For those following how lifeforms can survive in (what for us seem to be) extreme conditions. Report of an 2018 experiment testing a bacteria that has spores which can survive 420 °C. Yes, 420 °C - that's the temperature that melts zinc. https://t.co/0p4k

Hokey smokes. 🔥🔥🔥

Bacillus species are spore-formers. In spore form they can survive temperatures, chemicals, radiation and other assaults, for better or for worse. Strain identification is very important for strains used in... https://t.co/FDFrLVbXyS
#Extremophile #Physiology: Spores of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens have been found to tolerate a dry heat of 420C. They can germinate & grow after this exposure, & their #DNA is able to replicate accurately. The melting point of Lead is 327.5C. https:
