Most scientific planets agree that serious situations of Mars are can’t live in life as we know. The new research, however, suggests that we can pretend to be stiffness in lichens.

Polish researchers reveal that some Lichen species can endure a Mars-like around while remaining biologically activated. As detailed in a LEARN Published on Monday Journal Ima Fungus, their work challenged the widespread idea that the face of Mars was, in the present situation, in its present condition, unable to host any kind of life.

Researchers try two species in Lichen: Muscorum in diplocstees and Cetaria Aculeata. Lichens odd, foreign-looking forms consisting of various organisms: fungi and algae and / cyanobacteria (a kind of photosynthetic bacteria. They are impressive to resist the cruel surroundings, including Frozen in Tundras and Desert.

Explosive to researchers Moss and C. Aculeata In Mars-like councils at atmosphere, including simulated air pressure and temperature change, within five hours. They also have the sum of X-ray radiation Mars to experience a year of serious solar activity. Moss made better than C. Aculeata: Its fungus is maintained metabolism (The executives of life chemical reactions that give force) throughout the experiment.

“Our study was the first show that the metabolism of the Fungal partner in Lichen Simbopais remains active while a biologist of March, a biologist of Jagiellonian University, a Penstoft Publisher statement (Penstoft prints ima fungus). “We’ve seen that Muscorum in diplocstees managed to make metabolic processes and effectively active defense mechanisms. “

Results indicate that Moss can live on top of the Mars. This research challenges the mind that ionizing radiation (a form of high energy radiation including x-rays and gamma rays is a definite obstacle to life.

“These findings expand our understanding of biological processes adapted to Martian situations and revealed how hydrated radiation – is one of the most critical challenges for Mars survivor,” Saddała has explained. Hydrated organisms are organisms whose compositions have enough water to maintain biological functions. “In the end, this research deepens our knowledge of lichen and their potential for colonious extraterrestrial environments.”

Meanwhile – as far as I know – the NASA doesn’t look at Mars with Lichen whenever, this study opens the door to see what kinds of life live out of the ground.
