The moon with high vacuum, wide temperature difference, strong radiation and harsh environment is likely to have life now, and this kind of life is also the most "indestructible" species on earth-water bear worm.

Agence France-Presse reported on the 7th that there is an "indestructible" life on the earth, which can withstand extreme radiation, extreme high temperature and extreme low temperature in the universe, and even survive for decades without food. Now, they may have settled on the moon.

According to the report, this seemingly terrible creature is not an alien, but a kind of earth microorganism called "slow-moving animal", commonly known as "water bear worm".

Why did life on earth "run" to the moon? It all started four months ago.

In April this year 1 1, Israel's first lunar probe "Berea" landed on the moon. However, less than 10 km from the surface of the moon, the main engine of Genesis suddenly broke down.

Xinhua News Agency previously reported that according to Israel Aerospace Industry Corporation, Genesis had a technical failure, lost contact with the ground and crashed on the surface of the moon. The first privately sponsored lunar probe failed. But when Genesis crashed, it left something for the moon. ...

Agence France-Presse said that Genesis once carried the "Moon Library" of the non-profit organization Arch Mission Foundation, which is a digital archive with 30 million pages of information. It also carries samples of human DNA and water bears.

How to transport water bear worms on the way to the moon? Nova spivak, one of the founders of the Arched Mission Foundation, gave the answer: The size of these microorganisms is less than1mm. Before being sent into space, they were dehydrated, went into suspended animation, and were "wrapped in artificial amber (an epoxy resin), which should be able to resurrect in the future.
