This is an absolutely fantastic experiment and probably part of the reason I'm a biologist today. Keeping a single experiment going for so long is quite a feat, and it has payed off handsomely. Lots of great science came out of the Lenski lab in the last 30 years, not least because of the consistency and thoroughness of their work. Glad to see the LTEE moving on to a new chapter - many happy landings!
