vacuum like that, but I haven't seen anything saying that. Just "and other organisms". You know what, yeah. I bet they mean tardigrades X)
@falkreon tthe tardis originally came from earth and was "let out", if my memory iis goos.
Sad fact : since the station is in microathmospheric situation, the bacteria (i didn't understand your post : did they found or "let out" bacterias?) may come from earth
@falkreon I precisely meant "from earth with humans transportation" ofc :)
@Baerd They swabbed the exterior of the station and found a variety of organisms that weren't there at launch. The problem is, the station has been up there for decades with frequent crew rotations and resupplies, so it's almost definitely from earth.
