I was going to suggest that you cover a species of bacillus bacteria from Morocco that apparently beat the tardigrade’s record for the highest temperature a living organism can survive. I think they said some could survive 300 degrees Celsius. They might not know enough about them yet for a video, but this reminded me of that story I saw.

i thought the same thing but thought maybe it was just me. It's too bad the cellular, animal, tribal, and civilized stages of development in that game were so short compared to the endless space stage. I had the most fun as a single celled organism and in the tribal stage, but blew through both stages in about an hour each, and i wasnt even in a rush.

I love rotifers. A while ago I got a microscope and thought it would be fun to keep tardigrades in a petri dish....didn’t quite work since it was hard to find enough of them from the same species so they could reproduce, didn’t eat each other, and keeping them away from nematodes long enough to not have the threat of being hunted by them so they were usually gone by the month or so. Some time later I got a sample of spanish moss and found it had little variety of micro species living on it, mostly rotifers.... three years now and I still have rotifers in the petri dish.

Misha Anton , superdau is right. 20-40x is perfect for finding and observing them. 100x you get pretty close and can look at them in detail, or start to see the structure of cells. When it comes to creatures like this my main suggestion is to keep them in filtered low chlorine water or rain water, chlorine can be quite the shock for many of the little creatures.

A stereo microscope can be a good option, you can find them from as low as 5x up to 400x or more, depending on the price and power you would like, they are great for looking at insects, coins, rocks, etc. since they use top light, you can find some with bottom light as well which is good for looking at slides. Take away: 5-10x is good for looking at bugs, jewelry, coins... a good magnifying glass can cover these magnifications. 20-40x is good for looking at these little creatures 100-200x you start looking at cells Higher magnification= harder to focus just right Top illumination is good for solid objects (and some see through) Bottom illumination is good for see through objects

I had it saved onto my old phone in my notes because it was so interesting to me, it is even part of my writing, but when my phone got destroyed I lost those notes and forgot the name of the creature, I looked up horizontal gene transfer because that was the main thing I remembered from it, but couldn't find anything but generic terms like "used by some bacteria" So happy I found this gem randomly on my home!

At first glance this seems like an interesting phenomenon. I was hoping you may have done a bit of research particularly into how, after having their DNA crunched by radiation or lack of water, the rotifers have a means, mechanism, plan or program to reorder a soup of unconnected bases. Now that would have been interesting.

Freezing is just one way of bringing metabolism to a standstill .. desiccation is another one, without the problematic crystallization issue that tears all major molecular structures of the cell apart. As dying of thirst seems to be pretty much irreversible in humans, I'm not too sure if this approach is very viable alternative to freezing to death. I mean all of them work, unfortunately just irreversibly in one direction.

All that gene (swapping?splicing?)Are they still the same critters, or a hybrid, or what? I'm so confused!

The same basic critter but with a lot of extensions, They've no use for things like wings or eyes, just neat chemical pathways.

This is actually how sonic the hedgehog got created. Aliens turned all life into bio goo and things got mixed together and put back together and created mutated part human part animal creatures with super powers like sonic and knuckles.

To send some stuff over the internet, the data is ripped apart in several packets, right? (my teachers, uhm, varied in quality) So, understanding and applicating this reassembly processes might provide advantages in data management... And if there, of course you could use it in other mathematical tasks like sorting, big equations, HR simulations, etc... If you see _all life and the world_ as a giant computer (Ray Kurzweil, awesome theories), self repairing DNA might be some equivalent to quantum computing? Spoiler: it's massive parallel but relatively slow.

If you freak out about bdelloids ability to withstand radioactive radiation or desiccation, than just look at what deinococcus radiodurans is capable of. And while horizontal gene transfer is indeed not typical for eukaryotes, it's also not that uncommon, even among vertebrates. Over 1% of all human genes are supposed to have arisen this way, although very likely mostly due to retroviruses.

You can tell this was fillmed a while ago because Hank still has his old glasses.

Oh that's what things are. I saw them several times under the microscope and assumed they are some kind of tiny worms but i guess they are not worms.
