Brazilian researchers have discovered a new species of archaea in the extreme environment of Deception Island in Antarctica, where the organism thrives in high-temperature hydrothermal vents, surviving without light and demonstrating unique adaptations that could provide insights into extraterrestrial life. #NewSpecies #ExtremeEnvironment #Microorganisms #BR #AQ
Brazilian researchers have discovered a new species of archaea in the extreme environment of Deception Island in Antarctica, an active volcano with unique hot fumaroles, which allows the organism to thrive at temperatures close to 100 °C, a feat that could enhance our understanding of potential extraterrestrial life. #Microorganisms #Extremophiles #Antarctica #BR #AQ
