A similar colony made the same flight on April 20th. Despite being zapped by radiation 25x more intense than Earth-normal and freezing solid in temperatures as low as -60C, those bacteria are now thriving in the students AP Biology Lab in Bishop, California. They seemed to enjoy their ride to the top of Earths atmosphere. Will these bacteria fare as well? When the bacteria landed in a remote area of Nevada, they hit the desert floor hard; the agar went splat at the moment of impact. Today, the students are culturing the battered bacteria to find out how hardy they really are. spaceweather/images2014/05may14/splat.jpg?PHPSESSID=n7efvg0cgdrg947vhvv9jnh9s6
