Extremely teeny-tiny mini-microbes found in Greenland have given scientists a lift as they dream of sending humans to Mars and other unfriendly climes.
These small creatures have survived at least 120,000 years, nearly two miles below a glacier.
One researcher said, "We are particularly interested in the formation of ultra-small cells as one possible stress-survival mechanism, whether they are starved, minute forms of known normal-sized microbes or intrinsically dwarf novel organisms, and also whether these cells are able to carry on metabolic processes while they are so highly stressed."
Yeah, sure. Just think of “Fantastic Voyage,” the movie that managed to make Raquel Welch and her various parts small.
Human beings shrunk to the size of angels on the head of a pin and sent off to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to … oh, you get it.
As philosopher, actor, writer, comedian, producer and fellow white-haired man Steve Martin put it so well so many years ago: “Let’s get small.”
