Scientists find new bacteria species

NEW DELHI, India (CNN) -- Indian scientists have discovered three new species of bacteria in Earth's upper stratosphere that are resistant to ultraviolet radiation, researchers said.

The bacteria do not match any species found on Earth. They were found in samples that scientists collected when they sent a balloon into the stratosphere, the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) said in a statement Monday.

That layer of the Earth receives heavy doses of ultraviolet radiation, enough to kill most organisms.

In their analyses of the retrieved samples, microbiologists detected 12 bacterial and six fungal colonies.

Of them, three bacterial colonies were new species, the ISRO said.

Indian scientists named one of them Janibacter hoylei, after astrophysicist Fred Hoyle.

"While the present study does not conclusively establish the extraterrestrial origin of microorganisms, it does provide positive encouragement to continue the work in our quest to explore the origin of life," the ISRO said

Thats pretty cool, although its probably NWO propaganda...

first sulfur and now radiation.

And to think scientists can be so sure of everything they "know".

Maybe we haven't been able to collect these samples efficiently and in a large enough number to record them until now. I see many more technological and biological "breakthroughs" looming over us as our technology gets progressively better. These "breakthroughs" may be millions of years old, but new to us. Maybe its the seed of life? Maybe it's GOD. Humans are so ignorant when it comes to things they don't understand. I do think that's our biggest downfall, and cause for uniting against something. The N.W.O. knows this.

Here's my grain of salt. .

95% or so of bacteria in regular seawater is uncataloged because we can't culture it yet. If you can't culture it, it didn't happen as far as science cares.

They're still just bacteria, no matter how new of a species they are claimed to be. It definitely doesn't prove anything beneficial to Darwin's theory on the origin of species.

How do you know that? By the way, what's a "SOP response"?

standard operation procedure (predictable cliche).

I didn't KNOW, I think it's a reasonable guess (I don't care if I'm wrong, but it'd be nice if you have fresher things to say once in a while)

I'm just keeping it real.

What? No I didn't.

They are new in that they are 'New to Us.' Stop Winding Theo up.

They have some remarkable features thats for sure.

And I really don't enjoy the Sop responses of the dogmatists no matter how much of a troll I may appear to be
