I'm curious about those tartigrades. Will the scientists put them in the water and bring them back to life? As far as I know about tartigrades, once immersed in water, the body returns to a normal metabolic state over the course of a few hours, even though they died hundreds of years ago.
- luhn 8y agoThe current record for tartigrade revival is 30 years. These recently found ones are many thousands of years, I think revival is unlikely.
- gnulinux 8y agoWhy is revival after 30 years of freeze an easier problem than revival after 2000 years? Entropy?
- rebuilder 8y agoI thought they were found in water?
