Title: Microbes survie prolonged exposure to space

This is an interesting article: Beer microbes live 553 days outside ISS (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-11039206) I thought some of you guys would enjoy it. Those are definitely some resilient microbes.

I'm not surprised, but I bet most scientists are!
