Umm, no. It does not exist in radioactive matter -- it may 'exist' in the presence of radioactivity. Which is a far cry from 'has metabolic activity in presence of radioactivity'. Same goes for 'virtual absolute zero', which seems quite ridiculous of a statement. So much, I'm not sure where to begin.

Life seems to get everywhere, even deep within the Earth. It does seem quite likely that, somehow, somewhere, something on Mars and Europa are merrily dividing and consuming resources.
