NASA Discovers bacteria which uses Arsenic

RE: NASA Discovers bacteria which uses Arsenic
(December 2, 2010 at 6:49 pm)Paul the Human Wrote: The reason this is important to NASA is that it greatly expands the possibility of life existing 'elsewhere', like Titan or Europa, perhaps. That is an exciting possibility! It changes the concept of 'life as we know it' to a fascinating extent, because it means that lifeforms may very well exist in environments that were previously considered unfit for life. It makes me wish I could live long enough to learn what we'll find out there someday.

I actually wrote an essay on this exact thing for school once (and people thought I was crazy)
Quote:"An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity. "
Martin Luther King, Jr.
