Probable Meets Possible: When Life Gets Weird
Kate Adamala and Trinity Hamilton from the College of Biological Sciences at the University of Minnesota discuss how tiny life forms on the fringes may illuminate huge truths about life in the universe. What do microbes that live on glaciers and in snow on Earth tell us about the potential for life on Mars? What can a cell made from scratch in a lab reveal about how life may have originated here on Earth—and beyond? This research on extremophiles and synthetic cells provides a unique take on life that may shed important insights into space travel and extraterrestrial life.
